TIPS FOR USE & SAFETY

Assembly

• Lay out all parts: bottom plate, top plate, 2× side panels, front & back panels, inner struts, screws.
• Tools: Phillips screwdriver or cordless drill with suitable bit; assemble on a clean, flat surface.
• Build the inner struts first; align carefully and avoid overtightening.
• Attach bottom plate to side panels, then mount front & back panels to form the frame.
• Insert inner struts, place the top plate, check all edges are flush, then screw down firmly.
• Finish with a safety check: place on a solid, non-slip surface and test with light step-ups.
• For a detailed step-by-step guide, see our assembly blog article.

Safety

• Use only on flat, non-slip, load-bearing surfaces; clear the area around the box.
• Maximum load: up to 150 kg when assembled correctly.
• Land softly with both feet; avoid excessive bouncing or uncontrolled jumps.
• Check and retighten screws regularly; do not use if parts are loose or damaged.
• Wear supportive, non-slip shoes; keep children and pets away during training.

Maintenance

• Clean with a lightly damp cloth; avoid harsh cleaners to protect the wood.
• Dry thoroughly after use or moisture exposure; store in a dry place.

Training Ideas

• 3-in-1 jump heights: Rotate the box for 40 cm, 50 cm, or 60 cm to match your level.
• Plyometrics: Box jumps, rebound-controlled jumps, depth step-downs.
• Strength: Step-ups, Bulgarian split squats, elevated push-ups, bench dips.
• Core & stability: Planks, toe taps, mountain climbers, slow eccentric step-downs.

Combinability with a Weight Vest

For progressive overload with natural movement, pair your Wooden Plyo Box with the GORNATION Weight Vests. Choose between 10 kg and 20 kg versions — both adjustable in precise 1 kg steps — so you can scale workouts without changing your technique.

Choose Your Weight Vest

• 10 kg Vest: Adjustable 1–10 kg, compact design, full range of motion, customizable with Velcro patch areas.
• 20 kg Vest: Adjustable 1–20 kg in 1 kg steps for advanced strength and conditioning blocks.
• Fit & build (both): Body-hugging, no wobbling weights, size adjusts in seconds. Vest material: 70% oxford fabric / 30% TPE; weight blocks: 100% iron.

Benefits of the Weight Vest

• Progressive overload: Add weight in 1 kg increments for steady, measurable gains.
• Natural movement: Hands free and form unchanged—ideal for step-ups, squats, and tempo work.
• Compact & stable: Low profile fit minimizes bounce for smooth, controlled reps.
• Versatile: Perfect for strength sets, circuits, and low-height plyometrics.
• Fast setup: Quick on/off between sets keeps session flow high.

How to Use with the Plyo Box

• Adjust straps for a snug, comfortable fit; the vest should not shift while moving.
• Start light (e.g., 2–5 kg) and add weight gradually as landing and posture stay solid.
• Select the right box height (40/50/60 cm); increase height only when technique is consistent.
• Brace your core, keep knees tracking over toes, and aim for soft, quiet landings.
• Use timed rests to maintain quality during strength or conditioning circuits.

Training Ideas

• Weighted step-ups: 8–12 reps/leg × 3–4 sets; drive through the whole foot.
• Box squats to target depth: 6–10 reps × 3–4 sets; brief pause, then stand up under control.
• Bulgarian split squats: Rear foot on the box; 6–10 reps/leg × 3–4 sets.
• Lateral step-overs: Smooth tempo for coordination and hip stability.
• Low-height plyometrics: Sub-max box jumps or step-off depth drops; low volume, perfect landings.
• Conditioning circuit: Step-ups → elevated push-ups (hands on box) → mountain climbers (on box), 3–5 rounds.

Safety Tips

• Use the Plyo Box only on flat, non-slip, load-bearing surfaces; keep the area clear.
• Respect capacity: combined body weight + vest + any load should not exceed 150 kg (when the box is assembled correctly).
• Avoid maximal jumps with heavy loads; prioritize technique and soft landings.
• Check and retighten box screws periodically; do not use if any part is loose or damaged.
• Stop immediately if you feel pain or dizziness; reduce weight or height as needed.

Care Instructions (Weight Vests)

• Machine wash at 30 °C without fabric softener.
• Remove the straps before washing and keep Velcro fasteners closed.
• Air dry only; do not tumble dry and do not use fabric softener.
