Technique

  1. Stand in front of a low bar, put your hands on it beside your hips with an overhand grip, and press up until your arms are straight.
  2. Push your shoulders down ( Shoulder depression ): do not let them elevate towards your ears.
  3. Lift your legs fully extended in front of you, parallel to the ground, and hold.

Form tips

  1. Balancing on a single bar makes the L-sit slightly harder than on Parallel bars or the floor: lean your shoulders slightly forward to stay balanced.

Risks

  1. If doing this on a higher bar, be careful not to fall back, and in any case try it on a low bar first.
