Because a broad jump with a heavy kettlebell in your hands sounds like a terrible accident waiting to happen

A better exercise would be a overhead kettlebell throw. It will still encompass the triple extension but also do so in a vertical plane. But for safety I'd use a heavy medicine ball.

Bounding and medium to high box depth jumps are not recommended for weak people.

It depends on what you mean by the word "plyos".

You're thinking too much.
If an overanalyzer like me tells you that then you need to pause and think about it.
Oh wait, nevermind, DON'T THINK ABOUT IT. STOP THINKING.
Your only worry should be "I have to get stronger using perfect form". If you have this tendency to collapse then lower the weight to where you can use perfect form and work your way back up. When you reach your current PR using this better form you will see improvements in the field as well.

Yes there is. It's usually plyos and longer distance sprints (200-400m).

« on: July 24, 2013, 01:46:04 am »The clean pull on to toes looked like a nightmare. Cant imagine a group of guys doing that one well. Also why do we have to always include an olympic lift variant in any discussion about training an athlete.
I thought that as well to be honest.
