How to Progress From One Leg to Straddle Front Lever | CALISTHENICS | Front Lever Tutorial

Stuck on the one leg front lever? Here's how to progress to the straddle front lever!
I'm about to tell you something that hardly any other calisthenics influencers will tell you.
The front lever is hard. And it takes a long time to achieve.
But if you know how to train it effectively, then you can learn it quicker and safer. And that's what this front lever tutorial is all about.
In this tutorial, I show you how to progress from the one leg tucked front lever to the straddle front lever. This is a notoriously difficult transition for many calisthenics athletes, so I wanted to make this video to give you all the awesome tips and front lever progressions you need to succeed with your front lever training.
For those who read my descriptions, here is a bonus tip. Many people ask me "How often should I train the front lever?" I personally get the best results when I train it 2-3 times a week. It's an intense calisthenics skill that is very alien to the body. Therefore, it's important to train it regularly so that your body (1) gets used to holding it and (2) remembers how to hold it. Ever heard the expression "if you don't use it, you'll lose it"? Well, it's especially true for the front lever. Consistency is key.
This front lever tutorial also contains a bunch of front lever exercises that you can add into your front lever workouts. If you want to learn more front lever progressions, then check out my full front lever guide (link below). It's suitable for calisthenics beginners as well as intermediate athletes, as it covers all the major front lever progressions from the tuck front lever to the full front lever.

Im currently at the one leg tucked FL - Your step to advanced is so simple and yet not one i had thought about. So i usually skipped this step and got into much to hard alternatives. Thx

[@rigoz_sw5248]

Amazing tutorial! Well done!

[@brandonledwaba618]

I've been waiting for this kind of video. Thanks for the content.

[@Starstrike21]

your videos are great man, been watching a bunch recently and trying out stuff

[@Ibssssss]

Exactly what I needed

[@Sebastian-yl5vz]

Yes! i need this tutorial, im struggling with stradle front lever. thanx u

[@sagargoalstar2523]

It's wonderful tips. Although I don't have this equipment. Please keep uploading video ❤️❤️

[@ninadsbhatt100]

I am not practising front lever but your knowledge and skills are amazing.

[@bachnguyen1525]

IMHO, the "advanced" one leg is more useful and heavier than the straddle. Straddle is just to hype up your motivation

[@izebdeh]

Thanks for the tips bro. Every time I attempt the straddle my hips start to cramp. Hopefully these progressions will help

[@dimohamburg1969]

Great content! Thanks a lot for sharing your insights

[@AshtonFitness]

Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@luiskainz4350]

a tutorial on dragon flag (only shoulder supported) please

[@chriswhitley1535]

Great Video! Dnt forget about the Half Lay, i feel like alot of front lever tutorials tend to leave that progression out. I feel it should come right before the legit full FL. Great Video btw brotha💪🏾💪🏾

[@AshtonFitness]

Thanks man 💪🏼 That progression will be included in the straddle to full front lever tutorial. It's one of the hardest progressions so it'll be in the last video

[@chriswhitley1535]

@@AshtonFitness appreciate the reply brotha!

[@chriscox1535]

@@AshtonFitnesspretty soon we need the straddle to full front lever video . Thanks again for posting the advance tuck front lever to the 1 leg front lever this year .

[@giulicoppi]

💪👏 Ps: nice Marshall amp;)

[@AshtonFitness]

Hahaha thanks bro, good spot 😜

[@faxxxu2232]

Tnx man it's okay my front lever training is only in pull day?

[@omsofi1111]

I was training planch for a month and i cant do a tuck planch correctly But i can do this with little training

[@BreakingJJC]

I’m hoping soon advance tuck front lever to one leg front lever since is hard to bridge the gap between advance tuck front lever to 1 leg front lever

[@AshtonFitness]

I responded to this on the other front lever tutorial, but I'll reply here too. Your wish has been granted ✨🙌🏼✨ - here's the advanced to one leg front lever tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/epS9fZ-khLCNgsk

[@BreakingJJC]

@@AshtonFitnessI can finally hold 1 leg front lever for 10 secs for each leg for 1 set . Should I try the straddle front lever attempt ?

[@AshtonFitness]

@@BreakingJJC Well done bro! I always say listen to your body - but after holding the advanced tucked one leg front lever for 10 seconds, a straddle front lever should be achievable

[@alexm3046]

Is it possible to bypass the straddle altogether by progressing in the following manner? one leg advanced tuck -> one leg super advanced tuck -> one leg half lay -> full front lever

[@AshtonFitness]

Yes, I'm sure it is! I've never done it (I wanted the "instant" gratification of the straddle front lever) but I'm sure that's another very possible route. I experimented with the super advanced tuck one leg front lever a few weeks ago, and it felt (and looked) pretty good! I'd never done it before, for some reason. So yes, I'm sure that would be another path of progression too 💪🏼

[@faxxxu2232]

Hey Ashton I don't have pull up bar but I'm on one leg front lever now can I use this with rings?

[@AshtonFitness]

Yup!

[@LAKBOARDBR]

Its so good when ashton remember his channel password

[@AshtonFitness]

LOOOOOL that made me laugh 😂😂😂💪🏽💪🏽 Apologies for the infrequent uploads - I'm still dealing with shoulder injury recovery and also the demotivation that comes with that. It's very hard to make content when you have both of those things to deal with. I'm on the mend now, though, which is good 🙏🏽

[@LAKBOARDBR]

@@AshtonFitness glad to know that you're well now. You're one of my favourite calisthenics channels, you explain very well the tecnique of the exercises

[@Annoyingperson0-0]

Early but nit first

[@KingBrit-un5bf]

Song/audio name?

[@AshtonFitness]

It's a song I made called Rain. You can listen to it on my other channel, Decrepid Monk: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWSVdqiiaciUirMsi=6WavRyAmro65egpg

[@Shadowsthetics]

I can hold 1 Leg FL but i have a shitty straddle FL

[@AshtonFitness]

That's alright, it takes time. Just stay consistent, that's the main thing
