Perfect Box Jump Technique

The box jump is a powerful plyometric exercise that develops explosive lower body strength, improves vertical jump ability, and enhances athletic performance. ChAIron's AI coaching ensures every rep builds maximum results with perfect form.

Step-by-Step Form Guide

  1. Setup:Stand arm's length away from box, feet hip-width apart
