- I've always wanted to learn how to muscle up. Well, lockdown provided the perfect opportunity to finally put the work in and learn how!
I went from being able to do 0 to 5 muscle ups in 53 days

Thank you for all the love and support on this video! I've just released a follow up learning the muscle up on rings, check it out here th-cam.com/video/43kXgeiL5uY/w-d-xo.html
Hi Swithers - I wonder if I can ask for some advice? I have set myself the target of one muscle up. Im 83kg and ran half marathons before, so was staring from a LONG way off (I couldn't do a single pull up to start). From January, I have worked hard and can now do 10 strict form pull ups and I have similar progression in dips/push ups. I'm struggling with the transition part of the muscle up - how can I get past that? Cheers 🙂
@@MyMyMyAccount The transition is by far the hardest part to get down, you can see in that video that I'm not really doing it properly.
The thing that helped me the most though was doing the muscle ups with the bands. Not having to focus so much on the strength on those reps really helped me focus on the technique. Then just try and replicate that feeling without the bands. Hope this helps!
@@Swithers I'll be sure to buy myself some bands. Thanks for the advice 🙂 where did you find the outdoor pull up bar by the way?
@@MyMyMyAccount No worries :) The pull-up bar is from a company called Gravity Fitness, there's loads of its type though, just happened to be the one I chose. Pretty sure I googled 'outdoor pull up bar' or something like that to find it
Good luck!
@@Swithers Ah nice! I have Gravity Fitness floor and dip paralettes! Thanks for all the advice mate - keep healthy!
Swithers gets locked down, but he muscles up again 👍
Awesome! I’m pumped to see those strict muscle ups soon.
Cheers! Hard to train on a metal bar at the moment without my hands freezing off! I'll get there eventually though...
Awesome bro
Great content! You should have more subs for sure!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the vid :)
Inspiring!
Hey man,gotta say,I admire and appreciate your work🙏. Keep up the amazing work 👍. You will reach a million in no time😉. Mad love from India ❤️
Thank you so much! Got a new muscle up type video coming out soon, keep your eyes peeled ;)
@@Swithers I will😃😲😲
Nice work! I spent like a year learning the muscle up. When I learned it I went straight from doing 1 kipping muscle up to doing strict muscle ups but there was a huge period of time where I just couldn’t get past one kipping muscle up
Fair play. I'm hoping to learn the strict muscle up very soon too. Just gotta crack the handstand first
u got my subs man
nice video!
Nice going man. Keep up with it and you be doing 10. 💪. I'm trying to learn them on rings. I had to learn the false grip witch was uncomfortable at first. Now I got the fg I'm using bands to go through the motions. And doing ring dip and pull-ups to build more strength..👍
Thanks!
I got some rings for Christmas and they're awesome, got some vids coming out soon to do with them
Keep it up, you'll have your ring muscle up in no time 💪
@@Swithers.. It's a game changer when I first tryed using rings, I look like a fish coming out from the water. 😂 they are a great bit of kit. 👍 I look forward to seeing how you get on with them.
Loved this video. Totally entertaining.
Can you just confirm something. Your grip, I put my fingers and thumb over the bar. I can do one and occasionally 2 consecutively, but still really struggling. Do you have your fingers over the bar, and your thumb below?
I’ve always gone for the false grip! Ahhh
Yeah I put my fingers over and thumb under. I've done a lot more since this vid and improved my form and the thumb under has definitely been the easier grip for me for muscle ups
@@Swithers thank you. I’ll try that method for a while. Appreciate your response.
brilliant well done !!
Thank you! Hopefully have strict muscle ups coming soon now!
@@Swithers great man be should to have a look at my channel if you will to i have done a few videos on the muscle up that might help :)
Nice
The only good thing about COVID is that I see more people keeeping fit
Nice job bro
Thank you!
nicee

so come on wilfried bony score some goals for swansea, cool vid btw lol
Your muscle up progress was exactly like mine, some days it just doesn't happen
I did my first muscle up with 2 bands (red and black) the other day, got too excited and ended up straining my shoulder on my third attempt. Currently resting, hopefully back on track next week.
Good luck, you've got this!
Congratulations, it’s not easy even with the kipping. And one thing I agree with you is some days it’s hard to do one even up to this date I did many. One question: When you said 2 days rest, you meant you did nothing or you did some other exercise other than pulling? Thanks
In that particular case it was two days of doing nothing
Normally 'rest' days like that would include something low impact like stretching or yoga but those were two complete days of nothing
@@Swithers thank you
Hi, nice video! Where could I find PU bar like yours?
Thank you! The one I'm using is from a company called 'Gravity fitness'
However if you search something like 'outdoor pull up bar' you'll like find a lot of this style
@@Swithers thanks
I think now you can do clean ones
Fantastic! How far you could reach the bar when practicing explosive pull up?
Thanks!
On good days it's about lower chest/upper stomach but normally more mid-chest
You should look at the bar, is easier that way 👍
Going to be working towards strict muscle ups soon. I'll keep this in mind, thanks!
Do you record on your phone or camera
A bit of both actually! Mostly my phone now thoughas that's what I can connect a microphone to
@@Swithers I want to start a channel I have an s9
@Nathan Keighley thanks I will
I have one question: Do you think the band help you at all?
Bands definitely helped for this. It's an easy way to practice the movement without having to worry too much about the strength. Then you can gradually remove the bands until you can do it without them!
@@Swithers Thanks
He is Benedict Cumberbatch but he is in college
Please coaching me 😀
What bar is that? I also want to train muscle ups at home but not sure what bar to buy.
I got the gravity fitness bar. I just made sure to get one rated to hold over double my bodyweight in case I wanted to hang things from it
Do you have a wall you can drill into at home?
@@Swithers I'm planning on drilling it into the side of the house like you have done. For your training, did you buy a workout plan or did you make your own workouts?
@@Rh-tk1bu Drilling into the wall is the most stable you can get, just gets a bit chilly in winter!
Just made my own workouts for it, drop me a message on insta if you want and I can go over the workouts I did in more detail, link should be at the bottom of the description
Try perfect muscle up
i cant even do 5 pull ups in 50 days
but i started not doing even 1
Keep at it! It took me years to get to the point of being able to do 5 good pull ups. It all takes time
In my case about 90 seconds lmao
Bruh i learned in 1 day
Im 13 and can do this
Nice one!
🇮🇱❤️🇮🇱👍🏻👏🏼
I can do 7 kipping muscle ups in weeks
Muscle Up 53 days..
Nice..
At 63 , it takes longer..
I'm almost there..
Good luck!
Now muscle up stricto
That's the plan ;)
