hello everybod , this is my first post .
well , I have been training on the front lever for about 5 months and something is making me crazy : I am pretty able to hold a full one on the edge of a closet and the staires and even able to hold it with 2 fingers each arms on a playground's swing (straight arms too ) but still not being able to even hold it on a bar .
what is the problem ?
It's sound strange,basically the full grip (palm grip) prematurely activates the lats , so the bar grip makes it easier. can you post a video of both the form on the different apparatus?
sorry for the delay and thank you for replying !
I'll try to post a video of both the form .
Ah, also , is it true that doing a font lever with fingertips make it easier ?
I don't understand why it should be easier. the fingertips work does not improve itself the pulling movement with SA.
Bouzaidi, if I were you I would try experimenting with a thumb over, fingers only with no thumb and also false grip (making sure the elbows are straight), and find out which grip feels most natural for you.
