3 days ago i was able to perform my first muscle up! You won't believe how awesome that moment was! I tried for more than 3 years! And then one day suddenly i tried and was able to do it! My hand was shaking, my heart was beating like i have been doing sprinting! Go for it guys! Muscle up will unlock a new level to your workout!
CARL WongTW i was able to make a muscle up after 2 weeks. Now i make 6-10 in a row. I don‘t know what this dude was doing for 3 years but it‘s not that hard. U just have to be patient and u will easily be able to make a muscle up
Been doing muscle ups for awhile, although i've been struggling to do them consecutively. For whatever reason i just can't manage to do more than one even though i've had occassions where i have done 2 or 3 in a row. I know i have the strength so i've just been focusing really hard on what i can do mechanically to be able to do reps and sets of muscle ups. I agree with both of you guys, most people never feel what it's like to be ABOVE the bar, but once you finally manage your first muscle up you feel so incredible and just want to throw your hands in the air... except you can't 😂 It really does make you feel like you're on top of the world. Anyway i'm still on my muscle up journey to figuring out how to do them consecutively hence why i found this video. That said i've not found a single video with tips on how to link together muscle ups, only videos on how to do them in general. So my journey continues to figure out the secret to consecutive muscle ups
Oh Yeah Yeah warrior level 967 true, I’m just a teenager and after watching an abundance of tutorial videos on the muscle up I managed to get it at somewhere between a month and a half and two months, admittedly there is still a slight kip but it’s possible with determination, eating right, and doing progressions properly
My physical talent is way below average. Almost everyone can’t believe that I can only climbing V6s after 10+ years. I bet for most people if they put in the same amount of time in fitness like I did they would be way better than me.
@@GeekClimber if you guys want gain some muscle our lose weight . Talk Whit this guy . He really can help . He helps people from different countries. Send him a email . luxpowermf@gmail.com . He names is maverick .
why would you ever wear slippers, I feel like unconsciously you try to move your feet in a way the slippers don't fall off, not fully focusing on your workout
You're such an inspiration. I've been doing a lot of bodyweight training recently, and being able to do 30 pull-ups but no muscle up was really making me rethink how strong I actually was. I've never watched any of your videos before, but seeing you overcome this obstacle while wanting to give up made me smile.
@@gabriellu5463 6 months ago I was mainly just training solely muscle endurance, so I was able to do 30 pullups in full range of motion and a lot of high rep sets. I didn't really know the technique for the muscle-up and I wasn't really lifting anything heavy or doing anything explosive. I've started doing weighted chin-ups since then, but if you're wondering, I was finally able to do my first muscle up about a month after I wrote this comment.
@@GeekClimber Remember this is a move that is part skill based and part power to bodyweight based. As a climber you have already honed your strength to master YOUR bodyweight. Your power to bodyweight ratio is excellent. What you can achieve on a wall is well beyond what an average Joe could achieve. Walk down the street an look at the average dude. I am in my late 40s 90kg and 6 ft 3 inches, I could barely do a pull up a year ago, I have had to train my ass off to hit 15. You can easily do 10. You have super low body fat and you have great pulling power. However credit to you for hitting your goal, it wasn't easy and the pain was real. Big respect.
Cool video. The simplicity of the video, the goal setting to something you want to be able to do, the work you put into it and the progress and result are great. Thanks for this video
geek or not, you are a inspiration bro. I don't know how i let myself down, from 15 pulls ups to not being able to do even 1. 25 years, 2 kids, a half baked career, feasting and no weight training, that's how. I will get my 15 pull ups back!!
For anyone trying to learn how to muscle up the biggest tip I could give you is to work on the negative part of the muscle up just as much as the pulling up part of it. Jump up and get yourself held up above the bar with your arms pushed straight down holding yourself up above the bar, and then slowly lower yourself down to the ground very slowly. Doing this helped me achieve my first muscle up in just about a week of practicing this multiple times a day. The negative part of the movement made such a huge difference for me.
To be honest I never understand why doing negatives help. Say if you are learning to swim, you learn with the help of a kickboard instead of swimming backwards.
@@GeekClimber I dont know tbh, I just know I wasnt really getting anywhere until I started doing the negative part and my progress bumped up so fast after that. Just a strange way our bodies work I guess.
