Faith is a cop-out. If the only way you can accept an assertion is by faith, then you are conceding that it can’t be taken on its own merits.
--Dan Barker--, "Losing Faith in Faith", 1992

APK Warmup

Workout- Skill Work- The Front Lever

For 20:00, work the Front Lever Progression along with any related skills, namely inverted hangs to slow lowering into the lever or one-legged lever position (from beast skills), and "Ice Cream Makers" where you swing into a lever position pause. Towards the end of the time-period some strategically placed Leg Lifts will help finish off any last semblance of low-ab strength you may have left.

Post the progressions used or any questions to comments. Compare to 9-28-09

Nice I love it when you post the WOD this early.

Can't do front levers yet, so I did weighted crunches, a core-centric deadlift a new friend at the gym showed me, and bent-knee L-sits. Gotta start somewhere. Any suggestions for core workouts to get to L-sit and lever status?

Check out Beast Skills' tutorials on L-sits and levers. They usually include good exercise to do to build up to a lever or L-sit and loads of other things.
