Tucked L-Sit
Description
The Tucked L-Sit is an isometric hold that builds core strength and scapular depression. To perform it, place your hands on the floor or parallettes. Press down firmly to lift your hips off the ground, keeping your arms completely locked. Pull your knees toward your chest as high as possible while keeping your back as straight as you can. Focus on keeping your shoulders away from your ears by depressing your scapula throughout the hold.
