Yes, I have done it before as well as other barbell complexes in the past. They are a good workout but they cut into recovery time for my heavy workouts. I like my conditioning work to be sport specific. Also, the competition I'm training for is very heavy so conditioning is on the back burner at the moment.

have you ever tried the Bear Complex? it's a Crossfit exercise, but it's a killer workout, one rep = power clean + front squat + push press + back squat + behind the neck push press. That is 1 rep, a set must be 7 reps long, and the bar must never touch the ground...
If you think that's not hard, try it with 80kg, you will be dead tierd by the 3rd rep...
I think it could help you a lot on the conditioning side of your strongman training.