@@GeekClimber like your swimming. A negative would be doing it laying on a board. So you can flop your arms around and learn how to do it After that you get those tubes arlund your arm or try the technique in a kiddy pool. Youre now swimming
Dude thanx for unlocking the secret for me. Literally just did my first real one after a year due to u pointing out bringing up ur knees. Much appreciate it
Haha there are so many variants of muscle ups and all the experts make them look so easy. The way I did it probably requires the least strength to do it 😆.
try this first th-cam.com/video/BZU2oy9L4DU/w-d-xo.html once you do super high pull ups you eventually do a muscle up without realizing it like i did lol
I have been doing the muscle up for about 9 months now. But i never pushed my chest foreward because i didn't know you needed to do that. It's because of you that i learned that. Thank you man
😆😆. To be fair most likely he guessed "max int" because of my accent. You gotta be at least the top 1% in school in your original country in order to be qualified for a golden ticket to come to the USA.
This was the first muscle up video I clicked on when I decided I wanted to try them, 24 days ago. Came back to this video again, and just did my first one, thanks so much.
Hii geek climber i just want to say man you are a god.... I just did my first proper muscle up today and i am on cloud 9..thanks for making it simple. I never had any problem with strength but would never go above chest.. Thenx tells to do a lat pull down that was not working for me. I was also making the 2 mistakes: Thumb on top of bar and Knees not touching the chest, i was trying to start the knees towards an LSit but today i changed that.. At first did the chicken wing and after a few more tries cwas able to do 1 muscleup with good form(not the best) Was stuck on it for so long. Thanks mate.
Back in high school i went from 4 basic pull ups to 8 muscle ups in a month although i did train 3 hours, 6 times a week. The only 2 things you have to do to make muscle ups easier is try to do pull ups as high as possible and do dips on 1 bar (like when you're supposed to push up from the bar), talking from personal experience.
Starting off, forget about Radical Racc. All you have to do if you want to increase your amount of pull-ups is this: Start with chin-ups because they are easier. Do as many as you can every day until you can hit 5 consecutive chin-ups. After that, start doing pull-ups. And again, do as many as you can each day. Your back and arm strength will increase no doubt!
@@radicalracc5918 if you have never tried the pull ups in particular it's very possible that you can't do even 1. When I tried a pull up for the first time I couldn't do even one and barely 2 chin ups, but at the time I was able to do 50 clean push ups.
Arbulon Rexhepi we are talking about the average person though I would hope the average person exercises if you exercise regularly pull-ups should not be a problem
The way you made the video is too creative and funny, I enjoyed watching it and you inspired me to work more and more to reach more levels in my workout exercices.
Great job man, i'm also working towards muscle ups inspired by ironically both magnus and mike so you're video has added fuel to the fire!! I've only recently started general exercise having lost over 5st in weight in the last year, mainly through nutritional changes and lots of walking/swimming, but i've got my pull up bar installed, can do about 4 pull ups so far and hope to have muscle ups down before the end of next month :)
@@GeekClimber Google "false-grip". It's a technique gymnasts use to make that so much easier. You basically have your whole wrist over the bar so you don't need to rotate your hand during the transition from pulling to pushing. You might still need to get more explosive pulling strength, but that technique really helps a lot.
I like your efforts dude. Congratulations, Very inspiring. I've lived a very sedentary like til now and I'm getting older (almost 60), however my goal is to be able to do 5 pull ups..just regular ones.
I do believe it really is a getting a feel for it. Today I walked into the gym did five of them! Unfortunately my gym does not have a straight bar so I'm using a slightly angled variation which I learned is dangerous. So I will be heading to Home Depot to build my own bar in the backyard. I will continue to train this until I can perform at least 10 strict muscle ups. After that,being able to hang on a 10-foot rim @ 5'9" and 500 lb deadlift. Still got a lot of work to do but setting goals and accomplishing them, it's probably one of the best feelings you can give yourself. keep up the great work man!! looking forward to the progress
Good job! Ive had the same problems when i tried learning muscle up and i was like, where am i doing it wrong?!? i can do sooooo many pullups in a row but getting on top of the bar with both arms at same time is so hard! so the technique were the biggest problem but i learned it like 2 months ago and now im feeling great when doing it!
