I first learned the muscle-up in 2007 as a teenager. Doing parkour helped me gain explosive pull-up power. It took me around 3 months of practice to learn muscle-ups as a beginner, how about you?
I trained 3 months i can do now slow muscle ups with no false grip
Ive struggled because pullups/pulling exercises are the most difficult ones for me. I havent really focused my training on muscle ups because of this, so am first focusing on other skills and will then move onto pullups. Pullups are without a doubt one of the most difficult exercises to do
Hi Dan, My quick question is, would you consider 3 times a week ideal ? Is two days rest too much? I’ve hit a plateau…. I can do about 4-5 ring muscle ups but struggle to link together bar muscle up. I think this is because when a transition my arms flare out and I have great shoulder dip mobility so I can grind out this last 2 ring muscle ups…..I’ve isolated my lack of scapula power, lack of advanced core power and explosive pulls as the key areas requiring work, also grip at full extension of arms would require attention. I used to train under Pete Satori, absolute Top G…if I could get to half the capabilities he has I’d be happy.
@unknownuserisunknown I can do about 8 - 10 pullups at least 😃 but you're right it is a super important area to really focus on
production quality is through the roof recently, easily some of the highest quality fitness content on the internet. thanks daniel 💪💪
Couldn't agree more! Keep it up
Also try false grip, it feels like flying
Agreed videos are short, informative, and to the point without being condescending
This is the most comprehensive muscle-up guide I have ever seen. Amazing work!
My favorite part of FitnessFAQ videos is probably always gonna be Daniel making an absolute fool of himself kipping 😂😂 6:08
Easily the most fun part of production. Being silly WITHOUT injury is the goal every time.
2:09 that's me lol
Always refreshing to see a new FitnessFAQs video even after all these years
This is by far the best muscle up tutorial I have ever seen on RUclips. A really complex approach for those that are training to get their bodies to the next level on bodyweight mastery, Thank u! Best tutorial ever let the internet world knows it!
Wow! What an excellent tutorial. The production quality is tops. The insights from Daniel's education, personal experience and client training is the gold standard for calisthenics and gymnastics exercises.
As soon as my right forearm heals from overtraining on Pull-Ups, I'll soon thereafter add myself to Daniel's list of client success. I sure wish our gym had a straight bar, that is to say, a high bar like in gymnastics. I have rings, but no place to hang them!
That analogue of power lifting is well appreciated 👍
Awesomness!!! Super useful and inspiring! Thanks!🔥🔥🔥
This is my year… for the muscle up! LETS GO!
As usual, very helpful, concise, well-produced.
not gonna lie but damn daniel your character in this video is so much fun you aint just strong but hella charismatic.
@daniel great video man! I was a gymnast for 14 years and you explain this stuff better than any coach I have ever had. Im 37 now and getting back into calisthenics. I was inspired by the video you did with Dr. Mike Isretal.
Love the camerawork u guys are doing!
Amazing video. I am currently on my way to unlocking the RMU, this helps!
Great video and your sense of humor had me laughing and rewinding to rewatch a few times 😂
Great muscle up tutorial. Always love the content. 💪
Great video Daniel, thank you
Yo this editing is amazing and so is the info thank you!
This is EXACTLY what i need rn in my calisthenics journey.
I started properly practising muscle ups in January. I was using the purple and black bands together. In May, I got my first unassisted one. Just practice every week, and you will get it. I just have to work on the form now.
yes sir! Banded Dips are fire. Will speed up dip progression in my experience
bro makes the front lever pulls look easy, when in fact they often are more difficult to do than a muscle up🤦♂
it is the easiest
Definitelly will try the baby muscle up, even i can do chest to ring/bar pull ups, the transition is my big weakness, thanks for great video as always
I accidentally achieved 1 rep on rings from doing few baby muscle ups in my warm-up. They were included for 5 weeks when I randomly tried and did one without feet (frequency was 3 times per week). Main work at the time was in body rows (australian pull ups) and push ups... not even pull ups nor dips. My experience also approves them.
Fantastic. Weighted pullups are way to go.
Damn your videos are getting better and better
This is a godsend. thanks man
Amazing content, you are my go-to channel when learning callisthenic technique
AWESOME tips, as always!
Daniel, do you have some video with tips/directions to build our own backyard set of bars e parallels?
Wonderful video.
Great video.
thanks for sharing these jewels with us
Wow the energy from this video is like some serious PWO
Bro this is pure gold
Thanks!
Fantastic!!! False grip rows! Negative muscle-ups! Baby muscle-ups!❤ So much to explore❤ Your videos are super awesome; you remind me of the actor Mark Wahlberg😁
You are the best I'm glad I found you.
Inspiring. In a world full of misguiding and uneducated content, so happy Daniel is here to be the opposite of that. We are all so grateful for you man. Cheers
Thank you. :)
You are the best.
great video, really
I will try these one of these days when I'm able to my ceiling is kind of low but eventually maybe I can go to like an actual gym or something but as far as hanging since I hurt my back if I stretch out my lower back it gives me that spasm pain and feeling the rest of my spine I can definitely stretch is just my lower back right now I cannot sell will not be able to just hang I'd have to track my abs the entire time to keep my lower back in place sounds quite difficult but I will do the best I can as time goes on baby steps and slowly progressing here and there
Resistance band did help, a lot.
so the transition is the key thing to train, i guess i will try to do reps of the middle transitional portion.
