Z-hog Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Hello I have been training front lever for about 3 months now, and funny enough i can do a straddle front lever but not on a bar but on my door frame. The problem is when I try to do it on a bar, I fail miserably. Can barely hold advanced tuck. What am I doing wrong?Height 182cmWeight 76kg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toni Laukkavaara Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 maybe you got straight arms on the bar but not on the door frame? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WadeWilson Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) maybe you got straight arms on the bar but not on the door frame?I'm 100% sure it's that I would work on that, OP. You should stop doing it on the door frame and just stick to straight arm front lever. It contributes greatly to bent arm and straight arm strenght. And it looks cooler Correct me someone if i'm wrong Edited September 10, 2014 by WadeWilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z-hog Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 One more thing. I dont know if it is important but i never retracted my scaptula during front lever training. Now after doing some reaserch poeple say its very important to retract it when doing front lever. So i tried doing a front lever with it retracted and now my shoulders are in big pain. Is this the right way to do a front lever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