I love your videos, these are a lot of movements I've been trying to go, and your breakdown and tweaks you find are exactly what I've been searching for. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
The progression I only did for muscle up was making like 4x10 muscle ups with 2 resistance bands then 1 resistance band i tried to increase reps every other training to 10 and when I did 1 resistance band 4x10 I went without any resistance band and did 4x4 muscle ups. It took me 2 weeks though. Resistance bands learn you how the movement works
@by It's mostly about technique. If you can do a pull-up to your chest and a straight bar dip then with the proper technique you can do a muscle-up, but it's still better to get stronger first, because muscle up is one of those moves where you can wreck your shoulders pretty easily.
@@Benkkuful Why do muscle ups wreck the shoulders? Pretty sure a normal muscle up doesn't have the chest sticking out. Also, muscle ups do require a lot of strength. I can do 18 pull ups and pull to my upper abs/lower chest and I can't do a strict muscle up.
This average guy learns the "kipping muscle-up" in 35 days. Not trying to be negative, but I have some general advice. The best way to learn any bodyweight exercise is to focus on form, you will likely be injured if you continue doing this version. I would suggest doing strict muscle-ups with resistance bands. Keep on lowering the strength of the resistance bands until you don't need it anymore, then do them with good form. Just a suggestion, but good effort!
Eh, resistance bands didn't really help for me. I learned the kipping MU with resistance bands and that was when I had almost no assistance from the bands. It took a lot longer for me to learn the strict MU even when I already could do it strict with very light resistance.
I never did muscle ups unill the gyms where closed and i had no other choise but to use calestatic parks to train. I learned it in 15 mins from the video you where showing. Ur first mistake is that you should've trained on normal pull ups min 10/15 and then 15 dips. Explosive aswell, basically waisted allot of days
@@GeekClimber Thanks for your reply. So, are you still practicing the muscle up? For me, I've been working on my pull up by making sure my chest gets past the bar. I've been practicing pretty much everyday for three weeks. Fortunately, I'm not sore or haven't been able to attempt the move.
you're sickk mann....you can actually do a lot of things and learn so many in such a short time. I hope I have that much motivation to learn something. speaking of which, I can barely do 10 pullups engaging the back and am learning to do muscle ups currently *laughs in tears*
Keeping those flip-flops on is a skill of its own.

I've only recently started general exercise having lost over 5st in weight in the last year, mainly through nutritional changes and lots of walking/swimming, but i've got my pull up bar installed, can do about 4 pull ups so far and hope to have muscle ups down before the end of next month :)
Go for it dude! I am sure you can do it if you continue to work on it! It’s all about being persistent!
i really enjoyed seeing you succeed after you struggles congrats man well done!
Haha I still remember the moment when I successfully did my first muscle-up. It’s an unforgettable moment for me!
I like how you look like you are holding a certificate in your hands when you explain stuff
LOLLL 😆😆😆 your comments always give me a good laugh 👍
"Hey man how long did it take you to do muscle ups?"
"35 days"
"Oh coo- wait what."
I just want tell you, that your video inspired me a lot man, am hitting the muscle up journey soon as i get back to gym. Thank you 😊
This is more help-full than tutorials even 🤷🏻♂️👏👏👏
Haha this is definitely the easiest variation to do a muscle up. I had to piece together information from different videos.
@@GeekClimber i can only do the chicken muscle up 😔
now try a strict musle up without momentum, just from a dead hang. shit's on another level of difficulty
I think he could learn it in a few months since he probably has the wrist strength to false grip already.
I tried it without momentum and it felt impossible. I will need to improve my pull strength first.
@@GeekClimber Google "false-grip". It's a technique gymnasts use to make that so much easier. You basically have your whole wrist over the bar so you don't need to rotate your hand during the transition from pulling to pushing. You might still need to get more explosive pulling strength, but that technique really helps a lot.
Thanks for the pointer, Jami! I will look into it and see what false grip is.
Andre I have Done it was hard af
Thanks for sharing 35 days of knowledge and saving us months of trying the wrong approach or trying to figure it out.
