Hello everyone. i start train about a year ago with absolutely no experience with little strength ( was able do about 4 - 5 full pull-ups) my probleme is that i have problem with front lever i just can't do it!! my core is pretty strong i train dragon flag, and i can do sholder flag and hold about 10 sec. but the shoulder/back muscles that help you to go to front lever position and hold are too weak. i not found any exercises in calisthenics that train that muscles. i train the tuck front lever hold with straight arms!

.

please help me with best calisthenics exercises that improve and build the "front lever muscles"..

try to train front lever raises at first with swing and then without if you cant without , next exercise one leg in one leg out static dynamic and switch your legs

thats what i did and got my front lever in 1 month but i still have problems with it but i think 2 months progress is ok
