    How to: Front Lever Reps

    1. Hang from a bar or rings with an overhand grip.
    2. Engage your core and pull your body up while keeping it straight.
    3. Hold your body parallel to the ground at the top position.
    4. Lower your body back to the hanging position with control.

    Common Mistakes

    • Rounding the back
    • Using momentum instead of controlled movement
    • Not fully engaging the core during the lift

    Modifications

    • Perform the exercise with bent knees for reduced difficulty.
    • Use a resistance band for assistance during the movement.

    Tips

    • Maintain a neutral spine to prevent lower back strain.
    • Focus on slow, controlled movements to maximize muscle engagement.
    • Keep shoulders retracted to avoid rounding the back.
