Front Lever Workout | Full Tutorial With Progressions

Hi.. I’m 71 yrs old and my goal is to be able to do an IRON CROSS one day.. hopefully by following your exercises, I’ll be able to meet my goal… Thank you for having this Chanel !’

Rir??

Wow- tucked front lever is really hard. I don’t know if it’s just getting the movement position dialled in or if I’m not strong enough. I can do 10 chin ups so thought I’d have the base strength needed. What would be an alternative move that is a bit easier? Hanging leg raises? Or should I just keep trying tucked front lever? What’s also hard is I can’t see myself in the mirror to gauge my position

I was doing a front lever on a similar door pull-up when it suddenly fell off and I did a 3-foot free fall on my butt. I also hit back of my head on the wall. I was surprised since I had been using the door pull-up for 5+ years without any problem. The sudden failure of the top doorway trim jamb was the cause of the fall. When I looked at the broken pieces of the doorway trim jamb, I noticed that it was was just nailed in the drywall. It was basically a decorative trim. Over the last 5+ years, the slight up and down; side to side movement when I used the door pull-up bar was like a pile-driver on the doorway trim jamb until it gave way. I ended up with a very sore low back and a concussion.

Love this! Still chasing the front lever here

nice ευχαριστώ επειδη έβγαλεσ αυτό το βιντεο επειδη θέλω να μάθω και εγω γεια μπρο!!!!!!

Is it safe.... I don't want to destabilize the pullup bar and break my spine...

Also, Sonor drum kits. Nice. I also play drums. Weird, almost every person I meet who does calisthenics, plays drums..

Sick lever on that pull up bar!

Think we'd be great no gym buddies.

🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝

Is it same for ring ~??

I just got the basebar and tried to do this and it was extremely hard, I could barely hold 1 sec.

Any tips or requirements in terms of how many of a specific exercise (eg. Pullups) is needed to event start the tucked front lever?

Got into calishenics when the gym closed. I love the idea of training for skills rather than just building muscle. That makes your training way more rewarding.

Your full front lever needs more training. You explained the whole process very well though and I hope you've achieved to hold it way longer than 2019

Front lever has nothing to do with core strength yes it needs a little but its mainly lats strengh and the reason why u keep mentioning core is because u cant actually hold an actual front lever with straight arm thats why u are not using ur lats... Bye

This is hard

Ice cream makers are not that effective, you aren’t focusing any involved muscle in that move. Also arms shoud be straight in every static exercise for front lever, no matter what

howd you get your teeth so white??

How do I get strong enough to do a tuck front lever? I don't even manage to do the eccentric, my legs just drop..

Jonny sins is that u

An important clarification for everyone asking what to do if they can't hold the tucked front lever:
Move on, you're too weak to try learning this move. Train the basics more. If you jump into learning advanced moves when your body can hardly handle pull ups you are setting yourself up for an injury that could be with your for the rest of your life.

I hope you fixed your fill front lever hold posture, because your ass was a bit too low in the beginning example

i just subbed johnny sins, wow

I realize a lot of the FL is core strength, but I’m trying to get a feel for how much lat strength is needed? Trying to equate this with the straight arm lat pull down, any idea how much % of my body weight needed with this exercise to do the FL? BTW, really enjoy your videos, very helpful to me especially during the lockdown.

In your beginner ring routine you do MWF, so now you talk about push, pull,leg days so 6 days a week training?

What is that bar you're using for the rows and where can I get one?
EDIT: It's a dip station. Where did you get that one?

U must have included straddle version of front lever also before full front lever otherwise it might be direct jump in intensity

Planche tutorial 👍

Felt like shoulder is gonna pop when im doing the tucked front lever

If you need to master front lever you want to have reached

1- /25 diamond push ups in (row)
2-/10 solid pull ups in (row)
3-/20 ice cream makers in (row)
4-/15 elevated pike push ups in (row)

And last front lever

This is the first channel I found where the front lever is demonstrated with a neutral grip. I have been practicing FL like this for many months and was wondering if this could be why I am not progressing. Looks like its OK to continue but with some new progressions.

can you replace elevated straight leg rows with just regualr pull ups? Or is that horizontal position essential for core strength?

Appreciate it. Thanks!

You're very good explaining everything !!

What do you think about doing full front lever with resistance band

That's great man !! And you seem to be quite a big guy wich makes this more difficult. Keep up the great content

Resistance band must for learning the front lever skill?

Your a master in my book!

What if I can’t do the tucked front lever to begin with?

GREAT FRONT LEVER BRO

Hey man. Nice tutorial. How is that parallette type gear you use for the body weight rows called? I can only find equalizers, but I like this design.

Great strength but this is not a good front lever. Keep going!
