You nailed one of the things I always tell people I coach, too: a chest-to-bar pull-up is just a bigger chin-over bar pull-up, but a bar muscle-up is NOT just "and then go even bigger than your chest-to-bar." It has the same foundation as pull-ups, but then is fundamentally different. It's absolutely vital someone can recognize that and make themselves believe it before trying to get their first BMU. Otherwise, like you said, they just do "the biggest pull-up" they can, and then massacre the movement from there, risking injury and also just being a guaranteed frustration.
2:17 thank you so much! - i think this also would probably make sense from a safety standpoint because you're allowing your hips to do the work, thus avoiding putting any unhealthy strains on your elbow and shoulder joints!
There are many aspects to work on that you mention such as strength (strict pull-ups but also dips) and the swing + timing. You definitely need the use the momentum at the right time otherwise you won't go up. Moreover you need to work on your core to be able to do a muscle up. If you want to be powerful and use a maximum of that momentum for the transition, a strong core is the key 😁 Thanks for your videos Amanda. It's great seeing many Crossfit athletes giving tips on TH-cam ! Wish you the best for this season.
I actually need this! Thank you for the realistic advice. As I cannot get 5 strict pull ups. At this point I can maybe get one with out bands. Greatly appreciate it.
Just subbed, I think it might have been last years games but I saw you doing some cleans with super crisp form and your name stuck in my head after that. Its awesome to see you have a channel, your form look so good even at competition weights people will be able to learn a lot from your breakdowns.
That was SUPEER helpful!! I have strict pull ups but am coming from a background in bodybuilding so the technique of kipping is what I haven’t got!! Really hoping to get a BMU this year and definitely will use these tips!! Thanks so much!!!!
I’ve trained CrossFit too because my friend do CrossFit for years and years but you almost injured and not good with proper form but I trained in calisthenics that’s what I understands a lot of things that other human can’t achieve.. now I can handstand in cliffs like bridges and utilize calisthenics everywhere with proper forms like clean muscleups no kipping that in order to achieve clean muscle up you must strong enough to use your arms and forget that you do have a feet just use your arms like iron and squeeze the bar well and do explosive pull-ups like C form, handstand , front lever, now Im working the straddle planche, I can jump roll on bars, it’s incredible, o trees, road signs, everywhere
Thank as lot - slow motion really great thing to realize technique and afterwards try it. For me I understand I have my arms to much bent - so finalize is much lower position and fail
Reaaaaally great tips! I'm definitely wanting to get much better at these and already heard some awesome reminders and things I'm not even doing at all haha.
Great video Amanda! The slo-mo really does help! And I like the simple cues. I also Victory grips but can you explain when you use the finger holes and why you don’t for bar MU? I’ve gone back and forth and can’t seem to make up my mind. And I typically catch the bar low and am more over the bar. I’m going to use this to try and swing further through and catch higher!
Everything is clear and the topic is not new, but when a person who is interesting to me explains it, I can watch it again and again (in addition, everyone can have their own approach) ... The video was released on the CompTrain channel with you, I'll subscribe there too )))
Thanks Amanda! Do you have any tips on the grip. Everyone is drilling me to wrap my thumb however when I watch a lot of the pro CF athletes do Bar MU's, their thumb is on top. What are you thoughts on that? Thanks
A shoulder injury is a more likely issue than tearing a pec when doing any kind of kipping movement, rapid flexion of the wrist and rotation of the shoulder is very likely to end in injury at some point, every crossfitter i know currently has or has had a shoulder injury at some point and have no idea why it happened, its baffling
Does bringing your knees up help with you get your hips up further opposed to keeping them straight? Or are you just as awkward with your leg placement as I am? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is not a muscle up. It’s fundamental requirement is to use momentum and a kip - by definition this doesn’t use strength anywhere near as much as a muscle up. It’s a good skill and for many a key progression to a muscle up. But it isn’t a muscle up. Gymnasts use a glide kip which is using the same principles - but the clue is in the name - it’s a glide kip not a muscle up. This is a momentum bar hip swing - the hips come above the shoulders nearly. In a muscle up the aim is to have minimal kip and keep the body as vertical as possible. The lift should come from the arms and shoulders - it’s a big power move using an explosive pull up. This type of Kipping move does not in itself lead to development of the strength required to do a muscle up. By definition this aims to use momentum and kip not strength. This move is a progression to a muscle up but not a muscle up.
Love the editing on the slow-mo to show the points of focus. Great video!

Best explanation I've heard. I feel inspired and closer to my first muscle up at 70 years old. Thank you.
Go you
This is one of the best MU tips videos Ive seen and boy there are a lot of them!

Bad news is I need to keep trying to improve my Kipping.
Good news is that deer came out to graze from the woodlands across the street.
Thanks for all informations❤

Good niec tutorial ! l like this channel.
Thanks Amanda! Do you have any tips on the grip. Everyone is drilling me to wrap my thumb however when I watch a lot of the pro CF athletes do Bar MU's, their thumb is on top. What are you thoughts on that? Thanks
Thanks . Was very helpful 😂 to me
Thanks for this. I'm a little confused though. This is a really exaggerated kipping MU. Can you talk about a strict bar MU please? (without any kipp)
Great advice, thanks.
Thanks Amanda!! Any tips on strict?
Great tip, you make it look so easy tho!!!
This was excellent.
that was really informative
Great video!!
Wut shoes is the white reeboks?
Thank you!
Any tips for getting chest to bar pull ups? Been struggling with that. I can do 10 strict pull ups but havent been able to get ctb 😔
Try using a resistance Band and go for explosive speed.
Good info
Great channel, great physique. Cool
❤️
Nice 👍🏻
*how to do KIP UP*
They sure aren't as impressive as strict muscle ups.
THANK YOU!!!!

Perfect video for 24.3

Amanda you are the best looking athlete and very fit
Love you madam best of luck allah bless you
👍
💪💪💪🙏👍
I can do 20 strict pullups but I am an awful kipper. I end up doing 1 to 2 almost strict muscle ups and I'm toast.
Does bringing your knees up help with you get your hips up further opposed to keeping them straight? Or are you just as awkward with your leg placement as I am? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thank you for confirming. I was thinking the same thing.
Зачем девушке это нужно? Она превратилась в парня 😢
No muscles needed for this muscle up. Crossfitters 🤦🏼♂️
