Hex Bar Jumps — Explosive Power — Leg and Back Strength — Doug Larson
Hex Bar Jumps are an amazing exercise to build explosive power.
They’re easier to learn than snatches and cleans and provide similar (tho not the same) benefits.
If you’re technique isn’t very good on snatches and cleans yet or you (or one of your clients) has no desire to take the time to learn them, then hex bar jumps are a great substitution.
