Wow! You ladies are all getting some serious height on those box jumps! Congrats.
The box jump is one of those skills that is funny - (funny peculiar, not funny ha-ha). I've watched people attack each box jump at varying heights with great success. And then I've also watched (and experienced myself) folks standing there ready to jump but finding themselves (myself) in paralysis.
As a flux coach, I encourage people not to think about it too much - to really commit to the jump and just do it!
As a flux CrossFit athlete, I have to tell myself (out loud and there is no shame in that) the exact same thing - especially when it comes to the taller boxes. Commit and jump.
These ladies (from top to bottom - Cathy, Brittany, Kennedy) look like they've got it down. And a huge bravo to Theresa who made her first (of many consecutive) 2-feet box jumps last week. I'm super proud of you Theresa!
