Plyo Box Glutes

Description

A classic lower-body strength and conditioning move using a plyo box. You step onto the box with control, drive through the lead leg to stand tall, then step back down to repeat.

How to perform

  1. Step 1

    Step 1

    Stand tall a comfortable step in front of the plyo box with your feet about shoulder-width apart. Keep your ribs down and core lightly braced. Let your arms hang naturally and look straight ahead.

  2. Step 2

    Step 2

    Place one full foot on top of the box so your whole sole is supported. Lean your torso forward just slightly while keeping your back straight and your hips square. Use your arms for balance as you shift your weight onto the lead leg.

  3. Step 3

    Step 3

    Drive through the heel and midfoot of the lead leg and stand all the way up on the box. Bring the trailing foot up so you’re balanced with both feet flat on top. Stand tall without over-arching your lower back.
