Box squats go easy on the knees?

[SergioVicini]

Hey guys, so far, my knees are getting better, I gave them some rest days and started taking some anti-inflammatory, they dont hurt anymore when walking or extending them, anyways, I squatted on monday and I didnt feel any pain on my knees, well, I did less weight, and used a wider stance. The question is: If I still want to lift heavy for strength (BLSS routine) should I do box squats?, do they go easy on the knees?. If I what I'm planning to do is plain stupid just tell me please.

Thanks.

Box squats just help you have proper form and hit the proper depth.

So knee wise is the same as doing squats?

If your squats have proper form, yes.

Thanks, then I'll stick with the box for a while just to make sure I won't damage my knee.
