    Box jumps still mentally trip me up, for that very reason.

    My trainer videotaped herself jumping onto the 36 and then she has a fall. It's down near the bottom of her Facebook page. I'd like to be able to do the 30 inch one. I don't think 36 is in my future.

    I was happy that I didn't go back to multiple arm swings after I fell.

    I've a problem jumping up on the larger boxes - pretty sure it is a head thing...if the box is higher than my knees then I've a problem persuading my feet to leave the ground. I need to get over that Congrats on the power Veronica, that is pretty cool!

    You definitely have to commit. Sometimes before I start jumping I step up on to the box, just to get a feel for the height.

    I know I was jumping a bit high on my last 4. It hurts when you miss!

    I'd like to get so I can do the whole set at 22 mph. It doesn't help that it's the last set on the video.
