How to do it
- Set up a row of cones or other small barriers, placing them a few feet apart.
- Stand in front of the first cone with your feet shoulder width apart. This will be your starting position.
- Begin by jumping with both feet over the first cone, swinging both arms as you jump.
- Absorb the impact of landing by bending the knees, rebounding out of the first leap by jumping over the next cone.
- Continue until you have jumped over all of the cones.
Track it with MyoAmigo
MyoAmigo pre-fills every set of the Front Cone Hops (or hurdle hops) 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 Quadriceps volume on the MyoMap heatmap. New to the movement? Start with picking a working weight and progressive overload.
