- When I started calisthenics, the muscle up seemed like it was so far away. I wanted it so badly and tried for months without success. It all changed when I tried this technique out!

I literally watched this video whilst walking to the park. Then did a muscle up within 5 mins. Thanks 😊
Get it!
Could you do it before? I can do 30 clean pull ups and I can do explosive pull ups rly well but struggle with muscle ups even with resistance bands do you think if I try this out I'll get me first muscle up?
@@KnowledgeableServant I had done some when I was at university, about 10 years ago.
I had tried it in a gym a few times recently, with no success. But then I found this video..
The concept of getting your hips to the bar instead of pulling yourself up was a game changer.
@@KnowledgeableServant I've also done ring muscle ups since from different video!

This was the single best tip for me to finally get my first bar muscle up...I am a strict pull-up guy and I could not overcome my tendency to pull vertical... This tip is definitely the key...I practiced a few of the pull down movements you showed, and nailed my first muscle up in my first try...Thank you!
Because of you, today I did my first muscle up! Thank you!!! 😊
I was trying to do muscle up for about 3 months now Ive been told I need to get more muscles and exercise more but after seeing this video the ''like slaming the trunk of car'' thing helped me do 3 muscles ups in a row for the first time. Thank you very much for the technique.
Heck yah! Sooo happy I could help. You’ll never forget your first one… or THREE for that matter. Thanks for letting me know. Congratulations. 👊👊👊
@@SimnettnutritionI Will try it tomtow great video , also do you take creatine u are in amazing shape
@@FlyLopez1991 update man
@@bxrironbeats8874 I tried in the summer I almost had it , I will try again this summer and for sure I will do it , did u do muscle up
@@FlyLopez1991 okay great hope you'll do it. Me i Can do it but it's when it want so i have to practice more
I have been trying to do a band assisted muscle up for over two years, after seeing this I have achieved it at last.....after 2 weeks. Thank you!
Nice! I bet you felt on top of the world.
I have been working on all the usual prep work for a muscle-up (pull-ups, chest-to-bar pull-ups, dips, etc.) for the past 10 months. And still I could barely do one cranky muscle-up. After practicing the exercise shown in this video for just 2 days, I have done 3 muscle-ups in a row! Thank you so much!
you only trained strength and not explosiveness? what did you think would happen??
Best video on muscle up, keep it up
You got an instant subscription based on just this video alone. Such a simple concept yet no one explains it so succinctly (or at all). Appreciated.
You and Jon Venus gonna force me to start calisthenics 😂🙌🏼
After 7 years in the gym doing bodybuilding and competing, i wanted something more and started calisthenic training at the parc and it is so nice to just...let yourself go breathing fresh air ^^
Dramis Kcor Thinking about doing the same. Years of bodybuilding gets old. Just gotta find me a park with a set of bars. At least my gym has some tools to train calisthenics

I’m currently in a competition with a friend seeing who’ll do the first complete muscle up, with this I think there is no hope for him! Thanks for taking the time to create this easy to follow video! All the best for yours and your channels growth 😊
Thanks brother!
Who did it first?
@@bunnyman6321 yeah lmao
@@ZannokP ?
@@bunnyman6321 none lol
Among the many muscle up instructional videos, you are the first youtuber to mention this concept.
It seems very helpful. I will try it!
You're right, your tip is hardly ever stated, and it might be the key to actually accomplishing a muscle up when all else has failed. I'll try it later today, even in the 110 heat here in Las Vegas. Of course it doesn't help that I'm 77 years old and 15 lbs overweight, even though I used to be able to do hand stands on parallel bars in my 20s. I've been a moderate pull up and push up and weightlifting guy all my life, so while I'm not muscle bound, I have some muscle to work with. I'll let you know if your technique worked for me.
really 77? impressive..i am past the 1/2 century mark trying to do it!
@@BURPEEyogauncle Haha I hope you got it!
How’d you go?
