L-Sit Rope Climb
The rope climbed with the arms alone while the straight legs are held out in front in an L; the foot lock is gone and the abs hold the legs up the whole way.
How to do it
Setup
Hands high on the rope, legs lifted straight out in front to hip height, toes pointed.
Steps
- Pull up and reach one hand above the other.
- Keep the legs at hip height with every pull.
- Climb down hand under hand with the legs still up.
Common mistakes
Legs sinking as the arms tire: hold the L or come down. Kipping the legs to climb: they stay still; only the arms move. Sliding down: the rope burns; lower hand under hand.
Breathing
Steady with each reach.
