Shut Up & Learn: Slow Muscle Up 18 days progression - Most efficient way (Equipment needed)

[@jakemccoy]

It's all about slow negatives for us poor folk with only basic equipment.

[@michailtavonius3360]

One hint: When you reach the apex of your pullup motion on the bar, rotate your wrists from overhang grip (aka false grip) into a dip position, so that now the palms are supporting your body on top of the bar. Imagine you are turning the throttle of a motorcycle. Not rotating the wrists was the reason you were forced to rest your forearms and chest on top of the bar, which is not a good starting point for a press-up motion. And maybe a slightly wider grip is advised. Otherwise, impressively fast progress.

bro you are a beast. you just boosted my confidence again. i will do it :D

[@dudleydooright]

Never seen the half-weight harness but I really want one!! I sure wish there was a calisthenics gym near me. That would be amazing for learning the planche.

[@TheMovementAthlete]

Anything is possible if you work hard at it! 🙌 you’ve made a lot of progress brother. Keep it up 🔥🔥🔥

[@sashapolyakov3200]

Hard work pays off💪

[@MisterPilot]

Wow! This video must have more views! Thx man

[@alexdenk1130]

Great video! Thanks! What is this harness called? Where can i get it? Never seen that before! Cheers from Austria

[@sewciomanko]

so impresive a to learn slow musle up but its so hard keep going

[@emaij]

I need that contraption!

[@christopherjasonjacksontm]

so honest the beginning was my favorite because it reminded me of THE beginning so sacred dude for real

[@cocatezz]

So inspiring. I would like to start this but dont have the contraption :D was it 18 days i na row or every other day/every 2-3 days?

[@hansonchoi9674]

nice work, pretty useful😍😘🤩

[@LeeSheper]

What is the name of that machine?

[@shutupnlearn]

gymnastics forza, but there are other cheaper options

[@icebmwpower]

@@shutupnlearn*great info!* Thank you!

[@justinw0419]

can anyone tell me the principle of the gymnastics forza, the pulley system that the pulling force has to be the same amount to lift the load up, means if the load is 70kg, each pulling force has to be 35kg, then how come it's easier than/lighter than normal ring muscle up?

[@shutupnlearn]

actual weight = the weight of the entire system /2. E.g. Me weighted 70kg, if no weight attached, Actual weight = 70/2, 35kg If I attach 10 kg, Actual weight = (70+10)/2 = 40 kg

[@jakemccoy]

Your butt is taking half the load via that seat. So the weight on your arms is cut in half.

[@johnmar1622]

Congratulations, bro, bang on, thanks for your trials, you had the same machine as mine, its called dream machine- i made it myself, cost me apprx $80, i use it for iron cross training, you use it for muscle up. Now i tried slow muscle up

[@shutupnlearn]

can u teach me how to make that😂

[@johnmar1622]

same principle as your muscle up-adding weight, the only difference is you need a straight elbow-locked out not a slight bend while doing cross 90 degree press. @@shutupnlearn

[@MRogalsky20]

What is about your elbows when you learned it?

[@shutupnlearn]

@@MRogalsky20 what do u mean by that?

[@mpwilderman]

Would you have made more progress with a couple days off?

[@shutupnlearn]

maybe

[@gysghost5126]

Is it safe to continue training with rips ?

[@shutupnlearn]

@@gysghost5126 yes

[@ashyxt]

would it be more efficient to not chicken wing into the dip?

[@shutupnlearn]

I think so, but not strong enough tho..

[@johnmar1622]

Kev, just a quick update, i am doing 20kg now false grip muscle up using pulling system, its 3 weeks now, so far no muscle up yet. I weight 80kg, i think i need to do close to 40kg before muscle up..what you reckon?

[@shutupnlearn]

The machine takes off half of the system weight. (80+20)/2 = 50 kg. u are pulling around 50kgs, (80+40)/2 =60kg, u are pulling with 60kgs, So, slowly attach more weights

[@johnmar1622]

thanks,,,,let me see how much more i can add. @@shutupnlearn

[@johnmar1622]

this week i did 3 reps of 25kg, but still no slow muscle up yet. next week i will do 30kg(80+30)/2.

[@shutupnlearn]

@johnmar1622 slowly work your way up to 50 kg, u shd get ur slow muscle up, but take it slow, the goal is not to get any injuries 💪

[@johnmar1622]

thanks brother i will update to see what added weight is the break point.....@@shutupnlearn

[@liquidgoldk]

need this machine, where is this gym?

[@shutupnlearn]

Toronto, ultimate calisthenics

[@liquidgoldk]

@@shutupnlearn thanks, thought ur in hk

[@shutupnlearn]

moved to Toronto last yr

[@renech123]

Where can I buy those slow muscle up rings?

[@shutupnlearn]

u mean the whole machine？

[@jakemccoy]

I did a search and found something called "G-Force RING DREAM MACHINE".

[@Willpowered-dude]

tha's not a slow muscle up tho, you just removed the momentum. To truly claim that you've learned slow muscle up, you have to master the transition to the point when you can pause, change speed, direction in the middle of the transition, not just complete it without momentum. Don't get me wrong, you still got amazing results, keep it up!

[@pawegeboys3981]

how much you trained per day

[@shutupnlearn]

Around 30mins, 5 to 8 rounds in total, max reps rest as much as possible in between

[@greigite5191]

i got my first slow muscle without using fingers, i find its easier since youre higher up

[@shutupnlearn]

that's good, doing it without finger is even better

[@AliasProXxL]

I train 3 months

[@minimokeash]

Hey Calvin, here's the challenge, i'll give you a thousand bucks if you can do 1000 pull ups in a day
