Notice also how when she has sat on the box, Monique actually relaxes her body, lifts her feet off the ground and "jumps" with the weight. This is important because it keeps her form correct (ie shins perpendicular to the ground and knee not going over the toe) and ensures she uses the correct muscles to squat.

5lb pr for her....

hell yah! she is a monster!
