Flag Invert
[lesson id=’pN3GQzoF’]
The Flag Invert takes a high level of strength. You’ll first learn the set up and then the invert portion after that. Any level can begin working on the set up!
Strengthens: TRAPEZIUS / LATISSIMUS / PECTORALS / DELTOIDS / TRICEPS / BICEPS / ABDOMINALS / ERECTOR SPINAE / GLUTES / ADDUCTORS / HIP FLEXORS
I thought that it was basically a slightly fancier Brass Monkey. That is really cool.
Cool lesson! Thanks 🙂
Yay! thanks for this! been wanting to work on this one!
Love this!
this really is such a good lesson. I swear no one could explain that the way you did. it makes so much more sense now! when I would see others do this move, it just looked like they magically swing their legs up. I could not understand the technique behind it. You’re an effing genius!
I’ve been trying this move off and on for awhile and I’ve never seen it explained so thoroughly. Thanks for explaining it so well!
Woohoo! So glad to see this. “Continue working on the setup until it becomes comfortable, this may take weeks.” Lol, yep that’s how I’ve gotten all my strength moves; sheer persistence. For some moves it has been months or even years. Glad to have some technique to follow for this one.
I agree with Phoenix: you are definitely THE BEST at making pole tutorials. Your explanations are SO thorough! Thanks so much for all the time and thoughtfulness you put into your lessons. This one is badass!
I’m so pleased you all like it! It’s a tricky move to break down!
I love the blue hair too! and the outfit. you look like a yummy piece of candy! 🙂 I dont mean that in a pervy way. haha!
Nice! I’ve been working on this with the advanced exit for a week already. My instructor still needs to spot me cause my abs aren’t contracting, but I’m having so much fun with this brass monkey > sit-up . It makes it more challenging to enter from a shoulder mount. LOVE!!!
Ahhh, that’s awesome…new dream move….
I recently saw someone do this from fonji in a competition video. Cool. I’ll settle for mastering this!
