Perfect Front Lever Technique

The front lever is one of the most challenging static holds in calisthenics, demanding exceptional lat strength, core stability, and total body tension. ChAIron's AI coaching provides precise feedback for mastering this elite movement.

Step-by-Step Form Guide

  1. Starting Position: Begin in dead hang with overhand grip, shoulder-width apart
  2. Initiation: Depress shoulders and engage lats to begin lifting body horizontally
  3. Body Position: Maintain rigid straight line from head to feet, parallel to ground
  4. Hold Stability: Keep shoulders active, core braced, and legs straight throughout hold

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Allowing hips to drop below horizontal
  • Bending at hips or knees to make position easier
  • Insufficient shoulder depression and lat engagement
  • Attempting full lever without proper progressions
  • Losing core tension and body rigidity