Would love to hear an update
I was gonna say 'Don't hurt yourself'
but looks like I was too late. 😬
Tried working up my way towards muscle ups for around a 3/4 year. With your tip I finally did it now 🥰
I've found that the key to muscle ups is that once you are in full extension at the bottom, hinge at the waist - and as you create that upward momentum - DRIVE YOUR KNEES up toward your chest as you come out of extension. Once I discovered that knee drive, I went from being unable to do a single muscle up to being able to do many in a row. I could do upwards of 30 standard pull ups, but I couldn't do a single muscle up until I figured that out. It really has less to do with lat strength and more to do with an efficient kinetic chain.
In any case, thanks for another great video!
update? can you now do a standing muscle up? (no momentum, no using knees.)
Yeah, the key when doing kipping muscle up is you kick to get backward not to get upward
What's the point in doing a muscle up like that? Might as well do a starting jump at that point.
Thought the secret was hyphy mud
Haha I'm sure it helps.
🤣🤣🤣

yea buddy! ^,^
The best tip I got is it should feel like a lat sweep, that tip changed my life
Definitely the best muscle up tutorial as of at today 👌🏼
I checked almost all how to muscle up videos. You are definitely the first one mentioning this technique! Will try it next gym session, thanks!
I don't usually leave comments, but I'm so happy with results, and this video had exactly the right advice. Before watching, I couldn't do a muscle up. I watched the video, and tried the exercise at 3:00 minutes (to get a feel for which muscles should be doing the work). Afterwards, I did a muscle up on my first try! the "slamming the trunk lid" analogy is spot on. Great advice here, thanks!
You look very happy to share your understanding of a key reason behind the stumble block. Thank you!
That's actually the way I got my first muscle up, and I also learned it by watching that same kali muscle's video, good job sharing this info :)
Hey man , I think I saw this technique in one of the Thenx videos . I think Chris called them L - sit Pull Back which is one of the phases of the muscle up of his teaching method.Anyways good video , thanks for the info.
Aras Küçükyalçın yep, Chris Heria did a muscle up progression with a guest to explain those motions and explosive technics
I remember chris heria saying you wont find this any other place lol
@@RAXLAX HAHAHA thats Chris for u right there
@@kenjjo12 Bro Chris has same technique explained in 4 year old video. This vid is 2 years old. Go and figure
@@scythe2051 it's not the same. chris explains you have to be able to do other many excercises, including ab excercises. this guy says the only key is the excercise he explains
Good tip! Combined w negative muscle-ups probably the best tip yet.
Excellent explanation. Especially appreciated how you diagnosed how most people go about it incorrectly
i struggled around 6 moths now, to pull both arms over the bar at same time, now i finally got it, cus of your little tip. thx so much 😊
Shout out to every one of those who struggled, didn't give up for significant time but eventually succeeded... kudos to all of you & kudos to Derek
Right back at you bro! It is not an easy movement, it takes lots of dedication. 👊👊👊
Bro thank you so much ! No fitness video ever helped me like yours did now, i was finally able to muscle up even tho the kip was a bit exaggerated!!
I love the fact that every single video of how to make your first muscle up is from ripped guys with enormous backs and abs and biceps and so on.
The only way I get a muscle up is when I kick my knees up so high they almost touch the bar lol. Pure momentum ;) I'll work on your technique, thanks.
still fruitarian?
Vegetable Police Kent could do 100 muscle ups. You need more lard
Me too, I gotta kip and some days I can do them, sometimes I can't.
Hi there. I guess what you are describing is called a bar kip, which i can´t do anyways. That one is harder for me to figure out, even though it´s easier.
Vegetable Police hey! i know U!!
Watched a load of muscle up videos this morning and this was by far the most helpful. Thanks!
Right, that's where training for the front lever and for the muscle up really tie into one another. Great work, keep grinding! Cheers!
this is really the ultimate tip i practiced the exercice and got my first clean muscle ever on the first training session thanks bro keep going
Training my front lever helped me with getting a muscle up
This is the only video that truly unlocked it for me. I started cracking off several in a row because I had plenty of strength but just didn't understand the movement. THANKS!
