I’ve really wanted a plyometric jump box for a while, but they are pretty expensive.  So I decided to build my own!

£50 worth of 3/4″ plywood, a big box of screws, some wood glue and a blister on one finger later and its built :)

I built it with 3 different sized sides to give a little more flexibility (from 20″ to 30″).  To build the same one you will need:

2 x 30″ x 22.5″
2 x 30″ x 20″
2 x 18.5″ x 22.5″

All the bits were cut for me at the timber yard and its pretty accurately done (not quite spot on – but good enough).  I had used 200 screws  when it was finished using one every inch as I a firm believer in better to be safe than sorry.

Hope you find the video easy to understand, listening back to some of the clips I say “so” far too many times – next time I might write a script.  It’s also clear that I cannot think and talk at the same time (downfall of being a guy I guess).

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to leave them below :)
