Flag
I’ll teach you several variations and provide a few levels of difficulty for this advanced pole move. Pay attention to the cues for breathing.
Strengthens: PECTORALS / TRAPEZIUS / LATISSISMUS / DELTOIDS / TRICEPS / BICEPS / ABDOMINALS / GLUTES / ADDUCTORS / ABDUCTORS / QUADRICEPS
how perfectly timed-just tried this today, before I saw your new lesson. Thank you!
This lesson is great. It would be really great if you could do a lesson on the flag inversion and/or the flag inversion climb. I can do these things, but I haven’t been able to get any really good advice about form, so they don’t look so good.
I had a good advice from a friend when I practiced this one. She told me its about strength bit it’s also about finding the balance with your elbow. after that I start to pay attention and I got it .
Hmmm…def. not a move for the enormously bosomed! It’s the closest I’ve gotten to it, but I think I’ll leave it for the smaller-chested, lol!
Lol
yes, my boobs get in the way big time on this move! It sucks, too, because I like it and find it pretty easy…except the boobs being in the way… 🙂
I got this last night after a year of unsuccessful attempts, I was pushing my elbow into the side of my abs not the centre, once central I got it straight away 🙂
Yay! I did a half flag today! ok, I will call it a 3/4 flag it was a little droopy but I’m excited. It’s a start! I like this move because the pole pushing against my arm makes my bicep look really big! haha!:)
Yay for big guns lol
Thanks Veena for the every details movement. Finally I get the right FLAG! lol
How do I train the weaker side other than doing flags? I am right arm dominant, and the one with the right arm at the bottom is easier for me.

It hurts the armpit of my top arm, but it feels more like the muscle in there and not the skin. Is that okay?
Sharp sudden pain is bad but feeling press is normal. To train the opposite side and the good side keep trying the position! You will also find related lessons below the main player that has a bunch of things to work on. ðŸ˜Å
Arrrgggggggg!!! 😫😩 this do difficult for me!! My legs feel like they are made of cement!! 😖
Lol totally normal!
