How To Do A Turkish Get-Up

The Turkish Get-Up is one of the BEST Full body exercises that you can do. Back in the day, people were tested not on how much they could squat and deadlift, but rather how much they could Turkish get-up. Unfortunately, most people get it wrong. Find the right way to do it here!

Joe Rogan is the type of guy that says something people dont know about. Then they do a search on youtube and video goes viral.

[@GavinCassens]

I will now take on my role as that "one" guy in the gym doing this

[@bogusdogus]

Joe Rogan didn't send me but I'm starting to wish he did. I thought a Turkish getup was shiny flared trousers, waistcoat and a Fez...

[@MyOver50]

Excellent description of how to do this. Very easy to follow & see exactly how your body's form is so important in doing this the correct way. Thank you 3 years later...

[@jesusaguayo6153]

Love it! This is definitely an exercise I've been wanting to learn how to do for quite some time now. And that was a superb explanation by Justin 👌🏻 I will for sure be incorporating this movement into my workouts

[@Bozwald]

great video fellas, especially when your boy at the end asked to do it in the tempo you would perform it at. very informative, thanks

[@oddrockinegg]

TGU's are my all time favorite exercise!!! Thank you for this perfect explanation, as there are so many different ways people like to talk about this exercise. It gets confusing out here in the fitness industry.

[@willkyl4797]

THANKS JOE

[@hisaddle]

Very well done, explained/shown so clearly really like the step by step.

[@WhiteNacho]

Joe Rogan & Pat McNamara sent me.

[@jarretthalwick3865]

Exactly lol. I had no idea what a Turkish get-up was. Now I do.

[@1HappyBob]

Very well demonstrated with excellent assists.

Nicely broken down and explained, thank you.

We are coached on Tuckish get-up's at Thomas DeVietro Strength & Conditioning, 32S.Morton Avenue,Morton,PA 19070. Its a great movment you can do almost any were, with or with out weights. Good Video thanks.

[@lyfao-werefunnyandweknowit9526]

[@cndngoose]

classic youtube warriors thinking these dudes skip leg day.. Sal pulls over 500 deadlift, 300+ squat, same with Adam, Justin has the most beautiful squat of anyone you've seen. Adam was an IFBB pro at one point. Also some of the most intelligent minds in fitness. But yeah, they skip leg day cause you can rep 225 lolol

[@whirving]

These guys are great, but their legs look proportionally skinny. But I've been a bike racer for about 20 years so I look like a tyrannosaurus: all legs, no arms. Still, such a good breakdown of this move.

[@daganperretti8617]

" ok you just totally touched my butt, anyway." also joe rogan sent me

[@dietrichvarez1720]

Doing some of these today. Thanks for the video 👍🇺🇸

[@aletheia]

Love the turkish get up. For me the hardest part is still coming back down, flexing the elbow and laying my back on the ground the safest way possible. I can see perfect 90 angle here and arm perpendicular to the floor. Will focus on this next day.

[@Turco949]

I remember seeing wrestlers do this back in the gym when I was a kid. The real seasoned and strong ones were using their training partners which I watched in awe but didn't quite understand at the time how amazing they were. As kids we were using monkey bars as a part of the training for building very strong upper body. You hang down with your arms facing your opponent as he does face you, then you move towards the opponents swinging from bar to bar till you come close enough to pull down your opponent by either using your legs to wrap around his legs or torso and pull him down so he drops. No kicking or any other strikes. Hard but fun game which also builds strong grip, shoulders, core strength, shoulders, back, etc.

[@albino_panda1363]

This was beautifully demonstrated.

[@rona.9995]

Personally I find it helpful to have the student hold a light weight, say a 5 lb dumbbell or their water bottle. You can tell them to keep the shoulder and elbow engaged and not to swing the weight hand around, but with a little resistance they can feel why that's important.

[@xtrachromyhomie9720]

The hardest part is getting from the elbow to the hand and vice versa to get down again, but nobody explains the muscle groups and posturing to use in this process.

[@justeatingchipsandwatching]

Yes yes Rogan sent me. Can anyone help me though. I see the pop up hip in this video but not in others. I've tried both ways. Not sure which is correct.

[@TO-hh1cd]

This movement is rife with injuries. All these gym bandwagon people think that the more “complex” a movement is, the more results you will get. Fuck that. You will have more injury guaranteed.

[@ArchinatorWC88]

Perform the exercise first and then break it down.

[@captaincaveman8080]

Is the gravity higher in turkey?

[@TheSidePocketKid]

Do you do sets of this? How many repetitions should you be aiming for

[@Nemo7The7Pirate7]

is that sharp exhale really helps anything? When i do shit you won't hear a thing, even if i wlll do cardio for hours, i won't make some pretentious noises to look cool or something.

[@Salamaleikum80]

What shoulder Muscles are getting worked here? Cause you have to push your shoulder out, that confuses me.

[@snook3032]

Ive been stuck in the first part for 3 years. I got my shoulder replaced and my neck fused in that time tho.

[@THEASSOFJBM]

Nice shoes man

[@roby14]

How many would you do for a daily workout?

Windshield wipe with the rear leg is a good tip when weight - bearing. My legs are skinny as f#ck too.

How many reps ? Times a week? No info other than do it this way unless i missed it

[@youngsoki]

in step 3 i cant manage to drive my heel into the ground, i feel like im only using my other foot to push off the ground. Anyone can help?

[@aaronwright5641]

These are deceptively difficult. Seriously, don't even use any weights the first time you try this. It's easy to lose control of that shoulder as you do the leg sweep.

[@mistermatsuda]

00:35 Are your arms supposed to be bigger than your calves?

The most impressive thing was how the dude rolled with the punches

How do you pack your shoulder?

[@stutterheadbrewingco1707]

Rogan did it again

[@garnetnard4284]

This is a good video but - and you can call me an internet troll - you should put more emphasis on how to “pack the shoulder”. I also recommend starting out with a shoe balanced on a closed fist to really focus on keeping your arm upright at all times.

What is the point of this crazy exercise?

Bro, seriously, stop skipping leg day!

[@djosserperrah9563]

You do understand athletic types usually dont have big calves, slow twitch people generally have bigger lesser functional muscles

[@shadowsayer1516]

So do you keep doing one side a bunch of times, then the other side? Or would you switch sides with every rep?

[@xxEvopiemanxx]

your left shoulder was unpacked the entire time... your gonna hurt yourself. Do yourself a favlor and watch enter the kettlebell with pavel tatsouline
