Master Your Squat Box

1) Cable Machine — Low Pulley

Most common gym setup. Connect the Squat Box to a low pulley using the included carabiner and belt. Ideal for belt squats, deadlifts, rows, marches, and more.

1. Position platform centered and stable; check rubber feet contact.
2. Clip to low pulley. Move the Squat Box back slightly to create light tension in the pulleys.
3. Stand on platform, squat to the lowest position, then attach the carabiner from the Squat Box pulley to the belt's ring; remove slack by ratcheting the belt down.
4. Start light; keep torso tall and drive through mid-foot.
5. Check that the cable path is clear and aligned with the platform center.
6. Pin light weight to test range of motion; increase as needed.

2) Selectorized Stack Connection

When your station uses a selectorized weight stack, clip into the stack's low cable attachment point. Start with a lower pin to keep resistance smooth through the range.

• Use single cable, not dual independent cables, when possible.
• Check that the cable path is clear and aligned with the platform center.
• Pin light weight to test range of motion; increase as needed.

3) Band-Only — Door Anchor (Home)

Perfect for home or travel. Connect resistance bands through the loop on a door anchor inserted into the hinge side of the door, then clip to the low pulley system under the Squat Box. Works indoors or outdoors (use a secure anchor).

• Place anchor below knee level.
• Close the door fully with the anchor inserted through the hinge side.
• Stand on platform, squat to the lowest position, connect the squat belt to the carabiner, and remove slack.

We don't list specific band tensions in writing—choose the lightest band that allows perfect form and tempo.

4) Band Anchor — Rack, Fence, Post, or Tree

For gyms and outdoor training. Use a post/rack anchor at below knee height. Keep the band path straight to the built-in pulley system on the Squat Box.

• Make sure bands are not rubbing on any rough surfaces.
• You can use multiple bands connected to the anchor and the built-in pulley system.
