When I signed up for a competition with a sandbag toss, I was a little excited to bring some Oly work back into my training. I started the program with a more conventional power clean, but in the last few weeks before the competition I've been performing the power clean off of blocks.

I think that the elevated start height is going to add a little bit of specificity, and it's really forcing me to get into the power position and fire quickly. Just like a sandbag.

A lot of guys will train the bag with other protocols and exercises that result in a poor trajectory on the throw. Getting the bag to go up instead of back is everything when the bags get heavy, and I'm hoping it'll help me perform well here in a couple of weeks.

Good subs for this exercise would be exercises like high pulls with bars or KB's. Just looking for things that get you moving things vertically, parallel to the ground.
