Doing negatives. Since that requires a high spance over the bar and this isn't always available in public spaces, an asited banded pull up focusing in the negative part would be the most inportant thing, I think.
@@jakobottesen My core is still too weak for those; to be clear: I'm still learning to muscle up, but by far what helped me the most in the past going for a few pull ups to more than a dozen was doing slow negatives (because the muscles are stronger in the eccentric phase), and that allow me to build adaptation.
I've been following the workout you suggested to develop my high pull-ups. Man, the progress I've made in 2 weeks on my high pull ups is more than I've made in the last year of training. Like genuinely bro, the value is insane. Those seated pull-ups are crazy good. Muscle up currently loading...
Great tutorial! All of those exercises are probably the best to not only get high pull-ups but also for the muscle up. Let’s face it, if you can do a pull-up to your waist then a muscle up is not a big deal. I’m going to work on all of them!
Thanks! Having a higher pull-up definitely makes the muscle up easier. But there are some aspects of the muscle up that are nice to train individually imo. Good luck, let me know how it goes! 💪🔥
I wish that the pull-up bars in gyms were better. They've got a ton of different grips but no straight bar option. It's pretty annoying. But great video!
ahhh you're in Moholt studentby :D That is so cool, was there for Erasmus about 10 years ago, such good times. Back then there were none of those high buildings and neither the calisthenics park
Thanks, mate! Really appreciate it! It's definitely true what you said about the mindset. Somehow my mind is actually blocking me from getting over the bar, forcing my body to do the wrong kind of thing to do get above and on top of the bar, prior to the triceps extension, so to say.
I'm the one who struggle with high pull up for years,I can pull high to belly but only under 3 reps. I'm going to incoporate these suggestion into my training routine to see if there is any minor progress. Very appreciate for all the recommended movement and your selfless attitude Respect form Taiwan.😁
Found your channel recently through this video :) Thank you for sharing your knowledge, will implement your advices in my next work outs👌 Keep up the great work 💪
This is a good video thank you for posting it, i will definitly try the seated L sit to high pull up, ive just started my journey to become a fit dad and the muscle up is the first skill i want to learn !
@@Minimumeffortrif nope, no videos about hamstring strength and flexibility. Could look more into it though. Anything about this topic you're curious about in particular? (Like particular exercises, etc.?)
@jakobottesen no problem. You've got some good content on your channel and its well explained so I'll watch your other vids as only just subscribed. The human flag is another move I'm 'slowly' trying to master too.
Nice, thanks for the feedback bro! I'm glad it helped 😊 Do you have any types of videos you'd like to see me make? Calisthenics training on rings or otherwise...?
@@jakobottesen Hi ! Well, I only started working out last week. I bought rings. So, my situation might be a bit special. I would love to be able to muscle up on rings. To do that, I have to get A LOT better at pull ups. If you can show us how to pull higher with rings, I would enjoy watching that for sure. Other that that I am struggling with fatigue and overall, I don't know how often I should train / rest. Any tip is welcome. I wish you the best, and thank you again for sharing.
I reached the strict explosive muscle up by only training explosive pull ups. If I couldn't get at least my chest to the bar, then I didn't count it as a rep, and I rested until I could.
Like how to increase the number of reps I can do because the world record is only 20 and it didn’t take me long to get to 20 pullups so I was wondering if you knew how to get more reps of ring muscle ups. Thanks!
Bro this is COMICally structured advice. "My first tip is to do this movement that less than 5% of people at your gym can do with reasonable ROM." OK MAN SURE THING
Wouldn't it be possible to make hanging row exercises to be more like pullups to the waist? That's way you could start them with low intensity and add weight later. I didn't see much about regressed exercises in the video . I sometimes do a long pull exercise. Starting hanging vert8cally, ending in a horizontal row position. The regression is to keep the feet on a high box. I actually notice that this exercise developed the lower part of the lats much more than for example pullups or chinups. It was a surprising and notisable difference. And I have always thought that kind of back look better than with too much only upper back development. And with feets on a box it's a very complete back exercise.
For most of the exercises stick to very low reps. For Lsit pull-ups you can do 3-5, for weighted pull-ups use whatever rep/set scheme that helps you put on more weight across several months, for explosive pull-ups go for 1-3 reps, and banded pull-ups are also some 3-5 reps. You shouldn't think about this as going to failure. But rather using as much energy as you can on each of the few reps. Per workout pick 2-3 exercises 3-2 sets ish
@jakobottesen ya I didn't try it but that's how I learnt normal pull ups. I guess to get in that position do same way as with normal negative pull up. Stand on chair/stool/step ladder
The OAPU is infamous for giving people tendonitis, but as long as you listen to your body and perhaps throw in some elbow strengthening exercises from time to time, it is achievable injury-free
It depends. Some people can train every day and have that work quite well for them. But if you're not getting proper recovery (sleep and nutrition, etc.) it'll definitely be harder to keep up with a lot of training volume. Also, every couple of weeks/months most people do well with taking a deload week and going a bit easier so that's something to consider too. If you want to get to a point of training daily I'd dial in sleep and nutrition, and build up the number of weekly training days slowly over a few weeks/months
In gymnastics we used to do these with so much force that we would pull up on the bar with our momentum when we hit the top. I would say the feeling you want is to think that you are going to pull up using this bar to propell yourself to grab an imaginary bar that is much higher or to launch yourself over the bar itself. It's very dynamic and it comes slowly, but it'll come if you practice enough.
@@jakobottesen Combinations of holding a dumbell uncentered in a preacher curl form and twisting the wrist to alternate between pronated and supenated grip, but strangely what has helped the most was chinups and ring curls lol
