Box Squat

How to do it

Box or bench at the height you want to work. Sit back until you **touch the box without dropping onto it**, pause a beat and stand. It teaches sitting back, controls depth, and is useful coming back from a niggle. You feel glutes and hamstrings more than in a free squat. The classic mistake is bouncing off the box.