This video will have many views because this is the best method. I was never able to do a muscle up no matter how hard i tried (or so i thought because i was using the wrong technique) Thanks to you i was able to finally do it for the first time.
gratz man! i saw someone else do one today and it was awesome, after so much struggle
Watched ur video at the park and got it after 2 minutes, legend. Subscribed and liked
Thank u very much for this tip!!! Nailed my first muscle up after 3 trainings👌
Honestly.... The first dude ever with that advice... Really thanks
How the helll some athletes can do very slow muscle up. 💪 must be insane.
Its insane, u need to get good wrist strength for false grip, but no kipping at all explosive muscle up is slightly harder, tho if we talk without false grip then its even harder, always a room to improve!
The reason why it’s so hard and so effective is hypertrophic stretching: you’re moving in the toughest part of the progression, and you stimulate your lats at their max level of stretch. Great video thanks!
That's exactly how I got it! Great way of explaining it.
It worked the first time 15 minutes after watching this !
Thanks a lot !!!
I was doing this for reps before and thought I was wasting my time but I knew my body was totally beat afterwards. This move is hard. Thanks for the tip! I'll keep doing these.
The 'closing trunk' example was golden! Also, showing how that visually looks while on the bar. I believe that info above was the missing link. I now have a foundation to build.
Yup. Seen plenty of people recommend this. Many in the Calisthenics community and some of the strength training community suggest a lat pulldown type of movement. Honestly though, what many don’t suggest is using resistance bands and activating your core. I was able to complete my first muscle up after using a green resistance band for assistance. This gave me that extra burst of momentum to propel myself above the bar so that I could focus more on the transition aspect of the exercise which in my opinion is the most difficult part of the exercise. It’s all about the technique and using resistance bands help ingrain that transitional movement into your muscle memory.
With my luck I'd shoot through the ceiling.
@@buak809 Better shoot through the ceiling than not get above the bar 🤷🏻♂️
Watched so many videos and couldn't get it for months. Watched this on Friday evening before taking the weekend off to rest, Monday morning 8am at the gym, first muscle ups achieved, 5 in a row +5 dips on the 5th. Excellent information and it worked, slight swing forward and then slam that car bonnet just as your swinging back 🔥
Can you make a video for a beginner calisthenic workout?
Yes! I'm trying to incorporate more calisthenics, but not sure how to start. Maybe a full week of workouts? Like beginner push/pull/legs vids.
+1
+3
Or how to add a little calisthenics into a more typical resistance training routine.
just start with the basics :D then u get enough strength to do more and different movements - in case he doesnt want to make a video on how to basics, watch thenx - all i can do now i learned from chris heria from thenx
#1 Well deserved, very important tip👍🏼bless🙂
bro totally love u ... love the info u tell us.. am 14 yrs old with a bit of strength interested in calisthenics .. can u pls make a beginners guide with all the things to do and not do including sets and reps and why exactly those numbers?.. thanks :)
Yep, definitely you're the first to show this technique.Thank you very much man.
Hey! I saw a video of a man doing a muscle up with one hand, maybe that's a good challenge for you!!!
Sure, hold my smoothie first... oh wait.
Magnus Mitdbo is a animal
Fronde yuppp hisbvlog is awesome. There is an episode about one arm pullup training now
Lars David Klingberg Chris heria from thenx, clean 1 arm muscle ups
Where is the link?
Thanks brother.. this definitely looks like the missing link most people fail to point out.
Good video.
Muscle-up is the mysterious, wonderful and uncatchable woman that we are all trying to reach thinking it is impossible... since we get it !
And when we got it and have trained some weeks to do it better, then it seems so easy...
For me, the secret is just the way we have to "open the shoulders" when we have finished to go frontward, just before starting the pull-up when going backward. Then we just have to help the pull-up by using the momentum with the knees (or straight legs when the movement is more mastered).
The strength in doing x pull-ups or x dips is not the "key" as so much tutorial seem to say it.
I would say muscle-up is a matter of : 80% technique - and just 20% strength.
You should have a channel! Haha, great explanation.
Simnett Nutrition if you click on my profile there is a video of me doing some muscle ups.
Thanks... BTH you can see me performing some muscle-ups on this video available on my "channel" : th-cam.com/video/YnP7LF5_7N0/w-d-xo.html
polycock, i would say you need the strength to be able to start working the technique. for me it's 50/50.
