I would try stand furthur in front of the box and sit back on it, should be able to get more out of your hammys that way.I bet you could handle EVEN more weight on them cos that looked fairly easy for you.
Anyone feel free to tell me I'm talking out my ass but thats how it looked to me. |

I see what you mean. I'll try to do that next time....I don't sit back all that much because:
1.) I don't know how to sit back any more than what I do normally (normally does not mean this video)
2.) I don't know how it benefits a RAW lifter like me. Most westsiders and the powerlifters out there use this "sit back" step because they train themselves to lift in gear. I don't know how to apply that to someone like me who isnt trying for a meet...I'm going to try out box squats again and we'll see from there.
Thanks for dropping by Hopper.....I am going to need to modify my form a little bit.
