Street Workout figures: from easy to impossible!

Street Workout figure categories: from the most accessible to the most difficult

The four categories are as follows: 

1. The mortals
2. The Semi-Gods
3. The Olympians
4. The Titans

Figures to start with : The Mortals

First mortal figures: the L-SIT is based primarily on flexibility.

L-Sit / Square

Pull Over / Belly Up

This exercise can be used in particular for the firstBalanced Muscle-ups.

Muscle Up Balanced

At first, the technique will be a good challenge, allowing you to do muscle-ups without too much force. But the more you reduce your use of the legs and the swings, the more strength will become predominant and the exercise more difficult.

Let's move on to theElbow Lever, an exercise that will require reasonable strength if you have the mobility to tuck your elbows into your stomach and know how to play with balance.

We'll now mention the Pistol Squat as an affordable, well-balanced move where mobility and technique are an important part of the equation.

To conclude the mortal category, the famous Handstand which blends technique and balance.

The Handstand should be one of the first street workout figures you learn. It teaches you to be aware of your body in space and contributes to good shoulder health.

Surpass yourself and become a semi-god!

We now move on to the second category, that of the Semi-Gods.

We attack first with the pumps on one hand or brute force will greatly reduce the technical needs.

You can also try your hand at Dragon FlagAt first sight, this may seem a daunting exercise, but with a little perseverance, it's within reach.

Then there's the V-SIT, which requires a great deal of flexibility and strength to be pushed further and further.

We then move on to the Semi-Planche, which resembles an Elbow Lever except that this time we replace balance with strength.

We finish with Handstand Push up, which requires both strength and control.

The Street-Workout Olympians

We start with one of the best-known figures in Street Workout, the Back Lever which requires a certain mobility and technique, in addition to the strength needed for good form.

Then there's the Muscle up in force, where we don't really leave any room for technique.

Muscle Up in strength (false grip)

We prefer to use technique to learn the one-arm Elbow Lever, which becomes simpler with more strength but can be almost entirely a matter of balance.

We then come to what is probably the symbol of this sport, the most famous Street Workout figure in the world: the Flag.

Human Flag

We then move on to the famous Front Lever, the trick that everyone who wants to do Street Workout dreams of unlocking.

Another balancing act is the Hollow Back Handstand. You can do it with our Parallettes which can be found on our boutique.

Hollow Back Handstand

The one-arm Back Lever is a more technical trick than it might seem, although in the end pulling hard enough on your arm may be enough.

We continue our one-sided approach with the Hand Pull, which requires little more than sheer strength.

Single-arm pull

Finally, you can reach Zeus by Straddle PlancheA figure that will make you proud when you reach it. It's worth noting that flexibility can help here.

All the Street Workout figures we've seen so far are accessible to everyone, regardless of basic height and weight, as long as you put in the work, of course.
