Everything is plyometric in sports... you never stop, take a 5 second pause, and then "explode". You don't do that on a rebound, you don't do that on a block, you don't do that on anything.

Even in something like skanderberg you must be isometrically contracted and ready for the start, so it's not complete relaxation into complete tension.

I wonder what his halfsquat is, if he has a 3x squat.

50x3 in the powersnatch is better than me... although I do have to worry about missing the lift so... that's a big limiting factor.

If you do paused squats you do them to save your joints, if anything, not because they are specific in any shape or form to jumping.

That's actually pretty cool... makes me remember a chezkenny video where he had a machine that was a leg extension to leg curl machine that teached agonist to antagonist tension-relaxation... and it looked kinda gimmicky but he swore it helped him, especially with his one-leg jumps.
