Hey guys, I just started theWestside program. So far it's going well, but I have one shortcomming. My gym doesn't have a box for the squat, so on ME day, I've been doing regular squats. Is this bad? or what can I do to sub for the box squats? will a flat bench work?
 
get some wood and make one.the problem with the bench is it won't be as good unless it happens to be low enough to get you below parallel.
 
X is whatever suits your purposes, usually 1 inch below whatever height is parallel for you.

Although you may get a bigger or smaller box to try and hit several weak points...

hey man i have the same problem

heres the anwser

take a little ride on down to your friendly neighborhood supermarket.......... aske them if you can have a milk crate

yeah i look funny carrying it in........... but i dont look funny being the biggest squatter with the biggest legs in the gym either\

just stack plates on/or under it to get to the desired height.

works great.........

hope i helped
