This is a hard but very intense movement that gives you massive amounts of strength and is one of those exercises with body weight that gives you big arms and a big back because it's so difficult. The strain of this move I would say goes through most of your body. It's incredible what it will do and the results it gives you. The muscle groups it works out are your forearms, biceps, lats, shoulder blade muscles, a little of your traps, your abdominals, for holding your legs up your quads, and your obliques.
Also to keep your arms comfortable together your pectorals are slightly engaged.
Would you like to know how to do these now? I would presume you do. Let us begin.
First off, for prerequisites, you need to learn how to do a regular front lever and be able to crank out some serious pull ups. Many of the exercises I provide in this blog will give you such benefits and abilities to progress to this movement.
So first, you must go into the front lever position, for this movement you may need to tuck a leg in at first. Step one is to hold your core tight and strong. When you pull up do not bend your elbows to the side, they must directly go forward in the direction that they face as you go upwards. Keep your chest somewhat rounded and continue on.
There you go. Front lever pull ups. They're a little simple, but they take time to master because of their difficulty. Have fun and safe practice.
