German Hang

How to do it

Roll backward through your arms as in skin the cat until you hang behind your hands with your feet pointing to the floor. Let your shoulders sink slowly into the stretch, arms straight. Hold the position calmly and roll back with control.

Target range

Aim for 10 to 20 seconds in each set.

Ready for the next step

When you reach 20 seconds in every set, you are ready for the next level: Tuck Back Lever.

Where it fits

Step 2 in the Back Lever progression, which runs from easier to harder.
