Compound · Weight × reps

Dip through your hips and knees, use your arms, and jump laterally onto the box. Unless a single-leg version is specifically intended, take off and land on both feet. Land softly with the whole feet supported and knees tracking with the toes, then stabilize and stand before stepping down. Progress height or speed only after you can avoid clipping the edge, twisting on landing, or drifting off the far side.

HOW TO DO LATERAL BOX JUMP

Stand beside a stable box with your near side facing it and enough room for an unobstructed takeoff.
Start with a low box because lateral clearance is less familiar than a forward jump.
