G.O.A.T.
I'm confused. I thought box jumps were a plyo exercise where you jump down from the box and "bounce" up as quickly as possible and as high as possible off the ground.I do box jumps for time often. I just step down instead of jumping down. Jumping down is what kills your achilles. I am not going for warp speed here, just a solid, steady pace to keep my heart rate up.
Agree that jumping down is a bad idea.
For you version of box jumps, do you mean jumping onto the box and then stepping down? It seems like this can be more of an exercise to bring your knees/legs up than jumping.
