Box squats can be a way to improve your CrossFitting or powerlifting abilities by increasing your posterior chain strength. This powerlifting type of squat enables you to engage the glutes and hamstrings a little more than with a traditional squat because of it’s emphasis on the hip. It can provide a variation for Olympic lifting training if an individual is struggling with overuse of the knee especially when feeling discomfort at the knee catching the bounce out of the hole. This can also be a variation for individuals with limited ankle mobility; although, I would still encourage those with ankle mobility restrictions to work on full depth traditional squatting. Because this method of squatting is eliminating the momentum commonly used out of the hole, it works for developing power at potential sticking points in the squat.
