L-sit to V-sit series

[Luccaabit55]

thats tight how he ended it he has a lot of control

[planchentrick]

i can do an L-sit i can do a V-sit i can go from L to V if i start off kinda piked but how the heck do you go from a standard L all the way up to V is it more active flexibility than anything

[Fazioenterprise]

wow thats awesome.... i always do the L-sit and never thought of using that movement.... Adding that one in now!!! Great job on the vid!!!

[TheKillerMtl]

@Fazioenterprise Thanks man! Hope it works well for you now, and that it makes you stronger!

that's more like l-sit to russian

[slizzardman]

Very nice! you may really get a lot out of the gymnastic bodies program. Check out some of my videos, see if you like what you see with the workouts of the day (WODS), and if you're interested in a very methodical system of building high level gymnastic strength check out the gymnasticbodies web site! It's linked on my WOD videos.

You really are strong in the core and the active flexibility is tremendous!!!

[TheKillerMtl]

@slizzardman Thanks man, I'll definitely take a look. I already have my workouts, but we'll hang a pair of rings from the ceiling soon, in the gym where I live, so I might start to practice strength for gymnastics again. Your WOD might give me good ideas. :)

[slizzardman]

@TheKillerMtl Yup, you never know!

To clarify, the program and WODs are creations of Team Coach Christopher Sommer from the USA Jr. National team. It's the only one of its kind, no one else seems to have a program like this. I don't know why, but it has created a long line of state, regional and national champs and consistently creates excellent gymnasts. It seems he's pissed off a bunch of coaches by giving away so much to the public.

Anyways, whatever you do have fun with what you choose!

@slizzardman Hey Slizzardman! Thanks for reminding me about GB, I subscribed to it a few months ago, under the nickname Vagabond! Hope your training is doing well!

Did you have to train hard to achieve that hand position? How? I have to use a flat palm on the ground but would like to be a little higher.

[TheKillerMtl]

I'm really sorry, I did not have to train to achieve that hand position. It just came alone when I needed it. It's not very hard to do, just put your hand flat on the ground, then turn your thumbs the other side, to make them opposed to your fingers. And your fingers still stay flat on the floor. It is possible to do it on your finger tips, but it's more tirering.

awesome calves (les mollets). Congratulations.

[TheKillerMtl]

Thanks, lol. Just per curiosity, are you a culturist? (I know many culturists are obsessed by calves, ha ha...)

[veganbuddhist]

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­ Nice!

[InciteFitness]

That looks hard. Impressive!

[TheKillerMtl]

I rarely do series of this exercice. I think I could do it everyday, if I don't do too much. This is hard, but not too much.

[hermease]

Amazing skill!

TheKillerMtl, can you practice your technique everyday? How much rest does your body require?

[TheKillerMtl]

Are you enough flexible? I think a good thing would be to hold your l-sit the higher than you can for between 5 and 10 secondes, at least 5 times per day. And you need to push as high as you can each time. If you can, "pulsate" to go higher, then go a little bit lower, and pulsate again... And maybe practicing with someone to help you to push higher could be a good thing, too.

[LucasLockjipa]

amazing strenght!!

[TheKillerMtl]

Et aussi pour les abdos! Ça force bien les deux!

[matthewmovement]

Nice!

[FredSk8PrO]

Woah. Ça me semble être un excellent exercice pour les fléchisseur de hanches, non ? Je dois l'essayer !
