I'm all for variety. Your "bear" sounds like a killer whole-body exercise. Besides, it incorporates an overhead squat, and those are *Hard*. As for me, I know I need more speed work. Bunny hopping bleacher steps at Menlo Atherton high school last weekend was a real slap in the face in that regard.
Not a lot of time involved in this, Alan. I spend about an hour each time. You always want to throw more than you lift.

Are you gonna be a lifter who throws or a thrower who lifts?

BTW, I don't overhead squat any more. Just lower the barbell to my shoulders and do a normal back squat.
