Learn the most efficient way to do a BJO with a step-down...

(1) Jump at an Angle: To land with your one foot on the far side of the box, you need to land sideways. Being slightly turned prior to jumping prevents you from having to do a full 90 degree turn, which would be the case if you started facing the box.

(2) Land with a Hovering Forefoot: It is really easy to get your outside foot caught on the box and waste precious time and energy as a result. The easiest way to prevent this from happening is landing on the box with the toe of your outside foot off the edge of the box, allowing you to shift your way to the forefoot and slide off with ease.

(3) Touch …and Go: As soon as your inside foot comes off the box and impacts the floor it should be the start of your next jump. The impact of that foot to the floor create a stretch shortening cycle (SSC), and takes advantage of some of the positive aspects of a rebounding box jump.
