The L-Sit hold is easily one of the most underrated core exercises. Many people refer to it as a “beginner” skill in calisthenics. Perhaps it is technically a beginner-level skill in gymnastics, but it’s still a very humbling exercise that challenges the core more than most exercises, and is by no means “easy” for the average person.
That’s where my tutorial comes in. I’ll teach you how to go from complete beginner to L-Sit expert.
The L-Sit is great for working on your core compression (getting torso closer to thighs) and builds insane strength in your hip flexors and all the muscles used for downward vertical pressing (dips).
And one of my favorite things about L-Sits is their cross-over to other exercises. For example, many variations of pull-ups can be done in an L-Sit position. You can also transition to L-Sit from dips, or transition from L-Sit to handstand.
For prerequisites, I recommend you have enough strength to perform strict dips, can hang from a pull-up bar with scapular activation and have decent hamstring flexibility. All of this is explained in more detail in the video, of course.
Happy training!
