I loved box squats in high school..you could load the bar with 2x your normal weight and rep it with ease...i think we called em "sissy squats".

i don't think so joey...the box should be slightly below parellel...no way you should be able to do twice max...most peeps i know box only slightly more than regulard

then the box you used was too high.
no way are box squats "sissy".
use a 12" box next time and go down till you're sitting on it and get back to us about how 'sissy' it is.

I think I need to find out what the hell a box squat is.
I thought the box was the cage. There is a box involved also?

BTW, you're all sissies and should bow down to my feet.

you can use a bench but i have an adjustable "box" so i can change the height to suit whatever im doing..
anyway bsaically you want a box thats at para or below..
set your squat stance sit on and PAUSE (thats the big thing is to make sure to pause) on the box releasing te hip flexors but keep the abs tight then reflex off the box..

the pause is the whole key..it makes a squat harder that is how you get carry over to a free squat..if you just touch the box the only thing you did was mark how low you went
