How to get from a Tucked to a Full frontlever FAST | Tutorial
what's up guys in this video I'm gonna
show you how I went from an advanced to
Chrome leaf or twig bullfrog a way
[Music]
alright guys - welcome to the front Lee
for informational video in this video
I'm gonna show you how I went from a
advanced tech front leaf or into a full
front leaf or within six months and I'm
gonna discuss two different topics today
and I brought my white boards today so
I'm gonna take some notes on this I hope
you guys can see it and I will zoom in
the camera so you can see it better so
the first thing I'm gonna discuss is my
training method and the second thing is
my training routine so my training
method how many times did I train for
the front Leifer and how did I structure
my workouts
well as I already mentioned in another
video in which I explained my French
training method I told you guys that I
train the planche and front Leifer on
skill days during the same workout and I
do this workout two times per week so
first
alright guys so I have just written down
my training method that I have used for
the past six months and that I still do
so a Monday a skill workout
Blanche front Lee for Becky for in the
handstand Tuesday a strength workout
when I focus on the bent arm exercises
such as the muscle up and Hanson
push-ups and the basics for example
Wednesday I train my legs and for this
day has also been a crucial part to my
flinch and front li4 journey and
progress because I feel like when you're
doing deadlifts and a lot of different
core exercises that will benefit your
planche and firmly fir
so and then on Thursday I have one day
off so I take some rest I'll do some
mobility and flexibility routines and
then on Friday I have my skill workout
again so that's the second skill workout
the second time when I train for their
front Leifer and then on Saturday I have
my strength workout when I focus on the
bent arm exercise again and most of the
time I do weighted calisthenics on
Saturdays and also some freestyle so
that's all about the training methods I
already discussed this in another video
but I just want to emphasize this again
because here you can see that I trained
two times per week for the front leg for
and the planche and when it comes to
skills guys frequency is key it's way
more efficient when you train more
frequent for a skill especially for a
handstand but also for front Leafers
then when you do just won't work out
each week and go all the way so at least
that it's what I've personally found
most beneficial for me so that's what I
advise you to do the same so that was
all about my training method right here
and now I'm gonna talk about my training
routine and I will discuss the two
different workouts that I did so I will
show you all the different exercises
which I did on the skill workout on
Monday but also the skill workout on
Friday
all right guys so let's have a look to
my training routine as you might know I
always start with some static exercises
so I will show you the two different
workouts that I did
and with these skill workouts guys I
focused on two different aspects and
those two different aspects are positive
movements and negative movements also
known as the upward movement and the
downward movement of the front lever and
I also used this training approach for
my planche and I have just found this
most beneficial for me so I will show
you exactly what I did and what I still
do so on Monday the first skill workouts
I focused on the downward movement off
the front lever and also for the planche
but I will only discuss the front leap
today and I divided my workouts into
statics dynamics and core exercises so
as you might know statics are wholesome
calisthenics and with this you can think
of a front leaf or halt when you're
trying to hold a certain position as
long as possible
so for the front leaf or workout on
Monday I did firmly for Holtz without a
resistance band so that's the first
exercise from me for waltz and I do this
for 3 sets and for a minimum amount of
time for 5 seconds so at least I want to
have a 5 second hold as otherwise I
don't feel like I'm training and then
after that I do assisted front leaf
revolts with a resistance band
[Music]
with this exercise I'm gonna try to do
it for at least 10 seconds into the food
front leaf or movement so my body can
adapt to the position that I'm trying to
reach so for me it was the food front
leg first so I always did a full front
leaf or in Aris with a resistance band 3
sets of 10 seconds and I take 2 minutes
rest in between sets and we move on to
the second part of the workout which are
dynamics and for those that are new here
at this channel or people that just want
to start with calisthenics dynamics are
exercises when you move from a certain
position to another position and the
dynamic exercises guys have played a
crucial part with Murph only to progress
because with these exercises I was able
to move in like the full angle of every
certain position from the front lever so
right here right here and also right
here and I feel like you need to get
stronger at every certain position and
not only at the probably for whole
position so that's kind of the reason
why I implement these dynamic exercises
and I've just heard from a lot of top
athletes here in the Netherlands as such
as Flying Dutchman
[Music]
and also mute
[Music]
it told me about these dynamic exercises
and when I incorporate these exercises
into my own workout routine
I noticed a tremendous progress though I
recommend you guys to also implement
this in your workouts so let's have a
closer look to the dynamic exercises and
this is where it comes to the downward
movements of the front lever so the
first dynamic exercise is a front leaf
or drop plus a home so with this
exercise you want to go all the way up
to the bar and then you just want to
lower your body until you reach a
horizontal position and that's where you
want to hold it for like two three
seconds and then you go down and you do
it again and you don't want to do this
