    Andy, I'd like to try box squats for my medium day squats (just for the sake of variety). The only sturdy box I have available results in a depth .5 ~ 1" above parallel. Can I still productively use that box or do I need to buy one that's below the parallel? What is the recommended box squat depth?

    For now it will work, but I'd look to get a box that is right at parallel or maybe an inch below. Will carry over better to a raw squat if it is deeper
