We’re thrilled to announce the latest addition to our fitness arsenal at the fitness centre—brand new Plyo Boxes! These versatile tools go beyond just jumping high; they enhance overall fitness through dynamic and powerful movements.
What are Plyo Boxes?
Plyo Boxes are sturdy platforms of various heights designed for plyometric exercises, also known as jump training. These exercises involve explosive movements that increase power, strength, and speed. Our new Plyo Boxes come in different sizes to accommodate all fitness levels and support a range of exercises.
Why Use Plyo Boxes?
Incorporating Plyo Boxes into your workouts can significantly improve your muscular power and reaction times, making you faster and more efficient in sports and daily activities. Whether you’re aiming to boost your athletic performance or simply add some variety to your workout routine, Plyo Boxes offer benefits for everyone.
Exercises You Can Do with Plyo Boxes
Plyo Box Jump: This fundamental plyometric exercise involves jumping onto and off a plyo box, using the body’s stretch reflex to jump higher and increase power, speed, and explosiveness.
Bulgarian Split Squat Jump: This exercise is an advanced variation of the traditional Bulgarian split squat and adds a plyometric component. It strengthens the lower body, enhances explosiveness, and improves balance—ideal for athletes or anyone looking to boost their power and speed.
Safety Note
For safety, always ensure that the plyo boxes are secured against a solid surface like a wall or bench. This precaution prevents the boxes from sliding or slipping, which could lead to falls and injuries. If you’re unsure how to use the new equipment safely, please ask a Pinnacle Instructor for assistance.
