I've even seen a university study cited once
that found squat jumps to elicit the greatest testosterone response of all exercises studied.

A recent study by Bloomquist et al.
found that deep
squats produced much greater leg hypertrophy compared to shallow
squats and led to higher vertical
jumps in the subject that performed them regularly.
Interestingly, these results support the claims of one 2012 study from Hartmann et al. that examined the transfer of deep
squats and partial
squats on vertical
jump performance and
found that deep
squats transferred very favorably to vertical
jumping, whereas partial
squats did not.
These are normally triple extension or multi-joint upper body exercises that are
found on the strength - speed, power, and speed - strength portion of the force velocity curve: Olympic lifting variations,
jump squats, bench press throws, trap bar
jumps, kettle bell swings and snatches.
If you
find the
jump from the rear flat foot
squat to hover lunges too drastic, you can work with negatives (only lowering down to the ground with one leg, then using the rear foot to help come up again).
Squat jumps — This is the number one exercise for building explosive power and you will
find that it is possible to double your
jumping power within a very short time.
They
found that push press and
jump squat peak power and impulse were similar but push press mean power was greater than
jump squat mean power.
I
found the

jumps - to - lunges sequence to be the toughest part.
Scientists
found that compound weighted exercises such as
squats and lunges improved bone health in young active men, as did high - impact

This profile can be
found by measuring mean force exerted into the ground and the mean velocity of the center of mass in
jump squats with a range of loads.
Test of transfer (long - term): Loturco et al. (2015) compared the effects of high - velocity and a low - velocity
jump squat training programs on the same zig - zag COD test as described above, and
found that the high - velocity group tended to improve COD ability by more than the low - velocity group.
The FV profile can be
found by measuring the mean force exerted into the ground, and the mean velocity of the center of mass, during both unweighted
squat jumps and
jump squats with a range of loads.
