Most Muscle Ups in 59 Mins! 59 Years.

The Muscle-Up is the calisthenics skill, that every body weight fitness enthusiast or athlete wants to get. This video is a follow-up to the video I made three years ago, when I was aged 55, and got my first Muscle-Up. That video has now been viewed over 500,000 times on KZbin. I then made a Muscle Up Tutorial video which had now had 1.4 million views. So this video is just to show, that it’s not all about strength. Technique plays a major part, and that’s why I can manage 120 muscle ups, at the age of 59, in just under an hour.
I will reply to every comment, so please let me know how you get on and if you find this video useful. I have tried to keep it simple.

For 59 years of age, this is incredible. I am 39 and still struggeling to do even 1.

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Keep going.. it takes a lot of hours and hours of training.

[@neilcolligan9025]

Really inspired by this! I am new to the techniques and following the instructions. I am struggling with pain in the back of my shoulders. Is this a normal adaptation process?

[@undefeats]

Hi Anthony I watched the video of you doing your first muscle up and have now come to this video and it’s amazing to see the progress you’ve made. I’m 39 and a gym regular and have been spending the last week trying to do my first muscle up. Was feeling disheartened as I go to the gym daily. Watching your videos has been an inspiration and a lesson in patience, to not expect to be able to magically do it straight away. Thanks for showing what can be done with dedication and perseverance 🙌🏾

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Hey thanks for watching my videos.. pleased you found something useful there. You clearly have the strength, but I suspect you just need to learn the correct technique. Keep going.

[@thesoundsession]

Very good balanced movements now vs early days. Good stuff mate

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Thank you, certainly have made some progress. Thanks so much for your support.

[@hakim93270]

Amazing. You get in trouble to do only one and now you can do that. Congratulations !

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Thanks so much, consistency paid off.

[@oldguy2204]

This video encourages me to work on my muscle up. Great strength Anthony.

[@funwithcalisthenics]

I’m pleased for you..

[@ChrisShawarma]

Antony is on his own level y'all, much respect my friend 🫡👍🏽💯

[@funwithcalisthenics]

He thanks Chris, appreciate that, hope life is good with you.

[@juanmanuel201]

Your truly an inspiration, in nearing my 40s and just started trying to achive my first 1. Ive worked out for years, but a muscle up is quite challenging, at last for now. Great video brother, enjoyed listening to you also.

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Thank you so much for you great comment. I’ll keep posting, you keep training.

[@makan1568]

Antony you are an inspiration. So much positivity and great attitude. I’m going to the gym after this video 😁 Btw. I’m gonna watch again your old videos where you were learning muscle up.

[@funwithcalisthenics]

It all starts with a pull-ups… good strong explosive ones.

[@agostinopeta2295]

This is incredible🤗

[@funwithcalisthenics]

That’s good to hear.

[@Ali-zv1yk]

WOW!!!! GOOD DAMN JOB, THIS IS SO INSPIRING!!! I am almost 40 and can't do 1 pull-up like I use to when i was younger. I love this channel.

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Hey thanks so much for leaving such a great message. So pleased to love the channel!

[@strongmindsYerro305]

That's a lot of muscle ups great training respect 🔥💪👍

[@funwithcalisthenics]

I was knackered after that!

[@Joemccxc]

Antony, you’re getting stronger with age. Not often we can say that, sadly. But you’re an inspiration, I hope I’m like you at 59.

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Thanks for your support.

[@simonfletcher1945]

Great 💯 idea

[@funwithcalisthenics]

It’s tough but a great challenge.

[@laurentlamotte2739]

Hello Antony c’est vraiment une belle performance 👍

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Thank you so much.

[@baligo3760]

Another great achievement, congratz! I think you have to rename your channel in something as " Endurance calisthenics " ;)

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Haha, my channel is evolving, so that maybe a good idea!

[@lordthorpe2642]

Do you do any push ups these days? "Couch to 5 Muscle Ups" is a great title for a video!

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Yes, but not as often as I do pull-ups. If the weather is bad, and I can’t train outside, then I’ll revert to push-ups.

[@sergioplet]

This man proof that age is just number. Good job man 👏💪

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Certainly is in my mind.

[@iFlowWithTheGo]

I don't expect a reply, so please don't feel the need. I just wanted to say thank you for inspiring me as an older man to purchase a bar, bands, and rings to start the muscle up journey. It's going well.

[@funwithcalisthenics]

That’s so good to hear. Thank you so much for sharing that. It means so much to me. I’m just doing my thing and keeping fit, and enjoy making videos. Then hearing about your experience is just awesome. Excited for you. Enjoy the journey, and all the little wins along the way.. 🎉..

[@syedali1576]

Awesome!! How many pull ups could you do when you started muscle ups? Currently I can do 3 x 10 and not sure if now is too soon. Or do I wait till I can do 15 reps?

[@funwithcalisthenics]

I did my first muscle up when I could do 14 pull-ups. I now know that it’s more about technique, than power, so go for it..

[@John-bc9ml]

Well done. Do u follow a strict diet or monitor protein intake or any of that ?

[@funwithcalisthenics]

I take a protein shake after a workout. That’s it really. Just try to eat sensibly.

[@John-bc9ml]

@@funwithcalisthenics excellent work. I just watched your other vid where u reduced your body fat %. Fantastic.

[@funwithcalisthenics]

Thank you
