Hey alex, if I the only thing I have for box squats is a bench, and the bench has be about 1-2 inched above parallel, should I still do this or should I just do regular squats? How important is hitting depth?
Hello Cory,
If the bench is above parallel, I would do the standard free squat. You will likely experience better gains this way.
