Okay I understand. Thank you for that feedback!Too small, too high, has a back and is not adjustable for height. Also would probably tip over if you sat back on it.
I have normally squated in the past without a box but switched because I heard it’s a good way to fix form issues. So I moved to the box squat hoping to figure out why I was getting pain in knees when doing any type of squat. So is box squatting above parallel what is causing this? I’m still confused on what you are trying to say.
Why is a shoulder press chair a problem? Too high?
What do you mean by raw lifter?
And I do not do leg ext.
Problem with the chair is you can't sit back properly and perform a correct box squat. Also, you don't touch and go with box squats. When performing box squats your shins will be more vertical because you'll be sitting back more. You'll want to widen your stance, turn your toes out, and sit back onto the box when box squatting. Some like box squats, I personally don't, but that's neither here nor there.
Raw = not equipped. I don't believe you're wearing briefs and you're not wearing a suit. Raw would be a belt, sleeves, and even knee wraps. Equipped changes the mechanics of the lift in the sense of how you perform the lift.
The fact that you said you've used both a box and that seat, tells us you haven't used an actual box for box squats.
The depth is better but the knees go to far over the feet which can add pain to the knees that way, need a wider stance to keep the shins more vertical when you go down to prevent knee pain. Just widen your stance a little more and that's a home run.
