To be able to perform L-Sit you need strong triceps, abs and core. Work your way to the advanced calisthenics exercise using the L-sit Prep Workout. Once you feel more confident move up to the L-Sit exercise and try holding it for 5, 10 and 15 seconds. The goal is to eventually hold it for a full minute. If you are having trouble lifting yourself off the floor, we recommend using yoga blocks or performing the exercise using parallel bars.
Extra Credit: Hold L-Sit for over 20 seconds.
