Brian Li Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Does a wide grip FL or even the victorian work the lats harder than a normal FL? I know the lats are very weak in transverse shoulder extension and the wide grip FL and victorian are partially transverse shoulder extension, but at the same time the leverage is lower with a wider grip which may require more force from all the pulling muscles. I know the wide grip FL works the rear delts and triceps harder and is overall harder than a normal FL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kutay Serova Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 A wide grip front lever is more victorian work. the victorian is much harder than a front lever. You have to watch your scapula positioning. It's a difficult position. If you want to train a victorian, take a look at this thread.http://www.gymnasticbodies.com/forum/topic/11567-victorian/?hl=victorianI think you should focus on the scapular retraction but try asking someone who can do it. The form is very important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
