I’m 57. Been doing pull ups all my life. Never knew about muscle ups !!! Now I will try to do one. I did 60 pull ups today. 5 at a time

[@kreat_ivan]

Definitely the best muscle up tutorial out there

[@ciepularys]

This is one great, but for beginners, Chris Heria's magic button technique is easier - it involves some help from the legs (which is quite a lot but its far from crossfit-like dipping ;D)

[@l2st164]

Thenx better

[@ethan2163]

Pilous has a better one. It shows the types of muscle ups, the requirements, progressions, purposes, pros and cons and how to train above 10 muscle ups.

[@M0ebius]

Lost me at 12 pull ups. Save for later and back to the grind.

[@Shredder-ug1fu]

My friend cant Reach 12, but can do muscle up. Its just a example

[@henkdedikkesteen]

Triceps/shoulder strength is also a big part of it. If you can do a lot of straight bar/ring dips the movement should be easy even if you can't get 12 pull-ups

[@Repyseek521]

Don’t worry, i cannot get over 10 pullups, but i can handle 2 muscle ups. If your explosiveness and strength is on point, there’s no need to reach 12 pullups.

[@fritzdislerd.4261]

I can do 20 straight pullups but no muscle ups, i lack of technique ill try today with the information of this video

[@eleggs]

There might be people with less pullups that do muscle ups and there are people with more pullups who can't do it. For most people this is a good number to start with.

[@manusharma75]

Hey guys I am writing to thank you for putting up this video. I am 43 year old and was struggling to get a muscle up going. I tried many things but two tips in your video, I believe helped me get my first proper muscle up. The first was the tip on the false grip and the second was to use bands to train the muscles. I started with a fat band and then kept progressing till I needed no band. I cannot thank you guys enough. God Bless you!

[@FITDEVMO]

When I first learn to muscle up, I struggle with the problems too. These years I suffered from shoulder injury (bicep tendentious) and when I feel painful when I try to do muscle up...

[@dipsuitkhatri3077]

No shit I try to do everytime and every time I break my hand joints😭😭.

[@allnaturalflow470]

Watching this after a day of doing a couple muscles with improper form resulting in internal elbow pain causing me to not workout today... I feel like this video put a lot into perspective for me, thank you. Everyone reading this comment please send my elbow healing energy :)

[@mortalsin2600]

I just want to say after struggling with bar muscle up for about a week, I watched this video yesterday and did my first bar muscle up today! The part where he explains the swinging and timing pulling up with the fall back momentum was the difference maker. Thank you for this concise and yet detailed tutorial.

[@samueldselas4767]

Just got my first muscle up, after watching this! What a great video, thanks guys!

Alex's cameo on trainingpal's video earlier really caught me off guard. Glad to see you guys staying humble even though you're already one of the biggest calisthenics channels on KZbin. That being said, I hope Dave can make an appearance in one of your videos in the future too. :)

[@dkillahne]

I just want to say thank you for this video. I was one of the guys who could do a few muscle ups with sloppy form. after watching this video I went to train muscle ups and was very happy with how easily I was able to clean up my form and how it seemed to take less effort when applying the techniques and timing you described. can't thank you enough for this outstanding tutorial!

Thumbs up who thinks muscle ups are the best calisthenics exercise! Another sick video guys!

[@ratedyellow3]

JustCalisthenics muscle up to show whose the boss in the gym lol

[@Hexanitrobenzene]

They are not the best because they are not in the league of the hardest. However, a fast clean muscle up is the exercise which separates a novice from an andvanced calisthenist. Slow muscle up is even harder.

[@rafaellopezdelvalle4530]

Nice video! Excelent explanation and performance. Agree in everything, bro... but what you said about negative ones. They are not there to build explosive strenght, their job is to work the shoulder mobility for my overbulked students! The closer you can confortably get to the bar during muscle up transition the cheaper the movement is... if I go slow-mo I scratch my chest! Great, great job yours any way! Congratulations

[@ciepularys]

Considering all these tips, the most important is the TECHNIQUE and TIMING, try with resistance bands to get a hold on the movement and when to pull and when lean over the bar. After your first musleup done, you will make a few of them in a row within 2 weeks.

[@anambivalentenemy]

At last a video for the explosive muscle up, and a quality one as any other, thanks guys! Question: The low reps many sets long rest scheme sure is great for learning the move, I’ve been doing it and see great progress. However each training session is elongated because of the scheme so I wonder what’s the most time efficient way to go if I want to train for the muscle up AND maintain strength in other areas like pushing strength, core, legs,...?
