L-sit to V-sit progression

2m 16s
THE WHAT & HOW:
'THE L-SIT' represents another fundamental bodyweight-strength (BWS) form whereby the load of the body in its entirety is held off of the floor. That it begins in a seated position and utilises a scapular pushing mechanic with much greater "real-world" application than other BWS forms such as 'tuck planche' or a handstand (the L-sit's scapular DEPRESSION, in combination with PROTRACTION is also how one would support the body in passing through a gap between two obstacles), makes it perhaps one of the most 'fundamental' isometric forms for BWS practice.

High straddle-hold
THE WHAT:
An integrated straddle-compression (i.e. active lifting of the extended legs) and straight-arm scapular-strength (SASS) drill in the context of vertical pushing. Ultimately, these two aspects integrate into a fundamental isometric form which both serves for strength-conditioning and 'ac... -
Travelling Straddle (forward & back)
THE WHAT & HOW:
A quadrupedal locomotion pattern progressing from the 'Travelling Squat', toward functioning as both a straddle-conditioning (dynamic compression) and straight-arm scapular-strength/SASS (sustaining the weight of the body in the arms) development tool.LEARN MORE (subscriber-only...

Compression routine 1.0
THE WHAT:
"Compression" is ultimately the ACTIVE pulling together of your top & bottom-halves into a front-folded position. The two main front-folded positions are 'pike' (legs together) and 'straddle' (legs apart), and so we are essentially working to pull the LEGS toward the body whilst simulta...
