'Passive' & 'Active' hanging 'L-sit'
Spinal-stability & auxiliary "core" conditioning
•
1m 12s
THE WHAT:
Fundamental "core" and straight-arm scapular-strength (SASS) development contexts affected by lifting & extending of the legs toward a full 'L-sit' form, and holding isometrically. At the same time, it also teaches basic manipulation of 'mechanical advantage' with the legs; essentially we are creating a lever in which the legs function as the 'load-arm', and lifting/extending them further forward increases the resistance.
They are valuable to practice as foundational steps toward straight-arm strength (SAS) pulling, such as 'Front-lever' progressions or, even more simply, capacity to pull STRAIGHT-arm into an 'Inverted' or 'German-hang'.

L-sit to V-sit progression
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 f... -
'Bottom-up' & 'Dynamic' FL-pulls
THE WHAT:
As a straight-arm strength (SAS) form, the 'Front-lever' (FL) develops the capacity to withstand isometrically & "pull" one’s bodyweight in & out of a position of hanging shoulder-flexion, i.e. with the straight-arms in FRONT of the medial-line of the body.Whilst this has application ...

'Windshield-wipers' (WW) & 'Meathook'...
THE WHAT:
Both contexts exploring hanging transverse-rotation in a "piked" front-lever form, the 'Windshield wipers' (WW) are a patterning & conditioning context, whilst the 'Meathook' (MH) is an isometric-form which might well be classed as a skill.For this reason they cannot really be seen as...
