The Tuck Front Lever Raise is a dynamic exercise to build the specific pulling strength needed for the front lever.

• Hang from the bar or rings with a shoulder-width overhand grip.
• Pull your knees toward your chest into a tight tuck position.
• Keeping your arms completely straight, pull your body upward by engaging your lats and shoulders until your hips are level with your shoulders and your back is parallel to the floor (or higher).
• Focus on keeping the scapula depressed (shoulders away from ears) and retracted.
• Lower yourself back down slowly and with control to the initial tucked hanging position.
• Do not use momentum or swing; the movement should be driven entirely by your upper body strength.
