Side to Side Box Shuffle

What it is

This dynamic, plyometric movement builds lower body endurance and agility. You'll rapidly shuffle back and forth over a low box or step, emphasizing quick transitions. It primarily targets your quadriceps, with secondary engagement of your abductors, adductors, calves, and hamstrings.

Technique tips

• Land softly on the balls of your feet to protect your joints.
• Keep your movements quick and controlled, not frantic.
• Engage your core for stability as you shuffle side to side.
• Use your arms for momentum and balance with each jump.
• Maintain a consistent rhythm throughout your set.

How to track your progress

Log the weight and reps of each set. Straddly turns every set into an estimated one-rep max, so a heavier single and a strong set of eight both count as progress, and it flags a personal record the moment you beat your best.
