Hess: This is an incredibly creative exercise that forces you not only to use your physical strength but mental strength, too. If you are not focused, you run the risk of missing the bar. It is very effective in improving explosive power. Although the Pull-Up portion is not incredibly sport-specific, you are teaching your body to work out of normal parameters. Brilliant thought process! Way to go STACK!
