L-sit to V-sit progression
SASS push (vertical & horizontal)
•
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.

Parallettes 'Planche' & 'L-/V-sit'
THE WHAT:
Developing these two fundamental SAS/S forms on the low-parallettes (or optionally high 'Parallel-bars') is essentially just a shift of modality from floor, to bar-support.Despite this apparently small difference, it can affect execution quite significantly depending on the individual...

Fundamental 'Ring-support' variations
THE WHAT:
Fundamental 'Ring-support' variations & progressions for developing stability & straight-arm strength in a vertical push context on the gymnastics rings.As well as developing structural awareness (namely of the slightly PROTRACTED and HOLLOWED local & global form) and accustoming to t...

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...
