That balance point is so... Shosh! Filming! Welcome back to School of Classics from the playgrounds we're in Sunningland. It is absolutely Baltic. Especially some of the time. It's four degrees, called as my Instagram InstaStories. And today we're a nice little how-to for you about an elbow lever, which is a nice progression on from some of the beginner calisthenics work we've been doing. It also makes... It's a hand balancing exercise, but it's a little bit easier being horizontal in hand balancing than in a vertical position, which is the hands then, because you've got more weight just used to either side of that center point where your hands are. So we create a seesaw effect and that's what we're going to look at today. It's a really nice little progression, guys. You've got long term objectives again, some planche work and also for a back lever. Starting to learn to lengthen your body out over that basic support and try and create that full body tension in the horizontal position. It's a really nice little progression and it's going to fit into some longer term training for you. Just on the side note about that, we often get people to go, just style calisthenics, have you got a planche training program for me yet? You know, I think that's a little bit further down the line, but this is going to help us to get there.

Okay, so step one is what we call a flat frog, where a little bit different from your normal frog stand, where we're here, we're going to go and try and get into this flat position where we're more horizontal. So a couple of key points to start with is where the elbow, we're going to rotate the hands to the point in backwards, you think it's pointing backwards, so that when you bend your elbow, it's going to be able to go either side of your belly button. And then Tim's just going to rock forward with his knees bent like that frog position. And then he's going to be resting in there, tips forward, he's trying to be way, way more flatter than we are in our frog stand. So we're going to have a look at the straddle elbow lever to start off with. This is a real simple exercise. And just by spreading the legs out, we shorten the lever length a little bit. And that means it just makes it a little bit easier, because we've got less mass to have to worry about. So as day goes into his horizontal frog position, the legs think out to the side, the lever length is shorter, less to worry about. And it makes it a little bit more simple to start to find that balance point. If you're ready to get the legs straight out and we can start to play around that full position, this little toe-off position just helps us to start to really get an extra balance point on the ground and to see where that actually seesaw position needs to sit to get this nail down. So they've goes into full position, he's got his toes on the ground. And as he starts to shift his weight forward, he can just pull the one toe off. He can feel you use that one toe on the ground just to help him to feel that balance position. This is actually a really nice, an asymmetric strength exercise as well, just by having the toe on the ground, but practicing that lean forward is going to help to develop some of that extra strength in the shoulders and arms, which you're going to need if you're going to support that full position. So that's it guys. There's a really nice little elbow lever there to play around with. Greatest to play around more with your hand balancing, just to develop some skills and confidence in those movements. It's going to help you the trunk alignment. You don't need any equipment, so you can have a go there outside in the freezing cold or inside your house in the warmth. But until next week, make sure you click subscribe.