with the full movement the full front
leaf or because that's maybe too hard so
I always did this with the one leg
version and this is how you train the
muscles eccentric and I have found that
when I incorporate these eccentric
movements I really started to notice and
increase in my strength
so that's the first dynamic exercise the
second that I always did on this skill
workout a full front leaf drop as slow
as possible and with this exercise you
want to go to the bar again and then
lower as slow as possible for like five
or ten seconds and with this exercise
you can incorporate a harder variation
so for example when your current maximum
fully for hold is a constant or a one
leg version you can now try to do a
straddle firmly for because that's the
way how you body can adapt to lowering
down in that certain position all right
so
and then the fifth exercise that I did
are
ice-cream makers and with this exercise
you incorporate a little bit of a
pulling movement a row movement which is
also very important for the front lever
because you don't only need a straight
arm strength for the family but also a
bent arm strength and to finish this
workout off
I always did some core exercises and I
divided the core exercises on these two
different days in dynamic core exercises
and static core exercises so on this day
I did dynamic core exercises such as
dragon flies those two bar and leg races
I actually forgot to mention the sets
and reps and the rest you need to take
place what I did and on the dynamic
exercises you want to do more reps so
you want to do at least six to eight
reps because now you want to build
strength
so when building strength you want to do
at least a certain amount of reps so
that was all about the first skill
training routine of the front leaf or
when I focus on the downward movement
and now we're gonna have a closer look
to my second from leaf workout when I
focused on the positive movement the
upward movements
so with this workout I focused on the
positive movements the upward movement
of the front Leifer and I always start
with static exercises and this is
basically just a check where our mat at
the front Leifer so I always do this
three times five seconds without the
band and then three times ten seconds
with a resistance band and then I move
on to my actual workout which are the
dynamics and here it's gonna be
different from the first skill workout
first exercise that I did are only four
races and this exercise guys have been a
crucial part in my fully for progress
because now you're working on your
straight arm strength from here to this
position so you're not only gonna be
stronger at this point but from here to
here here here this is where you're
gonna get stronger so you're gonna get
stronger at every single position of
your back muscle and then the second
exercise that I did are from Li four
drops
plus a race so with the previous
exercise I focused on this movement
until here and with the firmly for
droplets a race I lower into a fro
leaver and then I go like this so now
I'm working on this way this angle so
when implementing these two exercises I
make sure that I'm getting stronger at
this full position full range of mode
that's what I always try to do then the
fifth dynamic exercise is a front knee
for hula and with this exercise I make
sure that I also work on my pulling
strength on my row strength and this
activates the middle of your back
muscles so these are the dynamic
exercises that I do found a upward skill
workout and then I finish my work us off
with some core exercises and found the
previous workout I did dynamic core
exercises and on this workout I do
static core exercises though the
exercises that I did are a dragon flag
so this is the same as a dragonfly but
now you're not moving up and down but
now you're gonna hold it and this really
will benefit your front knee for because
you're in that exact same position with
your feet and your core so your core
needs to work in the exact same way when
you're doing in front leaf or oh
definitely try this exercise guys and
then the second exercise is a hanging
l-sit and the last one
a hollow body hold all exercises that
really works the core and that will
benefit your front liver and guys I have
also written down sets and reps you need
to take I'll zoom into this so you can
apply this for your own workouts right
here so guys this was my training method
as you see on the left board and my
training routine as you can see on the
right board so that was it guys that was
all about my training method and my
training routine for the front Leifer
and I just want to say one last thing
how you can improve your workouts as
well and that is to analyze your
workouts by filming recording your
workouts and also tracking all your
results in a logbook because then you
can see if you're actually are
progressing every single week then you
can try to beat that every single time
and that will also motivate you to keep
on going so that was it that was all
about but my front leaf or tutorial my
tips and my training methods so I hope
you guys find this video informational
that will help you out with your own
workouts and if you are still struggling
with your workouts I would make me a
routine with combining certain exercises
such as the planche and stand firmly for
making a digital log book for yourself
if you want some help with this you can
check our online coaching plant go to
our website and I can definitely show
you that it will help you out because we
will have weekly Skype sessions in which
I will check your form and technique and
I personally will also have a look into
your own digital logbook so you've got
to make sure that your gonna train and
get those results and beat those results
every single week so that was it guys
and for the next video guys I'm thinking
about doing a video about a six pack F
routine if you guys want to see that
then just let it know in the comments if
I reach at least 50 comments then I will
do it so just let me know and that was
