Bar muscle up drills (strict and kipping): MASTERY

[@PowerMonkeyFitness]

Thanks for watching! Where is the sticking point that mastering these bar muscle up drills will help you overcome?

[@davidserra6206]

The grip change (2:46) is still a sticking point for me. My wrists are not rotating during my muscle-ups and this put tremendous strain on my forearms. I will try and focus on this grip change movement.

[@jhgann]

For strict, I can false grip pull up, but possibly not high enough, as I can't yet get my center of gravity over the bar. I'm stuck in front of it. Feels so close though.

[@PowerMonkeyFitness]

@@jhgann keep practicing and working on that low pull strength. Also this would be a good area to incorporate eccentric work to build that strength. Try a slow and controlled lowering from above the bar to full extension. Get it!

Seriously the best tutorial yet. Can’t wait to try that build drill

Get it!! Let us know how it goes!

@@PowerMonkeyFitness Yes sir,I want to know something more about active and passive stretching which gymnast should do.I wanna know that can I be more flexible? If now my level is intermediate.

@@akashtutorial8743 sounds good! We can put that on the filming agenda. Great work on the video you posted too! Those pike/straddle ups are some of our favorite compression exercises.

@@PowerMonkeyFitness Same, I'm interested in the types and scheduling of stretching for gymnasts. Much love, and awesome video of Dave 🙌🏼💪🏼

[@envisionjustice]

Thank you for sharing the tips! I found them very helpful. Can you share how to train for the explosive pull up and which part of the body should be focused on / activated during the pull? Also when doing false grip on the bar, i found it very hard to do pull up, more specifically i felt a lot of pressure on the shoulders and elbow. Any advice on training the false grip and strengthening the shoulders, elbows and wrists?

[@PowerMonkeyFitness]

Hi! I would say that training for the explosive pull should start with understanding correct muscle activation for the pull. Start with Scap Pulls to help get lats engaged while maintaining good body positioning. Then move on to an explosive 1/2 pull (finishing at 90 at the elbow)...eventually building a higher and higher pull over time. Lat engagement prior to pulling from the extremity should be the goal (core to extremity) and no arching in the body position. Keeping the eye line forward throughout the pull will help maintain a more vertical pulling action. Yes, the false grip drill can be awkward at first. I would spent more time just working on building your forearm/false grip strength prior to applying it to the pull. We have a long list of videos in our database to help with wrist/shoulder strength and elbow conditioning. I would start there. Hope that helps.

Freakish 🔥 best tutorial ive seen

Thank you so much!

Whats up with that rig? The double bars- what’s that for?

[@일섭방]

Good nice!!!!

[@spagnot]

3:08 is the most impressive thing

[@orlandocarrillo7132]

2:34 is the most important part

[@PowerMonkeyFitness]

We can't argue with you on that :)

[@tenemax7849]

Even monkeys can learn from Durante!

[@jehushaphat]

I know the muscle up with the swing requires less strength, but it looks a lot prettier from a spectator's standpoint (especially one like me who doesn't know all the subtle differences between the two).

[@timtaylor9590]

the best way to learn something is to do it. what makes it hard is the strength /weight ratio for most ppl so just lower the weight with a band.

[@spencergsmith]

Progressions and drills can be extremely useful tools in learning the proper mechanics of a movement under minimal load or complexity. It isn’t always as simple as “the best way to learn something is to do it.”

[@timtaylor9590]

@@spencergsmith it is as simple, i created a scenario where by saying the best way to learn a muscle up is said method, if you decide to argue that you must provide a better method or keep quiet, so far youre losing because youve only shat out of your mouth. if the goal is to learn a muscle up, the fastest, best, easiest way is to reduce the resistance. that teaches mechanics, timing, strength, power, coordination, it teaches everything, learning progressions are mostly a waste of time, go look at some bs progression on some bs youtube video, its mostly ppl trying to get clicks. so tell me whats better or go cry somewhere else.
