    The back lever is the first calisthenics skill beginners should learn. This bodyweight exercise improves straight arm scapula strength. The back lever targets the chest, deltoid and bicep muscles. If you're looking to make the back lever easier, use tuck body shapes. The good news is once you learn a back lever, the strength carries over into your planche journey. Get ready for your biceps and tendons to become bulletproof with progress. This back lever tutorial will explain perfect technique.
    Learn how to avoid common mistakes people usually make on this movement.

    What was the first calisthenics skill you learned? For me it was the handstand when I was 17.

    Can cause injury? This is how I tore my distal bicep. Strongly recommend doing pelican curls for a few months to provide strength at length in your biceps.

    • @FitnessFAQs
      @FitnessFAQs  3 місяці тому +7

      Supination chin-up grip for back lever is risky. Must progress patiently ++ alongside bicep isolation for injury mitigation.

    • @darkhorse1985
      @darkhorse1985 3 місяці тому

      Pelican Curls are also my go-to for the same purpose and for bicep development outside of the Chin-Ups.
      I felt strong in the first- time I tried the Back-Lever with which was actually in a supinated grip probably because of Pelican Curls(?).
      My Black-Lever was not great then technique was not best.
      I am certainly NOT disagreeing with Daniel Vandal here (a person I've a lot of respect for), but that also means I'm not a "yes man" either and I have done on minor subjects. Thank you @FitnessFAQs for this excellent video.

    I feel like I'm at the point where I could learn this one without too much trouble but honestly I always stayed away from it because it just seems kinda risky. Doing skin the cats gives an idea of how much stress is on your shoulder, then to extend... Idk. Prefer focusing on safer stuff.

    • @texasranger7687

      Between 4 &6 months for tendons and ligament. Fell what you can do at day 1 and try to not do more than 50% more than that for 1 or 2 months. Your muscle adapt fast and you fell like you can support it. But you tendon and ligament didn't evolve that fast.

    The back leaver is not a beginner skill. And certainly not the one with the supinated grip. A so called beginner has no business trying to even do any progression whatsoever to prepare for this grip in a back leaver at the beginner stage. I mean come on. There is so much a beginner should do before even trying to learn the back leaver yet alone the one with a supinated grip which is actually quite dangerous for unprepared people.

    • @loopingdope

      Maybe beginner here means "someone with a proper strength foundation choosing the first of the fundamental/legendary calisthenics skills". Like choosing between planche, front lever, back lever, manna, etc

    • @freehatespeech6804
      @freehatespeech6804 2 дні тому

      It's a beginner skill in that it's a good first skill to learn, not in that a complete beginner to lifting should be learning it. Beginners to lifting shouldn't start learning static skills. They should start with a year of basics (push ups, chin ups, pull ups, dips, rows, leg raises, and some isolations like ring curls and skull crushers, etc). Then, you can learn the back lever as your first skill.

      It is the easiest figure. When you have the basics done (pull up, chin up, push up, dips, handstand against a wall), you can start to learn figure. And the back lever is usually the easiest to learn for the most. BUT, as you said, if you are a beginner, you will just arm yourself. And he didn't say in his video that you need to have a minimum of physical condition to not hurt yourself with the back lever
