Technique
How to perform L-Sit Muscle-Up
- Grip the bar overhand, hang with straight arms and bring your straight legs together into an L position in front of you.
- Pull your body upward while keeping your knees straight and maintaining the compressed angle between your thighs and torso.
- Bring your torso toward and over the bar as you turn your wrists and shoulders into the transition.
- Keep the hip angle compressed through the turnover; your legs may change angle relative to the floor as your torso inclines.
- Press through your hands until you reach controlled straight-arm support above the bar, without deliberately dropping your legs out of the compressed position.
- Reverse the press and transition under control to return to the L-hang.
- When finished, lower your legs and use a controlled exit from the bar.
