I go in waves with things that I want to emphasize and the latest one has been high box jumps. Aside from everything else good about them, I think they look cool. I also like the 1-2 approach because I think it helps us feel a flow - which is related to falling in running.
Pairing them with Overhead squats proved to be a pretty tough couplet especially when going relatively heavy. For the athletes that didnt have the capacity to do heavy OHS, they did AMRAP in 10 minutes of 10 overhead squats and 5 box jumps; keeping the effect of the box but adding reps to compensate for the light OHS. Our 5:30 session had a good mix of high schoolers, college kids, and parents. Here's how it looked.
Not the prettiest form we've seen on this site for sure. Considering what we were looking for, though, I'll take it and make note of what we need to fix in the future.
