In this video I show a front lever workout program that goes through 3 phases of progression. This is what I used to achieve the front lever at home. While my front lever isn't perfect, it's at least good enough that people starting requesting a tutorial after I showed it off in a couple videos, so here's the full tutorial with progressions, as requested :)
While you could use an assistance band to help out with your progress, if you want to, the front lever progression I used didn't use any type of fitness band. I instead used the following variations with other (easier) exercises/progressions performed after them. This was enough for me to develop the strength I needed. All of this plus more is explained in the video:
- Tucked Front Lever
- Advanced Tucked Front Lever
- Single-Leg Front Lever
Those 3 main front lever exercises above are what I used to attain the full front lever, along with different forms of bodyweight rows as well as inverted hangs and ice cream makers.
I did do some tucked front lever pull-ups, but I didn't do them consistently enough to consider them an effective part of my front lever training.
I hope this video helps you guys on your journey to the front lever, and make sure you subscribe if you want to follow my calisthenics journey and learn everything I figure out along the way!

@juhoj 5 жыл бұрын
@@MinusTheGym Front lever is generally considered a fundamental straight-arm exercise and having arms bent even slightly makes it a different and easier exercise. There are dozens of muscles working to keep arms locked straight (outer elbows, lats, traps, ...), and bending arms undermines the full development of these muscles. Tendons are also under heavier load with straight arms, thus getting stronger over time (for this reason one should take front lever progressions slowly to give tendons time to adapt).

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.

I got really comfortable doing toe-to-bar, building up until I could do a set of 8 or 10 before being able to hold the tucked front lever for any amount of time. Toe-to-bar is plenty challenging if you're new to the movement, and could serve to be included in a "phase 0" progression of this workout, were the author to include such a one.

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

First I want to compliment on achieving some progress however, I do agree with some of the comments below, your arms should be straight at all times when front levering unless you're doing front lever pulls. Your lats are the main muscle area engaged in the FL. Off course with calisthenics you'll never isolate a muscle area hence you'd need to engage your glutes and your abs as well but I am aware also watching your video that you did mention is also a work in progress but despite that you felt you were in a position where you could advise some with a tutorial. I have no problem with that at all, on the contrary, I would like to support what you're doing by sharing my tips and advice with you. I feel your scapula should be more retracted and chest lifts or scapula pulls would help you a lot. You're already there with the FL and I hope you'd see I mean no harm or attempting to sabotaging your channel. Best of luck and looking forward to seeing your progress. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kJylq5yZyOCoiYk.html

Hello, I hope all is going well for you. If you don't mind I have a general question. Roughly how long does it take to build the reps of an exercise? Or is their some method that you need to use? Thank you in advance.
@MinusTheGym 5 жыл бұрын
Lane Smith it really varies depending on the exercise, but as a general rule of the thumb, I try to go up by 1 rep (or 1 second, if it's a static hold) each time I work out. Doesn't always happen, but that's what I aim for. What I've noticed is that "less is more" really does apply. What I mean by that is I used to work on a skill/exercise upwards of 4 or 5 times per week and my progress was often stagnant. Once I cut down on it and would only work on an exercise twice per week (3 times at most) then my progress picked back up again. So the body needs time to rest and recover, for sure. If you're not going up by 1 rep/second per workout, check your rest and nutrition. It may need adjustment.

Imaginary Vayne yeah, if your back isn't too exhausted from the full body workouts, working on this skill on the rest days could work. Another way to do it would be to incorporate the current progression you're working on in your full body routine as the pulling movement, then hit the easier progressions/auxiliary exercises at the end of the workout or on rest days. I've only used split training when pursuing the FL, though.

@@MinusTheGym Thank you for the quick answer! I recently started doing weighted calisthenics so my back isn't feeling as good on rest days but I could try a few progressions and see how it goes.

Imaginary Vayne Yeah, weighted calisthenics will definitely take it out of you, but it's great for building strength :) And you could try that method at the end of your routine for a couple weeks and see how it goes. If I was going to try that method, I'd leave pull movements out of the full body routine to preserve my pulling strength, then do all the FL progression work at the end. The full body routine (without the pulling) will get you nice and warmed up but not exhaust your pulling muscles.

Great channel you have here! I'd like to ask for some advice. I see that you use those dip bars a lot. Do you think some high paralletes serve the same exact purpose? What about rings, do you think I need dip bars when I already have rings? Thanks.
@MinusTheGym 5 жыл бұрын
Rui Meireles yeah, some high parallettes will serve the same purpose as the dip station, or even be *better* because you can use a single side of the parallettes to do straight bar dips. So if you're looking at something like the Lebert Equalizer Bars, I say go for it. Great investment. And that's fantastic that you already have rings. Those are much more challenging than dip bars because of the instability. So it's up to you, really. If you're happy with the progress you're making on the rings and are enjoying the challenge, keep at it with the rings and skip the dip bars. But if you want variety and a more beginner-level piece of equipment for skills, the stability of parallel bars will provide an easier version of all the skills you'd learn on rings. Dips, L-Sit, etc. are all easier on bars.

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
