Train with my "Calisthenics Isometrics" workout program. Customized towards your level work on Handstands, Planches & Front Levers in a Push | Pull Split. courses.coachbachmann.com/calisthenics-isometrics/
This is exactly why my front lever felt way stronger the day after assisted one arm pull ups and deadlifts. LAT ACTIVATION! Even tho i was very tired the skill felt easier after those exercises. This is why feeling the right activation is important for any skill, and is the reason why some people learn them much faster. Well done
The big challenge for me is feeling the exact same contraction when you do the hanging shrugs. I will try these tips, see if this is helps me improve this transition. Nice video!
Nice one Coach B. Wondering, for the last exercise could you move on to a straight leg position in time ie pushing the box further away to get short holds in - say - a full straddle position for a few seconds before dropping the legs gently back to the box and resetting? Or is there little value in progressing like this … thanks for the great content!
Well. Yes and not. Yes. This can be used for straddle or straight front levers but I would instead recommend to put the bar as low as possible so with full retraction you are just not touching the floor. As soon as you give way and lose retraction you will touch the floor for instant feedback about your form. Yet, form box works to0. the no: For me this one only makes sense if you have an angle at your hips (tuck, adv tuck, super adv tuck) as taking the feet off is as simply as engaging the hip flexors. For straight or straddle you have to engaged something (anything) else to get the feet off which means energy/weight will be carried through the kinetic chain and go into your shoulders. For the purpose of practicing this alignment the more advanced progressions do not work as well here
I wouldn’t use the words barely and mostly. Yes. The front lever touch is gonna be more rear delt and triceps heavy but your lats are still doing significant amounts of work.
damn, ig im lucky for having the knowledge of retracting my scapula when i first started but at the same time, i couldnt make my booba dance like you do coach 🤣
this is a load of bs, saying chest and biceps will dominate on chin ups is the craziest takes i've ever seen, the chest and bicep muscles cant even pull you up, its always gonna be 90% lats even if your doing the chin up wrong. next your gonna tell me my push ups ingage the lats too much
Lats not main movers in pullups? That level of deception just to sound like you know something nonone else does is diabolical 🤦🏿♂️ Have a dislike, my guy.

First time I see a practical video explaining how to engage lats what is a major problem for me. Thank you and go on coach !
@@lekine9176 glad you like it! Thanks for watching
So strong!!! Love all your videos! Learn so much from you and I wish to be able to practice or train with you someday.

Yes! THIS! Deadlifts and front levers are so different yet feel so similar due to lat engagement. I think this is so cool!

You got this! Give it a try and let me know how it goes for you!
One thing that helped me with my mind muscle connection with my lats was learning the lat spread, now I can feel them at all times, TRY IT !
@@TheOmynG I’m gonna have to look into this. Thank you!
@@CoachBachmann Of Course 🙏🏾

Thanks for watching. Glad you're enjoying it!
Gonna try it out. Good quality material.
@@FszoQ thank you! Keep me posted on how it goes for you

Thanks Coach B - that sounds perfectly sensible, as usual! 🫡 Thanks for the response. I am giving this a go at my workout tomorrow. 🙏
@@simonpowell6127 def let me know how it goes!
coach, is it true that in fl touch, you barely use the lats and mostly the rear delts?
I wouldn’t use the words barely and mostly. Yes. The front lever touch is gonna be more rear delt and triceps heavy but your lats are still doing significant amounts of work.
Nice video!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thx for watching

It’ll all come over time. Especially the booba dancing ;)

Great!
