I like the smith machine when doing plyo bench presses, loading up the bar with 25% of my max and literally throwing the bar into the air, catching it on the way back down. Works on explosiveness, and is impossible to use with free weights.
I don’t think it’s impossible to get that with free weights. You could always do power cleans, no?0 -

Not impossible, just not advisable. Better catch it!
