We will be doing box squats for the next 8 weeks so remember what you’re setup is. In addition don’t be afraid to play around with your stance, standing a little wider is a good fit for Box Squatting and will help you get some more Hamstring Engagement. Remember the goal is to reach back for the box, get those hamstrings involved, not just sit straight down and make it all quads. Reference last week for loading. 2) Dumbbell Farmers Position Box Step-ups: 8/side Every 2:30 x 4 sets Use the same box height you used to Box Squat….
