How to tell if someone is BOX SQUATTING or SQUATTING TO A BOX. ⁣ If there is a sweat angel butt print left after the squat, the lifter has performed a box squat. If there is no sweat angel butt print left after the squat, you have a lifter who has squatted TO a box. ⁣ ⁣ If you're not sweating profusely like Nate here, you can also try applying a thin layer of chalk to your box and seeing what print is left. ⁣ ⁣ Which are you doing--a box squat, or squatting to a box? Both have their applications. ⁣ ⁣
