Tucked Human Flag

Description

Start by gripping a vertical pole or stall bars with one hand high in a pulling position (palm facing you) and one hand low in a pushing position (palm facing away). Kick or lift your body into a horizontal position while keeping your knees tucked tightly to your chest. Focus on pushing hard with the bottom arm and pulling with the top arm to keep your body level. Engage your obliques and core to prevent your hips from sagging or rotating.
