Bar Muscle Ups and Ring Muscle Ups - basically the same movement, right? WRONG! Yes, there are major similarities, but there are also major differences. This is a common question I get so I just had to make a slow motion video to highlight the different techniques you need to use for each.
0:00 Intro
1:14 Pre-requisites
3:05 The transition (why it's not the same for both)
5:29 My favorite 3 cues for the transition
7:15 Stringing together reps of bar muscle ups and ring muscle ups (one big difference!)
9:58 Multiple reps - similarities
11:15 side by side slow motion comparison
11:35 FREE stuff!

[@charlesmitchell5841]

Great tips! Thanks

[@bradfordayers]

The description on the cycling the movements was great. I don't have RMU yet, but I can do BMU and stringing them together has been a challenge. The queue to drop straight down is great. I will definitely need to keep that in mind when I work on them again. Thanks.

[@NitzanPapir]

awesome video! thanks for the explanation! gonna try all those tips

[@hgranados100]

“ falling back on the rings, trust fall” best advice to get the next RMU rep. I’d love a comparison between thrusters and wall balls. Thanks

[@patrickcrawford1137]

Working on the strength prerequisites for both currently. Would like to see comparison on the difference in the needed kip for stringing T2B, PUs, and C2B. I see folks struggle with T2B but have PUs for days.

Excellent video, I have issues with multiple ring MU's, but I think I was using the bar MU fall back. will try you tip today

[@Tony-nn2pe]

Very good content 👌🏻

[@tonyminatta3270]

Nice video review of both movements! Makes a lot of sense with the differences you pointed out. I think a good video with similar analysis would be Strict HSPU and Kipping HSPU. I can do strict HSPU but haven't quite mastered the kipping HSPU. Thanks!

[@Ellie-nw5yk]

The "moving through" vs. "moving around" was a great way to describe that difference! I had about 5 unbroken BMUs but couldn't get 1 RMU for this exact reason. You put words to the feeling I noticed between the different movements, but now I have that verbal cue to remind me! It would be cool to see a comparison between a snatch and a clean; specifically focusing on the differences between the hip contact + shrug portion of the two lifts. Thanks so much, your videos are awesome!

[@samsungarthu]

Nice idea!!

[@AG-xo8vb]

The 6 4 6 is my warmup for my bmus. Thanks for the tip!

[@WODprep]

Perfect!

[@CallMeGarrek]

Thanks👊🏾

[@user-uf2cr1tv8m]

Thankes❤❤❤❤

[@michellefleming6711]

I'm going to try falling down on BMU instead of falling back. I fall back on both. I want to see a comparison of butterfly pull ups and butterfly chest to bars! :)

[@TheIronmantrev]

Such great value in seeing the side by side slow motion. Helps understand differences

[@mattlab1]

Push jerk vs push press 🙏

[@daltonbland2200]

Can u do a video on ghds???

[@kluk666]

Hey coach I think I'm doing something wrong with my grip as for the open 22.3 I totally ripped both my hands, just in the middle of palm. I cant train since sunday (the day I took the 22.3) because my hands are still not good What am I doing wrong? what can be done to prevent it from happening?

[@Xtriley90]

i can do 4 rmu and 0 bmu :)

[@jpmann5802]

Wtf was that kipping RMU ?

[@Olbensen]

Guess who’s got two thumbs and can do a strict BMU but can’t kip into a BMU… 👍😀👍
