REGRESSION · HOW TO DO IT

Box-supported Cossack

These steps are written specifically for the Box-supported Cossack. Follow them in order and stop before you lose the position.

  1. 01
    Set up your version

    Set up specifically for the Box-supported Cossack. Use a stable support for balance or assistance, but keep the working muscles responsible for the rep.

  2. 02
    Move the pattern

    Shift toward one side, bend that knee, and sit toward the heel while the other leg stays long.

  3. 03
    Match the demand

    Use the box to define the end of the range; touch it without relaxing or bouncing.

  4. 04
    Finish with control

    Keep the long-leg foot down, then press through the bent leg to return to the middle. Use the widest stance you can control.

Box-supported Cossack

Sets: 3 · Reps: 5–10 per side

Box-supported Cossack is a regression of Cossack Squat. Use the written card above for its exact setup and execution.

Long range: Long range means the target muscle is challenged as it reaches a longer position.

WHY IT EARNS A SPOT

Own the position,
then earn the load.

Shifting laterally lengthens the straight-leg adductors and builds usable frontal-plane range rather than passive flexibility alone.
