#tbt In April I attempted a box jump and it didn’t go well.. I was out for 3 months almost ending my weightlifting career. Keep in mind I’m 400+ lbs. #bigboyhops #gym #boxjumps #benchpress #almostdied # #merica #fail #powerlifting | Irregular Strength | Facebook

☠️ DANGER: Box Jumps ⚠️ I saw more box jump accidents during my years of CrossFit than I can count. But what I learned is that most of these injuries and mishaps came from jumping off the box. Why? Jumping down causes major impact to your joints. As your body fatigues, you’re more and more likely to mis-step or brace incorrectly. Do yourself a favor and stay in control and STEP off the box, especially as you begin to fatigue. 🤕 #functionalbodybuilding #boxjumps #boxjumpinjury #crossfitinjury #d
