O'kay cone hopping is not only side to side but front to back as well so we started off with just a single and we will go ahead and have him hop over and like I said this is something that children can do as well but you really want to make sure that you are warmed up. Go ahead and slow down and we have got a few more so you can test yourself every time you come to do this work out by advancing the height on what you are doing and this one is a little bit more difficult than side to side because jumping forward and backwards your feet are still kind of under you so we will go ahead and back up and Steve is a capable guy so we will go ahead and do the high cone and he has got this down pretty well. What you want to make sure that you are doing is that you are actually clearing over the cone rather than spreading your feet and he looked like he was clearing it pretty well so he has got a pretty good vertical leap and if we can advance on this every time this is not exactly as stable but it raises it up just a little bit more and what he is doing is he is testing his vertical every time and the higher he gets the higher he is going to be jumping in competition.
