This page tells you what the machine is. Step-by-step instructions, common mistakes and a video of the movement are in the Luio app — the video shows the range of motion that text cannot describe.
Open in the app⚠️ Most common mistake: Plopping down onto the box instead of touching it under control, which kills the leg tension. Squatting straight down instead of sitting the hips back, which loads the knees over the glutes. Letting the knees cave inward as you stand back up, which weakens the lift and stresses the knees. Rounding the lower back at the bottom — turns a teaching tool into a back-strain risk.
💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Glutes.
