I have noticed, in alot of hitters, but alot in Albert Pujols, how his back leg/knee drops so low down when he swings. Take a look at these pictures:

What I would like to know, is how does he accomplish that? That must give him so much power because he really gets his back leg into it. How do you do this? Do you actually just try to force it down like that? Or does it happen from the reaction of another part in your swing? How do you get that?
