L-Sit & Pistol Support Sessions During Advanced Calimove
🧠 Objective
Following a consultation with the Calimove team, I’m adding two weekly support sessions to improve progress in L-sit and pistol squat during Phase 3–4 of the Advanced program. These are not full workouts, but technical activations designed to improve control, mobility, and awareness without overloading the system.
✅ Tuesday – L-Sit Activation (15 minutes)
- Sitting Leg Raise (1 leg) – 2×5–8 per side
- Reverse Plank Hold – 2×30 sec
- Tuck Compression Drill (floor sit, hands beside hips, lift knees) – 2×10 sec
- Lying Leg Raise (legs straight) – 2×10
- Dead Bug (with active core tension) – 2×10
✅ Thursday – Pistol Prehab (20 minutes)
- Deep Lunge w/ ankle mobility – 2×30 sec per side
- Bulgarian Split Squat (no weight) – 2×6 per leg
- Wall Sit – 2×30–45 sec
- Negative Pistol (using stick or doorway for balance) – 2×slow descents
- Glute Bridge March – 2×10 (alternating legs)
🌙 Evening Stretching Sessions (Tuesday + Thursday)
Instead of doubling Mobility 2.0 volume, I include relaxing evening stretches to unwind and support recovery:
- Pigeon Stretch – 2×30 sec per side
- Lunge with rotation – 2×30 sec per side
- Seated Forward Fold – 2×30 sec
- Seiza Sit + Ankle stretch – 2×20 sec
- Diaphragmatic Breathing – 3×10 deep breaths
These sessions aim to build smarter control and joint preparation for better long-term gains in L-sit and pistol squat—without risking overtraining.
