How do you do box squats without the box?[/quote]
It’s just a parallel squat. The idea is if you have enough discipline to do it correctly, you don’t need a box. But realistically it might be better to use a box because you could cheat to disadvantage, by going more down and sitting back less. On the other hand it could be to advantage if you go down more and sit back more than your expectation.
You know you’re doing it correctly because sitting back or sitting out enough will eliminate virtually all pressure on the knees. If you don’t, the pressure on your knees or knee areas can be huge.
