Straight arm inversions are super hard and take a lot of different muscle groups to execute safely and effectively. They are not to be rushed. Here are some drills to help you work toward your straight arm inversions.
Note: If you cannot yet do a bent arm inversion, DO NOT attempt straight arm inversions. Work on your bent arm (brasos T-Rex style) inversions first. You can find a few videos on my channel to help you with bent arm inversions. Here are a few.

These are great! Thank you!
You are very welcome!
I have been working on straight arm inversions for literally three years and trained with so many people without success. (I can do one with bent knees but it hurts my neck😦.) The drills starting at about 5:00 are super tough for me so hoping this might be the missing piece!!🤞🤞🤞
I hope so too. Keep me posted. They are just hard and take some time.
@@KerriKresinski I'm feeling stuck at the 5:00 drill--can't seem to get my knees high enough to straighten my legs. Any tips? Thanks. (The pistons are a great drill!!)
@@jb92024 it could be hamstring flexibility or hip flexor strength issue, or both. It could also be just a little more core and shoulder stability. Keep trying and definitely work the active pike too!
Nice straight arm strength video Kerri. Curious what your thoughts are on using bent arm work to help your straight arm techniques like how athletes use handstand and pike pushups for improving handstand strength. I’ve personally found that tuck front lever rows really help the scapula retraction strength needed for the middle of your inversion. Also noticed that L-sit pull-ups have been nice for the lat, bicep, and forearm power you’ve got to have for any hanging straight arm pulling movement. What would your recommendations be for going on to straight body straight arm inversion work (front lever presses)?
Well I would surely start from the pencil inversion and do negatives, meaning moving towards a planche. I don't personally do lever presses, and have never coached anyone in them, so that is not my expertise. But moving from the pencil invert toward planche position is a great exercise.
