nah 
this exercise involves alot of eccentric stress, reaction time and possibly risky. It should help anyone's Olympic lifts, vertical jumping - sprinting and deadlifting in a big way IMHO
It may require a break in period with really lights weights to learn form and technique as well as to condition the reflexes and tendons. Its like combining an Olympic lift hybrid, plyometric exercise and a power type move in one. It's designed to turn on muscle fibres that you can't voluntarily recruit. Ie ones you use when your life is in danger
I have already thought up a few variations - I'll test each one in time.
more info in a couple weeks time

Sounds like something that you have to practice without weights first to avoid likely injury.

Ouchie DOMS in my upper hamstring glute tie in
I want to experiment with it first before I let it out - in time I will reveal all. I wanna make sure it will work first
I used 65 lbs with it yesterday, but I have good grounding in olympic lifts and ballistic exercises so its not that hard for me.
Yes its not for the faint hearted, this is an advanced exercise. Its somewhat related to depth jumping and Russian shock training methods, and requires fast reflexes. One reason why it will sharpen up your CNS and ability to fire all your muscles groups instantly. It also has a plyometric effect, and with a form variation sorta olympic lift like. If you don't have a good foundation of squatting and deadlifting then forget even trying to do it, you will just injure yourself.

It takes years - but this will give you an idea of where I'm coming from
If you know anything about Jay Schroeder's training of Adam Archuleta - then this exercise is based on his training style.
The numbers..
When Archuleta began under Schroeder, he benched 265 pounds in 2.76 seconds in the concentric phase of the lift. He squatted 273 in 3.47 seconds, ran the 40 in 4.79-4.81 and had a 26-inch vertical jump. Today, his personal best in the bench press is 530 pounds in 1.09 seconds and in the squat, 663 pounds in 1.24 seconds. He can run the 40-yard dash in 4.37 seconds and jumped 39 inches vertically.
At 6 feet 211lbs the numbers speak for themselves, and he has average genetics....strength with speed.
The ability to fire all fibres at will, strong eccentric strength and effecient stretch reflex.
