If your purpose is to impress people, you impress much more with a good looking Front Lever or a Human Flag which to me are a bit more difficult but not that much That said , if you kip a muscle up af like the average guy (I was among them lol) it just makes u ridicolous rather than "cool", unless your purpose is to impress people who dont have any minimum knowledge about bw training and strength in general
@@federicodigioia4463 To a casual eye front lever doesn't impress anyone. You will be surprised people being impressed more by a handstand than planche. The human flag so far is the one that has really impressed people who don't train.
Honestly the first time I did a muscle up it was the most exhilarating feeling. It literally felt as if I was on top of the world. Over time however, I realized that it was a movement that put stress on my elbows and shoulders. It was also replaceable with other movements and wasn’t some unique move for secret strength.
@@golinagalaxmi7737 very positive! The mobility course is very well done and you can learn a lot from it. High quality videos and clear training routine.
The muscle ups strangely feel awesome when you do them. There's no other exercises that feel as rewarding as them, not sure why. I love them, but I do them mostly as a 'warm up' before a workout. 5-6 clean muscle ups for a few sets and after that, I feel hyped and ready for my levers, pull ups, etc,
I use them too before a bench or deadlift, went from 1-3 sloppy reps to up to 8 clean straight leg reps in a week, so I do them any time I see a pull up bar 😂
I do this exactly. The first thing I do when I walk in the gym is bang out 1 set of muscle ups to chin up superset. Its a great way to gauge how my body is feeling that day
As soon as your form breaks down enough that your chest touches the bar, start doing dips, then finish with pull ups (or another muscle up). I've been doing these for years, sure they might do nothing for front levers and handstand pushups, but I've never known a move to be so useful for motivating me to do more reps
Due to Calisthenicmovement Channel, today is my 42nd day in a roll, Zero day off, since I started myself a 100 push-up daily challenge. I've mixed 10 different positions, levels, styles, to don't be bored... and the results are amazing.. Thanks a lot guys!
It also makes getting onto something from a hanging position much easier. Of course there are pull-over variations, but the muscle up is more convinient.
Great Video. As always nice explanations and good research. Do you have a explanatorial Video or tutorial for the ring muscle ups? I'd like to know how to do it perfect form before I get into it. Best regards
thanks had the same thought coming up in my mind... achieved them and wanted to improve with them, but noticed that I did not rly feel the improvement overall, like I did before I did so many of them
Come on guys, I just got my first few muscle ups, and now this Video (haven't watched it yet though). But we always know, the video is gonna be high quality
hey, you should do a video where you do all the exercises you talk about in your video "how to workout at home", we like those videos because they're easier to follow since we can just turn on our tv or pc and follow you as you go and complete it like that
I say it is more of a skill you learn to make sure you can pull explosively. I was at like 18 pull ups before I got my first muscle up because I would pull slowly. Not necessary but just helps you be a more well rounded calisthenics athlete if you are able to do them. Edit: Finished watching the video and they basically said what I did in the end :p
Hi cali first of all i would like to thank you for all your very effective videos then i suggest you to do a tutoriel about one arm handstand because their are only few videos talking about this topic.
I find being able to do a muscle up very important for watersports - whitewater especially. It's the movement you use to get back on a raft before getting crushed by a rock.
Hi, guys! Didn't know where to write to you so asking here - it would be very helpful if you do a detailed video on training gloves for calisthenics. What to look for and what not to buy, what works and what doesn't. Thanks.
Woowwwwwwww I was trying to pull straight up to actually attempt the muscle ups. It's crazy tho how close I am doing it improperly... Thx so much for the simple yet effective form
If your got efficient on the bar muscle up you can use it pretty good as accessory exercise to weighted pull ups, because it is less taxing and extremely explosive. For me it was extra volume with great carryover to any other pulling movement
I'm on the lean/thin side and I've always loved doing push ups/pull ups/jogging. No matter how many I did, I rarely saw a change in physique. I didn't really see any gains until I started doing muscle ups. Within the first two weeks I noticed my arms getting thicker and my upper body more sculpted.
I dont like crossfit so i focused on doing straight pullups and now its so hard to shift my brain to do the rotation part of the muscle ups, been training bodybuilding for years so strenght isnt the problem but the mind muscle connection i have really screws me over
You should do a collab' with Magnus Mitbo ! Could be fun to see you in a climbing gym and I don't know why but I've got a great feeling it'll have a good chemistry between you!
Only gymnasts or students for coaching would be that committed to learn all these skills..... no average joe will go to the gym after all day at work and try these exercises........ these are too damn hard for just building a harmonious physique .... although amazingly good and worth the try 💪🏻
I recently did a video on this exact topic and recommended you guys as an example of the best way to focus on this skill. Muscle Ups are definitely overhyped... but tbh... I don't think many of us care
Amazing video!! Could you please also do one about archer pull ups and one arm pull ups? I usually do normal pullups to stretch my back after being on the computer all day and wonder if the archer provide any extra benefit or it's just more strain on the shoulders Thanks!!!
At age 21 I did 43, strict, no kips, double muscle ups in University of Virginia gym with a law student keeping count. I had started working on them at age 16 when I saw a guy do one behind the high school gym and was hugely impressed, made a horizontal bar behind my parent's house and worked very hard at it, getting that first one. I was a wrestler (not very good - average); so, was an athlete and weight lifter. The trick was an "over grip" on the bar and having very thin, light legs, lower body. My strength was all in my upper body. I am now 81 and can not do a regular pull up.
I bought your calisthenics workout program from level 1 to 5 and just completed level 1 and 2 and I can do bar muscle ups 3-4 rep in strict form and 5 and 6th rep with kick....can you guys make a tutorial for ring muscle up i have difficulty in doing transition.
Basically a muscle up is like a ferrari. Its a symbol of consistency, practice, hardwork, dedication and also is great to show off. However you can have other cheaper cars that will have the same function as the ferrari in terms of being a car that drives you from A to B.
3:44 Muscle ups can also help in pulling skills like front lever ,backlever and one arm pull-up right? Like not directly but learning the muscle up is good start for lever and oap journey right?

Muscle up can save us in some real life situations. To be able to pull all of our body is something we need to train.
OMG that hapiness in her face . I hope i reach that one two after doing my first muscle up

When did you guys start with calisthenics? I enjoy your videos really. Danke euch, ihr inspiriert mich!
Which consecutive pull up rep count is the ideal foundation to start muscle ups? Very informative video btw.
isn't the training to reach muscle-up, the muscle-up itself?
Loool
Level up
Maybe the real muscle-ups were the gains we made along the way
No, high pullups?
Hi guys , can you please do a video on some rehab workouts about the injuries that occurs from pull focused exercises. Please please do it .

Do you think the muscle up on bar with false grip is similar to the muscle up on rings for strength and muscle mass?
And I also wanna know that if u have less hieght then should we do less pushups as people say it blocks height
