Cocoons is a compound strength exercise using body only that trains the abdominals.

Primary muscles: Abdominals
How to do it
- Begin by lying on your back on the ground. Your legs should be straight and your arms extended behind your head. This will be your starting position.
- To perform the movement, tuck the knees toward your chest, rotating your pelvis to lift your glutes from the floor. As you do so, flex the spine, bringing your arms back over your head to perform a simultaneous crunch motion.
- After a brief pause, return to the starting position.
Track it with MyoAmigo
MyoAmigo pre-fills every set of the Cocoons from last time, charts your estimated 1RM trend so you can see strength move without testing a true max, and flags a stall with a concrete fix. It also credits this work toward your weekly Abdominals volume on the MyoMap heatmap. New to the movement? Start with picking a working weight and progressive overload.
