    70% of the power comes from the legs, especially hips. What are the best exercises to incease hip flexibility, power and speed?

    Squats, deadlifts, power cleans.

    Wall sits will do a little but the above exercises are where its at.

    I'm doing squats 4x6, 5x5 power cleans and 5x5 snatches 2-3x time a week in my gym workout. Just try to do everything with explosive power. Squats can make us stiff, so I usually do some 3x6 squat jumps with little weight after my squat set.

    Plenty of stretching, band work and plenty of fit ball exercises.
