This is the hybrid part of our hybrid calisthenics week. I got the idea from here to have a test day the last Saturday of each 4 week block. Everything was added weight or added rep. PB on bench, deadlift, squat, pull-up reps.

Hello fellow fitness enthusiast's, This is Ravi. Just joined the fab crew, hoping to get my motivation levels back after not being able to continue to take care of my body. I want my fitness level to peak again hopefully in double quick time 🙂

A lot of people want the front lever and back lever because they look awesome. And they are awesome. But most people make the same mistake: They try the full skill way too early, feel weak, swing around for a bit, and then assume they are not built for it. That is not the problem. The problem is usually the progression. So let’s break down: • what makes these skills worth it • how to actually start • the real progressions • the common mistakes 🔥 Why these skills are worth it The front lever and back lever are not just flashy skills. They build a lot of useful things: • straight arm strength • shoulder control • core tension • body awareness • grip strength • confidence hanging upside down or horizontally The front lever especially builds incredible pulling strength. The back lever builds a lot of shoulder opening, control, and straight arm awareness. They also teach you how to create full body tension instead of just moving one muscle at a time. 🧱 Before you even start If you want to work toward levers, make sure you already have at least some basics: • active hangs • hollow body hold • solid rows or pull-ups • comfort hanging from a bar or rings • basic shoulder control For back lever, I would also want at least: • shoulder mobility work • some comfort with skin the cat progressions • patience That one especially is not a skill to rush. 🏁 Front lever progressions For most people, the real front lever path looks like this: • active hang • scap pulls • tuck front lever hold • tuck front lever rows • advanced tuck front lever • one leg front lever • straddle front lever • full front lever You can also use: • front lever negatives • front lever raises • band-assisted holds Those are great once you are already close. What matters most for front lever The front lever is not just “hang and pray.” You need: • shoulders pulled down and locked in • strong lats • strong core • body tension from shoulders to toes Think about trying to make your whole body one solid piece.
