In sports the explosive movement that forms the basis for so many sports is extension of the ankle knee and hip joint and is known as triple extension. It can be effectively trained in the gym in many ways one of the most popular being Olympic lifts. I always begin any clients Olympic lifting with the high pull. Often I find it is enough giving the benefits of explosive triple extension without the technical difficulty of the clean or the snatch and can be done by a wider range of clients. People with poor upper body mobility struggle with snatch and clean and due to the more technical nature the lifts often need a lot of training with a light weight offering little adaptation. In the early phase. My client Simon Maggs first ever session on this type of training.
