Chest/Back- 50s…

Reverse KB Floor Press: 53lbs

Kettlebell Row: 53lbs


*Try to get 50 reps in as few sets as possible. 


Floor Press: 23-15-12

Row: 23-15-12


*Alternate movements. Rest as 3 minutes in between sets. Post reps for both exercises in all rounds.


“Pick a weight that you try to do for 50 total reps over the course of three working sets. For most people, choosing a weight that allows you to get 18 to 22 reps on the first set is about right. Once you're able to get a total of 50 reps over 3 sets, add weight.


Warning: It's brutal”. - T Nation

The front lever is an advanced calisthenics move that requires significant core and upper-body strength. Here’s a breakdown of the primary muscles worked during the front lever:


1. Core Muscles

  • Rectus abdominis – maintains straight body position
  • Transverse abdominis – stabilizes the spine and pelvis
  • Obliques – assist with body tension and control. 

2. Back Muscles

  • Latissimus dorsi – primary mover that pulls the body into horizontal position
  • Rhomboids – help retract the scapulae
  • Trapezius (middle and lower) – scapular stability and depression
  • Teres major – assists the lats in shoulder extension

3. Shoulder and Arm Muscles

  • Deltoids (posterior) – stabilizing role
  • Biceps brachii – help maintain elbow flexion and assist lats
  • Brachialis and brachioradialis – support elbow joint
  • Forearm flexors – grip strength and wrist stabilization

4. Glutes and Leg Muscles (Isometric Support)

  • Gluteus maximus – keeps hips in line with the body
  • Hamstrings and quads – maintain leg tension and alignment.
