L-SIT Foundation
+ LEVELS: 3
+ 2 DAYS/WEEK
+ 25-30 MIN.
The L-sit primarily targets the strength of the core muscles, including the abdominals and hip flexors, but also factors in the mobility components of the lower back and hamstring. By consistently practicing L-sits, you'll develop exceptional compression strength, which is an essential piece to learning a variety of other gymnastics exercises
By building strength, flexibility, and body awareness through L-sit training, you'll progress toward achieving these impressive skills and more.
Mastering the L-sit lays the foundation for more advanced gymnastics movements, like the V-sit, straddle L-sit, and eventually, the elusive Manna.
Take the first step towards building a strong core with our L-Sit Foundations program in the Power Monkey Training app.
