Brian Li Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Street workout guys call this move "one arm planche" No the body is facing more sideways than down. One arm planche would be with the torso facing down. A lot of street workout athletes have more of a flag than a one arm planche. I saw a picture of a handbalancer doing a one arm planche on someone's head before, but I can't find it right now. Below is a video of a one arm planche. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Li Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Closer to a handstand than a planche, but still impressive.I wonder if it's possible to hold a weight in the free hand and do a true single arm side lever? Probably too awkward to bother, but I bet there's some potential for some truly creative cirque execution there.Actually, a perfect flag (one arm side lever) without any counterweight assistance is within human limits.

Ivan Pavlovic Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I want to see this planche or one arm flag or however it is called without benting arm in elbow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Pavlovic Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I don't think anyone has achieved that yet.It's probably impossible because it will put too much pressure on elbow, but also it would bee nice to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this video, the flyer presses through a [straddled] one arm flag twice: It's also full of other bad-assery: they do a hand-to-hand maltese, and lower through a hand-to-hand inverted cross. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is ridiculously brutal! That start with a hand-to-hand muscle up to press to handstand then to inverted cross to a neck to neck. And that jump from the shoulders straigth into a straddle planche =OOOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure I said this a month go about another video, but this is the probably the most impressive bodyweight strength display I've ever seen. Edit: Now I've seen this though and I dont even know what is real anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Aldersley Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 In this video, the flyer presses through a [straddled] one arm flag twice: I've watched this video like 5 times in the past hour or so, just amazing. The music, lighting and mood is perfect. I just want to clarify the move at like 2:10 - would you call it a one arm press to handstand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitnessTheFitness Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 All of Raw Art's videos are awesome, I used to watch them before every workout for inspiration. I think of that move as more of a one arm planche, too. By one arm side lever, I meant on a pole/grabbing some object with your arm to the side rather than on the ground. That is impossible, I'm pretty sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flavio85 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I'm training something similar to a 1 arm side lever - I'm hanging from a pull-up bar with one hand and trying to get my body parallel to the floor and torso facing the wall, does that have a name?

I call it the sideways OAFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Aiken Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 The difficulty of doing a flag with such huge balls must be through the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Li Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 should I also PPT in the sideway version, right?Yes, and also try not to arch at all with the obliques. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
