Plyo Box Single Leg Squats

To start the elevated single leg box squat, stand upright on a box or bench that is high enough that you do not touch your toes to the ground when you squat down.  While balanced on a single leg, extend the arms out in front and squat down by flexing the knee. Keep the heel on the bench. Minimize the movement at the ankle.

Squat down until the thigh is parallel to the floor. Pause and extend the leg back to the upright standing position using only the leg you are balancing on.  Continue to complete 8 reps on one leg before switching and repeating the exercise on the opposite leg.
