"Studies have also observed moderate-to-strong relationships between jump squat height and performance in an Olympic lift (Häkkinen et al. 1986), as well as between jump squat power output and performance in a weightlifting derivative (Baker & Nance, 1999)."
That's why in sports conditioning is better to use WEIGHTED JUMP SQUATS compared to the much more difficult and dangerous olympic lifts. Also the jump squat is more similar to any sport's squat compared to olympic weightlifting derivatives.
