How to Box Jump with Proper Form

1. Stand in front of a sturdy box with your feet shoulder-width apart.
2. Slightly bend your knees and lower into a half-squat while swinging your arms back.
3. Explode upward by pushing off the ground with your feet and swinging your arms forward to create momentum.
4. Jump onto the box, landing softly with your knees slightly bent, feet fully on the box, and your torso upright.
5. Stand up fully once you’ve landed on the box.
6. Step, or carefully jump, down and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
