These started out as Squats, but then I end up changing my technique to work my glutes and hamstring more in order to help my deadlift. The combination of the weight suspended by the chains and the bands from the bottom make it incredibly difficult to get moving out of the hole. The lifter must learn to be explosive from the start in order to successfully complete a repetition. A lift like this really improves starting strength for the deadlift and power out of the hole for squats due to the nature of the movement. Any time a movement is suspended by chains or pins the exercises really teaches the lifter to strain and learn to grind through sticking points for a heavy load.
