I’ve only done box squats a handful of times. Using just RPE without a percentage was a little difficult.

RPE looks good. These are a little loose though. In a box squat you should fight to keep all your hip/back/ab tension on the box. Do not just sit onto it.
For box logistics, rotate it 45 degrees so you are sitting on a corner not a side. This will give your legs a little more room to sit back on the box and might me a little more comfortable given your rack set up.

Thanks. I’ve only done them a few times. I’ll make sure I stay tight next time