Will try this soon!
Freaking beautiful, man. You're my inspiration.
Glad you find the video inspiring! Best of luck on your fitness journey!
I literally did a muscle after watching this vid. I've been trying for weeks
Great job dude!!! Glad that the video helped!
Dude your video was the best tutorial to me by far on TH-cam, yesterday was my first time doing my muscle ups and it’s all thanks to your video 👍🏽💯
BE WATER MY FRIEND Congratulations! :)
Huge congrats!! That’s amazing! Glad that my video helped you!
2:33 that blue guy dance...
Thats definitely green, maybe leaning on teal.
EttGlasVatten your probably looking through a bad lcd panel.. idk but it’s definitely blue and teal
I like your efforts dude. Congratulations, Very inspiring. I've lived a very sedentary like til now and I'm getting older (almost 60), however my goal is to be able to do 5 pull ups..just regular ones.
I highly recommend you give rock climbing a try! That’s how I developed my pull strength for the pull-ups.
Could feel your happiness as you achieved your 3x muscle up goal!! Well Done Man!!!
Moral of the story...
Technique, technique, TECHNIQUE!!!
...and slippers.
Yeah if you can do 10 pull-ups in a row then it’s all about technique!
Great video!Just did my first one yesterday. looking forward to the progression
Great job dude! I am working on the non kipping version but it might take me a while to get it.
I do believe it really is a getting a feel for it. Today I walked into the gym did five of them! Unfortunately my gym does not have a straight bar so I'm using a slightly angled variation which I learned is dangerous. So I will be heading to Home Depot to build my own bar in the backyard. I will continue to train this until I can perform at least 10 strict muscle ups. After that,being able to hang on a 10-foot rim @ 5'9" and 500 lb deadlift. Still got a lot of work to do but setting goals and accomplishing them, it's probably one of the best feelings you can give yourself. keep up the great work man!! looking forward to the progress
You made me feel a million times better and saved me
a hundred videos to watch :”D You’re brilliant !
nice work brah, go on interesting content.
srsly greetz from germany
So awesome to know that I have viewers from Germany! Glad you like the video man!
Good job! Ive had the same problems when i tried learning muscle up and i was like, where am i doing it wrong?!? i can do sooooo many pullups in a row but getting on top of the bar with both arms at same time is so hard! so the technique were the biggest problem but i learned it like 2 months ago and now im feeling great when doing it!
Haha so cool that we went through a similar journey. Congrats on learning the muscle up!
Thanks, man. Your video made all the difference in me making my first muscle up after a month of working up to it!
Love the video and your enthusiasm! I’m inspired to finally get a muscle up too now 👊😛💥
Go for it dude! You got this!
When i see this video, im just smile, it remains me when my first time i get muscle up, same like u, youtube ,training then youtube again.😁
Haha high five bro! So cool to know that you have been through the same journey as I did.
@@GeekClimber everyone struggle to get muscle up..😄
Thanks man ! After years of trying it out i finally sorted out the hole trick in your video! I ve done it!!!
Congrats dude!!! That’s amazing! The way I did it is definitely the easiest variant of doing a muscle up.
Never give up and always say : "I can do it ! "
You are right! It’s all about being persistent!
I did it after 3 months of calisthenics guys! One muscle up!
Honestly these are so mind opening for techniques, i love these videos
Great video! Maybe I should give the muscle up one more chance :D Congrats on the progression man, really inspiring.
Go for it dude! If you focus on it and be persistent I am sure you can get it!
I've been trying to practice muscle ups and this inspired me do much, also you are far from average 😊
Far below yeah
@@AndrewD. how many pull ups can the average man do?
You got this! If you put in the work I am sure you can do it!. I am rooting for you!
I love your videos, these are a lot of movements I've been trying to go, and your breakdown and tweaks you find are exactly what I've been searching for. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
The progression I only did for muscle up was making like 4x10 muscle ups with 2 resistance bands then 1 resistance band i tried to increase reps every other training to 10 and when I did 1 resistance band 4x10 I went without any resistance band and did 4x4 muscle ups. It took me 2 weeks though. Resistance bands learn you how the movement works
Inspirational dude\\\
BUT I wouldn't say you're average
Haha whenever I walk into the gym and see other people doing their climbs/workouts I feel average.
