How ironic that they would make poor Julie show off box jumps when this movement ended her competitive career. Classy.

If you want more of a challenge do a push-up into a box jump. Kind of like a burpee but jumping onto a box instead.

Still waiting on the Road to the Games with Bridges...

I'm sure she wouldn't recommend one doing it She herself is a testimonial for others.

For the love of Achilles tendons everywhere. Step down, don't jump. Work on height of jump, not how many you can do in a minute. Speed won't make you any stronger, but it'll get you hurt

[HardcoreDancr]

She ain't doing box jumps no more.

Thought she was the wake up call that got this one removed from competition? I like it for hips when done without the bounce back to the top, but some things aren't best done fast as possible.
