What I like about your channel is that it’s good watching someone that’s more or less the same level as you and not some dude who can boast 10 full planche push ups as his warm up set haha. Makes it much more relatable 😊
Tucked front lever raises are king, i love them. I don't do any skill training but tucked front lever raises are in my pull routine to get me stronger in the future for front lever.
Also love how much they bulk up the lats too! - Personally, my pull up game has drastically improved since integrating tuck front levers. Hope your Front Lever keeps going strong, mate!!
@@CaliToTheCrowd Yeah, i'm using them for improving my pull up game aswell. using them after pullups/chinups to fatigue the lats even more. But i'm kind not doing any training focused on skills, i am building my body up in a bulk then cut and start some skill training (maybe) or i just bulk again depending on where i am at strength wise. I rather build and learn skills on a good foundation, after all i'm soon 36 and i have only been active the last two years. taking it slow since i'm old, better be safe then getting an injury cause i start training something hard i'm not ready for yet. But i still try skills to see where i am at.
Lets go sir!💪 I highly recommend weighted pullups for you, in addition to the technique work. Also doing bands on the feet static holds (not bands on the hip, that way your hip will become a weakpoint, just do bands on the feet) will have a much better strength and skill carryover to the full front lever, aim for 8-10sec holds.The problem with the tuck and one leg variation is that the angle between your arms and your body, and the hip position-engagement is different from a full front lever.
100% agree, Miklós! weighted pulls have made the difference for me quite a bit, the only thing was that this session in particular was a high volume, hypertrophy-based session so I went for bodyweight. On your tip about the one leg variation, somebody made a similar comment on this vlog and since I started doing piked straddle, my front lever has blown up! I feel soooooo strong doing that. I had no idea how much the single leg tuck was limiting me. hopefully the full fl will come soon! 💪🏿
Really liking this style of video! I agree with your thoughts about pull ups. Weighted pull ups practically unlocked the FL for me. Have you tried holding a straddle at an angle? They say the dilemma w/ one legged progressions is that the pelvis position remains closed instead of adapting it to an open one.
100% - trying to get my weight pull ups up to 40% of bodyweight at the moment. I also see your point on the single leg variations. Feel that I can hold teh single leg for ages, but the moment I stick out my tucked leg even a little bit.... ❌ I'll give piked straddle a go in my next session. Thanks for the tip 👊🏿
@@CaliToTheCrowd For clarification, I was not referring to a piked straddle but rather a straight body line straddle with the body at something like 45 degrees in relation to the floor instead of the full FL parallel to the ground. The idea is that your training at the correct body shape but at a lower intensity :) Thanks for taking the time to read and reply to our comments!
Do you think it's possible to train straight arm strength and at the same time to train bent arm strength? For example, every other day? Do you feel this is a bad idea?
100% I personally train them together but I don't see why you couldn't split them in different sessions. As long as over all, you're recovering and seeing seeing progress, you do you 💪🏿👊🏿
Honestly, the best thing you could do would be to carry on doing calisthenics but make sure your daily step count always hit 12000 steps, and eat within a 300-500 calorie deficit... If you did that, you would definitely lose weight. That is my generic advise, but if you need anything more tailored, I'd advise seeking out a trainer 👊🏿

Cheers, Johann! That was one of the main reasons why I made this channel, so that means a lot!
Glad you're enjoying it 👊🏿
Is it just me or is it waay more motivating seeing somebody grind and graft rather than another person who can front lever for 15 hours non-stop
I'll continue filming myself fail then 😅

It is encouraging to see you struggle with this. Motivates me to work on my pulling strength too, bro!
My pain, we all gain!
Great tutorial you explained everything in great understandable depth thanks for that
No worries, Joseph! Happy you enjoyed it

Very funny comments between sets. Like to see your humor shining through in this vid
More of my crazy side you mean Ottik 😅
You channel is probably the most slept on thing on all of youtube. Can I ask how you got so well spoken. I would love to speak the way you do
Cheers Steve!
And no idea! I just grew up in London and this is the sound that came out of my mouth! 😅
I love everything about your channel! Please keep making more vlogs too
More incoming, Si
Your channel is an inspiration for me starting out
Thanks Daniella
Great video! Love the emphasis on face pulls and core!
You know it, Emily! 👊🏿💪🏿

Because i also wanted to do this ~
Advanced Tuck Front Lever " Pull ups " ⚡
More front lever videos incoming 💪🏿

Just tried it and LOVED IT. Screenshotted this comment for when I eventually film the 'I learned to front lever' video.
💪🏿
@@CaliToTheCrowd Sure man! Glad I could be of help 😀
What a brilliantly walked though vlog. I love understanding how you train and getting into your way of thinking it really helps me a lot
Cheers Jaxon!
I worked outside today as well! Great minds 😅
Was stunning weather!
Hi, i just wanted to ask you: have ever heard about the Dragon press? Im really curious to see whether you can do it 😄
I haven't heard of it before - I just gave it a google, and I seriously doubt I could do that haha!
Do you think it's possible to train straight arm strength and at the same time to train bent arm strength? For example, every other day? Do you feel this is a bad idea?
100%

@@CaliToTheCrowd Thx. Its really cool channel.
Hello sir I just started calstenicis but my lower body is fat so pls give exercise for glute fat, thighs and inner thighs pls 😢😢😢
Love your videos❤❤

The t shirt and sweatshirts sure do weigh you down
haha! 100% When I'm in a public gym and have to wear clothes, it's basicially like weighted calisthenics! 😂
