Perfect, concise, straight to the point.

Love the tape suggestion. Makes complete sense

[@MarincaGheorghe]

Great mentions about the transition to top of the bar. Training for false grip definitely helps with this part.

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes its a great tool to have

[@LostInLeiden]

You make the best calisthenics tutorials on KZbin, thanks so much for another great edition! I'll be trying out these tips asap

Awesome thank you, let me know how you go

Detail and nicely explained. I will definitely try it out sir.

Did you just start the tutorial off the bat? Love it!

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes, I like to film my videos with no real plan apart from what I'm training that day

This is a fantastic video. I kept thinking, "Right I'd better go try this tip" and then you would drop another one! Thanks!

[@PaulTwyman]

Glad it was helpful!

[@DevinsCalisthenics]

Grip is huge, I just did a workout with some gloves (and false grip) and it was a game changer. The Russian dip is another thing I need to try, never saw the correlation between it and the muscle up transition. Great stuff!

[@PaulTwyman]

Great! Let me know how you go with the Russian Dip

[@MarkLidsterfitnessgeezer]

Mate, why didn’t I find this video 6 months ago. You’ve answered so many things I was stuck on. I can do one but it’s ugly and this will help me completey clean it up. Thank you buddy 😊

Great to hear, glad you found it useful

[@camnovak]

this was an incredible video thanks buddy

[@PaulTwyman]

Thank you !

[@davidrioux611]

Aware of false grip but did not consider closing the grip on the bar for a higher pull. Even though experiencing a higher pulling height practicing pulling pull ups in supination with hands naturally closer. I may have given more credit of a higher height due to supination. Thanks for the information. The observation makes sense now.

[@andreasmller7064]

Can you do a similar technical breakdown for the front lever pull ups?

[@libertadrespetoverdadequid720]

super tutorial and nice to see a hard worker without doping testo injections

[@PaulTwyman]

Thanks!! Glad you liked it!

[@108Existences]

False grip with hands tilted inward as well as a close grip look like game changing modifications for this. I can only do strict form when my palms rests over the bar or beam and I use my finger tips to grip as well.

[@supriabudiman2425]

Masyaa Allah Bro crazy to see and to know that your pulling and pushing power, skills, and tricks are soooo amazing at that age!! btw what you do in your 20-30s Bro? must be at simonster level or maybe higher btw I was good at pushing things hitting one arm handstand for few seconds and did some powermoves (airflares, flares, etc) I was a breakboy back in the day, I also follow simonster too back at our younger age (now Iam 36) now I revisiting my gymnastic and breaking skills but also try to build my pulling skills (5 L sit pullup from dead hand is ok for me now) and now Iam targeting to unlock some tricky skills like muscle up, etc but there is one problem I cannot find any good training pattern (not yet) as I go for my planche progression,, my pulling things are just like set aside then I have to rebuild it later after my muscles from pushing sessions (few days) are restored kinda slow progression hahaha also just found out some clicking at my wrist, shoulder (rotator), left crotch (caused by flare) my internal elbow also hurt when i try to rotate it to support the plance,, that seems that I also need to spare time for a muscle rehab (since here are still not so may PTs) also I know some names of crazy athletes especially gymnastic, calisthenics, street workout, and bboys from Australia.. seems that You guys have a great support system there compared to here in Indonesia hehe cheers

What is that red, tall height adjustable pull up / muscle up bar called. It looks cool and was thinking about buying it. Thanks

[@Yonzonjojo]

Hello mr paul thanks for such work, keeep up And Can u make a tutorial about clapping handstand pushups

[@PaulTwyman]

I've never tried Clapping HSPU, I prefer cleaner deep versions than dynamic.

[@Yonzonjojo]

@@PaulTwyman oh i seee anyway thanks for the tip🙏

[@lawsen3719]

I've adapted your ideas onto gymnastic rings that I hang from my pullup bar, I have that exact same yellow bar but it is still to difficult for me, so I have the rings set as high as the bar and I also have a stretching band hanging from the bar which I place under myself and I try to do that mini muscle up with my feet on the ground, it is a killer on my triceps but I think I can go from here to muscle up.

[@PaulTwyman]

Sounds good, this video shows some other ring progressions kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJelgamhj8Z_b5osi=aavPX04QUqiP27Kt

@@PaulTwyman thanks ill check it out

[@lanecallahan8532]

Can you link the bars you purchased?

[@dekavi]

Pretty accurately told things. But the one important thing. When you guys train, don't use the tapes and all the stuff. Train in a real situation, use the usual bar without any tapes, if you can it will be better to choose wider bar than normal, and you can even literally use some oil on it to make your training harder, cuz after that you will show better results. "If you going to fight in a rain, train for the fight in the storm".

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes you could definitely go the other direction and purposely make things harder!

[@fedorlubensky]

👍

[@paulmarshall9189]

Developing the pull allows you to minimize or even eliminate the transition. Then you have the option to decide to pull lower as a form progression, if you want to. Rotating grip forward (not actual false grip, but wrist flexion) shortens the lever arm between your elbow and the bar and also places your wrist in a more mechanically advantageous position for the transition. So again, start with an aggressive grip, then you can extend back toward a normal pullup grip as a form progression. If you're working on a normal-height pullup bar that you can just reach from the ground, stand on a box to allow more wrist flexion. Then progress the height of the box down, so you get a less and less aggressive grip. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWnCi5WudrFlqLc

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes definitely, I use this technique more for practicing faster Bar Muscle Ups (I need a slight kip). The box and slight swing forwards is a great way to teach it. For low bar like the yellow ones, Rings and Front Lever MU I prefer the False Grip version.

[@phootnote]

What kind of bar is this? What is it called?

[@PirateSloth]

For me the difference was a false grip, if you have strong false grip, than you are good to go for muscle up on rings or bars.

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes definitely, I'm the same lots of False Grip training on the Rings

[@PirateSloth]

Exactly! I was able to do 15 - 20 pull ups and around 25 bar dips and I was NOT able to do any muscle up on ring (but was able to do 3 - 4 none strict muscle ups on high bar.). But definitely after 1 - 2 month of proper false grip training everything changed. Now I am able to do 6 - 7 strict muscle ups on rings. Proving that what you have said realy works well.@@PaulTwyman

[@MarincaGheorghe]

It was mentioned "sports/physio tape" for wrapping the bars, is that so ? When I look for this these seem to be tapes for putting on the skin/arm..

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes thats the tape.

[@scchs67]

@@PaulTwyman Thanks for your great channel. The light, thin therapy type resistance bands are also recommended for added friction. You just wrap them like you would tape but, since there's no adhesive, you can remove it when you're done. Handy for use at public gyms, parks and playgrounds where you don't want to permanently alter the bar.

[@PaulTwyman]

@@scchs67 great idea! I’ll try that

[@scchs67]

@@PaulTwyman Yes, it sounds good. Also, just to thicken a bar, if desired. Mind you, I haven't tried it myself. But, speaking of that, what's your opinion on bar thickness for the strict muscle up? Is it easier on a thicker bar?

[@johnbyrne9855]

How tall are the bars?

[@FIMARx]

I never tried them on the bar. But I can get solid 7 slow reps on rings. How easy will it be for me to achieve on bar?

[@PaulTwyman]

You should be able to get it straight away. Might need to play with the grip slightly and how you position the body to go around the bar (often front lever MU is easier)

[@FIMARx]