One are muscle up is hiv positive woman, dude👍
Hit my first ever muscleup today thanks to this guide! Keep it up man, gr8 work!❤
Looks amazing..but difficult :-/
You are the first I’ve seen with this technique. I will add it to my training towards my first muscle up, thanks
I wish rich piana did muscleups instead of drugging up himself
Amazing tip
I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ” (Philippians 1:6).This goes for everyone do you guys know about Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior

@@4c6f can I ask you why you don’t believe in God
@@icy1806 Ive read bible too many times to know its full of shit.
@@4c6fyou have certainly shown that you are. I’m not so sure about the Bible
@@daveleeander Read the bible then. Christians constanly bring up their religion everywhere but nobody actually reads the bible.
Thanks! I've seen a dozen of TH-cam videos and strength tutorials on how to do the muscle up and what you're missing on being able to do a muscle up. It all comes down to doing all kinds of extra strength exercises, which I thought "that can't be the thing that's missing". I can pull-ups no problem. The same goes for my dips. They're both super easy to me. But I just couldn't get that transition right. I'll be training that "slam the trunk" exercise, from now on! Thanks, again! 🥳🥳
When I first learned I did it by doing it the explosive pull up style, it I was only able to do two.
But this will help me Teach my friend because he's trying to learn and I'm a bad teacher.
WOW! Thank you for bringing me the 'How To" version of "MUSCLE UP FOR DUMMIES" ! I needed it. Much obliged.
First time seeing this tip. This is Definitely the missing link between Weighted pull-ups and Muscle-ups Thanks for sharing
I just got my first muscle up with a kip because I need to understand the motion better before I will be able to do it at my bodyweight but I'm very glad that motion you showed to train the muscle up motion is what ive been doing kind of intuitively and Im glad it's actually useful
What are your thoughts on using an L-sit pull back to help with muscle ups? That's the way Chris Heria from ThenX teaches a muscle up. Looking at your form, you do seem to go into a bit of an L-sit pull back. Chris Heria seems to exaggerate the movement alot more.
This is exactly what he does, actually.
heria is telling people how to do it with momentum basically for begginers.he otherwise does them correctly
Nobody else has ever suggested anything like what you said best tip I ever heard
Iam 1.92m long and my weight is 92kg and I can do about 15-20 pull ups but I can't do muscle up help !!!
Chriss Smith If you can do that many pullups all you need to do you is to practice explosive pull ups.So,do a very fast (explosive)pull ups and bring the bar as close to the chest ass possible.
Wow good work! Work on straight bar dips as well.
I do 17 to 20 pullups but can do up to 10 muscle ups. There is no straight corellation between both.
Try to pull up straightly to the stomach level, not to the chest, also use your knees for momentum. Sorry for my bad English.
Алексей Кастевич both numbers are really good, man. Congrats on the hard work!
Lander Hendrickx thank you very much but I just wanted to show that it is not nessesary to do lots of pullups to learn a muscle up.
Thank you. I will work on it. 70 year old man here trying to do a muscle up.
You can do it!
this is how i learned to do muscle ups too. a crossfit friend taught me this technique and i thought it was common knowledge, but apparently it doesn't even have a name(or i could not find it), and it's not a conventional way how gymnasts train muscle ups.
the only difference in how i learned is that i tried to get as high up during each swing as I could and I only started to try to transition into a pull once I comfortably got my arms about horizontal.
I'm about to start practicing those techniques. I need to get that muscle up by the end of this month. Thank you.
At first I thought: "oh, a bit more clickbait". Then I watched it and my opinion completely changed, amazing tip. Thank you very much!
Thanks to this video I got my first muscle up 👍
I've heard of this technique before but this is the best explanation of it
Nice! I hope it helps.
this is one of the cleanest muscleup ı've ever seen.. this is pushing and not swinging
Good idea and observation that you noticed on Kali Muscle's form/technique. Kali does do it like that all the time.
This is a really great breakdown of technique. Thank you for this video
You’re welcome! You’ve got this. Also think about getting elbows out in front of the rather than out to the side like regular pull-ups.
