From Pullup to 10s Front lever | TUTORIAL

Thank you so much for watching! 💪🔥 I covered most things in the video but I recommend reading this either way :) -For increasing pullups and dragon flags, you can use the accumulation method, which I explain in the later part of the video. Works both for front lever and the basics. Instagram:   / hristo_wk   TikTok:   / hristo_wk   ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ MAIN ADVICE ✅ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ If you only want the biggest takeaways from my journey: 1. Build a strong foundation first. Working on previous progressions consistently helped me much more than constantly attempting full 2s full holds. What worked best for me was: mastering earlier progressions (5-7s) introducing dropsets (e.g. full hold → one leg hold) doing front lever raises 2. If your progress is very slow, it’s probably because of: skipping progressions poor form (Credit to ‪@hunterstein_wk‬ for that one) Both of these applied to me at one point, and they slowed my progress down a lot. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SOME CONTEXT 📖 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ I started calisthenics barely being able to do pull-ups and dips. Before this, I mainly trained for aesthetics with weights rather than strength. (around 1.5 years) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ THE JOURNEY 📈 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ My previous aesthetics training probably helped my early progress to some extent. I “unlocked” the front lever in around 2 months, but the form was not good. After that, I struggled badly with adding time to the hold. I spent a lot of time doing the wrong things because I didn’t realise I needed a stronger foundation first. What finally worked for me: training previous progressions properly using dropsets (e.g. full hold → one leg hold) front lever raises improving form instead of chasing longer holds with bad technique if form drops below a 6/10, stop the set. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ DATES 📆 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1 August 2025 — Started calisthenics 8 October 2025 — Started front lever training 11 December 2025 — Officially “unlocked” the skill 11 December → 1 April — Wasted a lot of time training incorrectly, so I decided to work with ‪@ugo_otz‬ 1 April 2026 — Huge progress within one month of coaching + learned a lot more about training 4 May 2026 — First 10 second front lever hold --------------------------- Credits: --------------------------- Song: Miss You Composer: Middle Child Website:    / @middlechildmusica   License: Creative Commons (BY-NC 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
