Box squats aren’t just a squat variation — they’re a power-building tool for athletes.
Watch Kyndall Banks dial in strength, speed, and explosiveness while training smart and fueling right 💪⚡️
225 LBS for 8 Reps!!
Why Box Squats WORK for Athletes:
🔹 Posterior Chain Dominance
Forces athletes to sit back, firing up the glutes & hamstrings — key for
• Sprint acceleration
• Vertical jump
• Lateral power
• Hip-dominant sports (football, baseball, track)
🔹 Explosive Concentric Strength
Pausing on the box removes momentum, so power is produced from a dead stop — improving
• First-step quickness
• Start speed
• Change-of-direction power
🔹 Reduced Knee Stress
More vertical shins = less strain on the knees while still loading heavy.
🔹 Depth Consistency & Control
Every rep hits the same depth — perfect for
• Learning proper mechanics
• Post-injury rebuilds
• Eliminating “ego squat” shortcuts
🔹 Safe Overload
Heavier loads with less joint stress = ideal for in-season or high-volume training phases.
Upon rising from the box, she applies an aggressive, rapid foot strike into the floor to increase ground reaction force and neuromuscular recruitment. This strategy improves rate of force development and reinforces a powerful concentric drive through the hips and lower extremities.
