How to do L-sit (Step-by-step!)

Do you want to learn advanced moves like the planche or front lever but you feel that it's impossible?
 
That's absolutely OK, because the truth is that you should not start with these exercises.
 
Same as with other moves, no matter how much you like the Muscle up or the one arm chinup, until you don’t have the proper basics, they’ll seem impossible.
 
In static exercises it can be different but in reality, there is an order of exercises you should follow to ensure the maximal improvement.
 
In this video, I’m gonna show you the first static exercises you should start with, the L-sit!

This channel is underrated! Its cool to see someone preach about calisthenics from a real gymnast perspective!

Can you make a video on how gymnasts train....like how many hours per day...and what they do to avoid over training, injuries and maintaining the body while learning skills...

The quality of this channel is so high. I first click the like button and then watch the video. It will be good anyway.

Every video you do, Adam, is technically explicit, inspiring and hugely practical. You have an amazing talent as a coach\teacher.

I just received parallettes about 9 inches high, in the mail. This video is gold for me. I'm going to be smart this time and go step-by-step.

What should be a warmup for push pull legs calisthenics split and is it okay to do mobility routing as a warmup, for eg:on pull day i will do mobility routine related to back muscles, bicep and forearm muscles i.e pull muscles

[jermainejackson]

Irony. I'm a classic weight lifter, though for athletics not bodybuilding. I mastered body-up the first time I tried it. And It took me under two weeks to do a full planche. HOWEVER, I still struggle with the L-Sit, which is probably the easiest for most.

I assume it's because my legs are quite strong and the muscle weighs me down, adding difficulty to the exercise. So I just do them on my suspension trainer, so my slightly below 90-degree angle doesn't hinder me. But once a week for the past six-months sees me trying, and failing. I'll keep on going until I finally make succeed. Why not? What fun is life without stretch-goals?

This is great!! I'm still working at it and it's getting cleaner & closer.

[jayaniceday]

Heck, I would be happy to be able to do the wrong position of the L-sit he shows.

[kafukiken]

i will follow your method.
thanks so much

Great stuff! Is it ok if we lean back a bit and bring the pelvis forward s bit? Seems a bit easier this way for me, but maybe I need more compression...

[sprig]

Seriously you are the man. Love from the UK. This is real informative and highly educated information. Your channel will be the greatest.

[joedriver]

[duncanwalshfitnessweightlo]

Such a great exercise with so much room for progression or to incorporate it into a circuit.
