There's a couple of links that show some good kettle bell routines.

There's several other good links in the suggestions bar as well for different plyo-metric routines.

I forgot to mention, the most obvious and effective exercises for developing explosive power and athleticism are the snatch and clean and jerk - the olympic lifts.
Plenty of youtube vids if you search them.

I think, and it's just my opinion, that the most important thing in developing a good strength routine for yourself, is understanding your body type, and the type of exercises from which it will benefit most.

For me, being sort of a wiry frame, I don't really have the strength endurance to do very high reps, so I benefit from very low rep and as high weight as I can take, but mostly dynamic orientated exercises.

There's a guy at my gym though, for example, and he's very stocky, built just like Melvin Manhoef - he can do very heavy weights at perhaps 10-15 reps a set.
I've never seen him do a dynamic exercise.

Again, just my opinion, but depending on your body type, some routines and exercises will be of far greater benefit than others, and it's just a matter of understanding your body and the corresponding routines.


If you want to get more in depth on the subject, there's a very good strength and conditioning forums on

www.mixedmartialarts.com

and

www.sherdog.com

Alot of guys post there that are very well versed in the area and very helpful.
