**general rules on front rack step ups
1. Box height should be slightly above your knee
2. Maintain a 'slower down faster up' tempo
3. All reps should be totally under control
4. Your non-working leg shouldn't step on the box until you completely stand up with the working leg.
5. Step off the box completely between reps; however, if you have a hard time getting your foot back on top of the box it's okay to leave it on the box for all reps.
** if the front rack position is the limiting factor you can switch to a back rack**
