Hey Guys,

What you think about training the front lever with ankle weights ? Do you think my hold gets stronger and longer or should i train just with my bodyweight? and what about with planche ?

If you can do 30 sec hold FL is no longer a strength work for you and you should consider it as a warm up. in the code of points it is an A.

same thing for planche.

if you can't, you simply need to follow the correct periodization in order to improve the time under tension of a set.

30 seconds? i can hold it for 18 seconds and want to start now with weights 

Alessandro Mainente

Excuse me but why did you asked for more experienced people opinion if you have already made your decision?

Alessandro is correct.  You are not ready for weighted front lever work.
