Bouzaidi Jamel Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 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 ?

Alessandro Mainente Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 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? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouzaidi Jamel Posted July 16, 2016 Author Share Posted July 16, 2016 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 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandro Mainente Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I don't understand why it should be easier. the fingertips work does not improve itself the pulling movement with SA. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Searra Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 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.