People like you are more important then anyone of those bb guys fitness gurus ands shit. Respect
Moral of the story: perseverance is key
You are absolutely right!!
Thank you man, that was very inspiring, i literally watched your video yesterday, and done muscle up today!!!
Awesome job dude!!! Glad that my video helped you!
one of the best feelings when you finally get it. well done!
Just found u out today I’m not that interested in rock climbing or muscle ups it’s just that ur coooollllll xd xdxdxd
Haha I think TH-cam knows deep down that you want to give rock climbing a try!
Nicely done! But out of curiosity and gauging how average you are: how many regular pull-ups can you do before failure?
@by He says he does 10 easily, but I'd like to know his max rep :)
My max is around 13. I can do 10 "without a problem" but definitely not "easily" haha. I can feel the burn/soreness after 10 pull ups in a row.
@by It's mostly about technique. If you can do a pull-up to your chest and a straight bar dip then with the proper technique you can do a muscle-up, but it's still better to get stronger first, because muscle up is one of those moves where you can wreck your shoulders pretty easily.
@@Benkkuful Why do muscle ups wreck the shoulders? Pretty sure a normal muscle up doesn't have the chest sticking out. Also, muscle ups do require a lot of strength. I can do 18 pull ups and pull to my upper abs/lower chest and I can't do a strict muscle up.
Dude!!! Yes. That was awesome. Such a great mentality and journey. Thanks for the inspiration. 💪😁👏👏👏
Glad you like it! I still remember the moment when I first made it haha.
Geek Climber I bet you do. I look forward to that day. 😁💯
This average guy learns the "kipping muscle-up" in 35 days.
Not trying to be negative, but I have some general advice. The best way to learn any bodyweight exercise is to focus on form, you will likely be injured if you continue doing this version.
I would suggest doing strict muscle-ups with resistance bands. Keep on lowering the strength of the resistance bands until you don't need it anymore, then do them with good form.
Just a suggestion, but good effort!
Eh, resistance bands didn't really help for me. I learned the kipping MU with resistance bands and that was when I had almost no assistance from the bands. It took a lot longer for me to learn the strict MU even when I already could do it strict with very light resistance.
Gosh, it’s not strict but that doesn’t mean that it’s damaging 🙄
Not everything gets you injured when performed at simpler form...
@@mimixis It's usually bad for beginners because they don't know how to do it properly.
It was just challenge. I dont think he will continue to train any calisthenics move..
@@mimixis It actually is damaging. Hurts your elbows a lot. I used to do the same thing he's doing lol and it hurts
I never did muscle ups unill the gyms where closed and i had no other choise but to use calestatic parks to train.
I learned it in 15 mins from the video you where showing. Ur first mistake is that you should've trained on normal pull ups min 10/15 and then 15 dips. Explosive aswell, basically waisted allot of days
Dude thanks to you I success my first muscle up today!!
Huge congrats!! That’s amazing!
Muscle up is a compound movement, so you need to have functional strength and good control of all muscles to work as one.
Totally agree with you! It's all about strength and coordination.
"But how could that be?" *eyebrow raise*
Best moment
Haha I filmed that shot after I did the muscle up. In reality I was much more frustrated 😆.
absolutely love the analytical breakdown
Okay, so at one point, you attempted the muscle up every other day. My question was answered. Cheers.
Ah, I saw this comment 30 seconds too late haha.
@@GeekClimber Thanks for your reply. So, are you still practicing the muscle up? For me, I've been working on my pull up by making sure my chest gets past the bar. I've been practicing pretty much everyday for three weeks. Fortunately, I'm not sore or haven't been able to attempt the move.
An experienced mountain climber is not an average person. Sitting at home watching netflix while snacking a pack of doritos that's a average person.
Haha I am sure climbers occasionally sit at home and watch Netflix while snacking a pack of Doritos some time.
you're sickk mann....you can actually do a lot of things and learn so many in such a short time. I hope I have that much motivation to learn something. speaking of which, I can barely do 10 pullups engaging the back and am learning to do muscle ups currently *laughs in tears*
