Power Cleans vs. Strongman For Football

If you think that Olympic lifting and power cleans are the only way to get athletes faster and more explosive, then you haven’t looked outside the box.

Consider that a power clean is basically a “loaded jump”, your moving massive amounts of weight with an explosive triple extension.

1. Tire Flips

2. Keg Loading

3. Stone Loading

4. Sandbag Loading

5. Medicine Ball Backwards Toss