Ahhhhhh. How am I just seeing this now. Im gonna try it tomorrow... Thanks.
My brain tells me that I can do this for a walk in the park. Trying tomorrow. Wish me luck boys
Slamming a car boot was a great analogy. Watched so many videos describing the technique but couldnt quite put it together in my head until I heard that. Practicing this tonight 👍
I do CrossFit and am practicing to do my first muscle up. If you are doing it using a kipping motion i.e. not static, doing a lever arch where you keep your arms straight is the way they teach us at my box. This means that you are using less arm strength and exploiting the momentum from the kip swing to bring yourself up. This is probably why the pull ups and tricep dips didn't help much. I'm still working on my first one, but feel i now have the knowledge to get it done! Thanks for the vid!
A similar tip I saw is a slight swing, and make sure you head goes past the bar, then do the slam down action and hollow right as you start swinging back.
You and barstarz are the only ones I've seen clarify this! (there may be others but I have not watched them)
No calisthenics experience, just weight lifting but I used to do parkour all my childhood. Today I attempted a muscle up after watching this video and I succeeded. First few tries were really tough but now I get it every try.
"Slammin´ the trunk of a car" really gave me a good feel for the movement and the rest was awesome too. Thanks.
Bro, this is gold
Thanks for the tip! I realize this is an ambitious goal, but I like to swing for the fence👍 Long way to go.
I learned it by accidentally, when I almost gave up. The issue was pulling yourself towards the bar when still horizontal. I do not think many people have strength to pull themselves OVER the bar. But most are able to train to at least reach the upper/lower chest with the bar during the pull-up. If so, then muscle-up is only a matter of technique. When in the highest point, jerk fast towards the bar, and KEEP BODY HOLLOW, this is really important. WIthout this, the momentum will not throw you over the bar into the dip position.
To train this, do on a lower pull-up bar, where you can jump into the movement from the ground, and use the resistance bands.
this has got to be helpful thanks bro i will get my muscle ups going with this movement omg hype
Funny to see the "wrong way" to do it because a few years ago I did the struggle up (to muscle up) and I actually gave myself an umbilical hernia. Had surgery to repair in it and a few month later it came out again, second surgery done (with a mesh the second time) and now a year or so later it's holding well. I will never again do a "struggle up" and am going to try these techniques ASAP. Thanks again Derek! You really do make it look EASY, but I know it's not. Keep up the good work!
Been trying this for years... Watched this... And now I'm doing muscle ups
bro is a genius!! ty
Hopefully it helped yah!
I accidentally discovered this 2 weeks ago when a 10 year old challenged me to one. I had never done one before but somehow went with straight arms and got into a muscle up with no fuss. I have been doing calisthenics for a whole year and have been working on every muscle including being able to do Front Lever holds for 10 seconds so I was wondering why I couldn't get the muscle up. You make it very clear why I got it and now I will practice this more. Thanks so much.
That was a good explanation for bodybuilders, because we have trained to do pull ups and chin ups for back muscles, that's why we think the muscle up is sort of such exercises so we fail in it. Ah BTW the first move you're doing instead of doing a pull up is called the cable Pullover exercise, it targets the mid lats. Then it comes the dips exercise in the end. For a bodybuilder I think he may lack of the technique but not the strength to execute the movement.
Great Muscle Up Tip! I try to visualise slamming the bonnet of a car too! It’s definitely helping!
thanks bro. you have made a critical point. I will try this now every time i do my rings
Have not seen this tip anywhere else. Will give it a go.
5 years late, thanks to this vid I got my first muscle up in a month and a half. I am still reliant on the swing momentum from the ground so I have not yet capable of pulling 2 muscle up in one go, but so happy to get my first one.
Never mind, after a week I did maximum 4 reps in one set, thanks for the tuts! 😄
The movement which you are describing at 2:50 is a radial pullup.
I've been trying to do muscle ups but failed. However, by watching this I am now confident on being able to do at least 1 muscle up very soon.
Dude, you make muscle up seems so easy. 🔥🔥🔥