I need this. My explosive pullup is upto my upper abs/bellow the chest.. will aim for waist now
Yes boss 😊❤
Insane Video!
If I am doing MU Eccentrics on the bar, am I using false grip there as well?
I suffered from tenniselbow if I took the usual grip.
Going to save this vid for a few years from now lol.
My gym doesnt have a high enough roof for this.
I'll never understand how negative bar muscle ups should be any useful to a movement that's done completely explosive
Actually, for me the hardest part is the front dip. It is much more easy to do dips with lateral bars for me, with a front bar I struggle.
WHAT, DUDE I WAS JUST TRAINING FOR THESE! 4.7 hours ago.....
I need higher ceilings in my home. I would hit my head, ha ha. Serious thanks, I could use the band tip, or the weight tip, just to get better at regular pull ups.
Excellent tutorial. I'm 63 with at least one partial tear on a rotator cuff. I'm slowly trying to build strength and mindful of my body's limits. I can do 10+ pull ups, but can't seem to cultivate the explosive strength required. The pull ups are getting higher. Is it just a matter of staying with it or am I too old? I've been chipping away at it for a year (among other workouts) thus far.
help, exist some tips of respiration for pull up?
Where can I get this ring and bar setup? The whole cage looks pretty nice. I'd like to get one for my garage
Awesome,,,can u tell me a good guy ruting for muscle up?
How should the breathing be like when doing a muscleup, because I often end up holding my breath till I get to the top? Now recently what I have begun to do is exhale out loud while pulling up explosively
I can do a lot of pullups like 10-15 pullups but I don't think I have the strength in the upper range of motion (as in I can't touch even my chest to the bar), Is there a way for me to gain the strength in the upper range of motion and get to the muscle up?
It is in the video. You need to start training explosively
technically you can use chains for specificity, but extra weight can work great, 80% of max for 3-5 reps with explosive but controlled form
I have the exact same problem
I remember once I got so overweight, the good doctor told me to lose some weight. A friend suggested gymnastics. So I tried this, the Gymnastic Ring. . Failed miserably. So I switched to the Uneven bars. THEY'RE EVEN NOW!
they’re*
Hey!
How much rest btwn sets for heavy weighted pullups?
How to fix left shoulder higher than right, right lat bigger than left, and left trap bigger than right?
😅😅 he reached through the screen and bitch slapped me when he said "don't be that guy who can do 15 pull ups but no muscle ups." My shit ass apartment doesn't have high enough ceilings okay?! Gawd...
I had few sets of few reps before but lost it due to injury. Then I lost it randomly. But I dont like it anyway cause its mostly technique and the transition strength is the bottleneck. Id rather spend my energy on something else.
can you explain how can i make my lower mack and core strong ? 2 years i've made them strong but i need an advanced guide to make them even stronger
Agree with all the comments on the quality of the video. Anyone know the name of the background track from 6:30?
A dumb question :
For the bar muscle-up you need to start in active hang our passive one?
Because I start all my pull-ups reps from passive hang, now that i'm trying explosive one, starting from passive hang, look like that I'm not able to explode (i know because i'm starting it wouldn't be very explosive but I feel the mind muscle connection is not there for exploding) and starting from active one don't feel natural for me.
I've started training the muscle up with resistance bands, but I have a problem:
Everytime I go through the transition and get into the bottom part of the dip, my elbow just kinda "locks" and starts hurting and I can't push myself up. I have to lie on the bar, let go and grip it again before I actually can do the dip portion.
Tips anyone?
I figured out that the only muscle that's really holding back from muscle ups is the extensor muscle on the forearm. Dips are no problem, pull ups are no problem, it's just often the extensor muscle which is underdeveloped and can't bring up the required power to lean forward and push up in a slow controlled muscle up.
Also I'd say that explosive pullups are still cheating, because you're trying to generate explosive acceleration that makes you "fly through" the hard part of the transition, instead of controlling that one completely with your muscles.
Doing muscle ups at 150kg (for reps) would be quite an Olympic accomplishment for me... 😂
Every time I try to muscle-up, I hit the ceiling with my head.
Who film and edit your videos
Informative.
How come crossfit people constantly kip with pull ups?
they don't watch fitnessfaqs.
I was so close to getting my ring muscle up but had to stop training as my golfers elbow was just getting worse and worse. It's a lot better now but I'm scared to set it off again. Are these bad for the elbows even with correct form?
I can do 20 strict pullups and 50 dips but i cant get the muscle up at all even with a band. The band doesn't seem to make any difference...it helps with people who cant pullup but thats not the issue, i cant transition
have you already tried baby muscle ups for transition? 7:11
I am similar, can do 20 pull ups and a 40kg pull up but it took me years to get a muscle up. I think it's because I just grinded out slow sets and reps and never did any explosive training. How are your high pull ups?
@@LittlePatter8 hi there yes i think it could be an issue that i am mused to doing strict pullups with no momentum right under the bar and i need to try and get the bar to my waist. I can do a few bar to chest explosively, max 5-6 reps but cant get bar to waist level
@@ferguslee5343 your grip needs to be a lot more over the bar to transition than normal pull ups, try that as well. Also just load up on loads of bands until it feels ridiculously easy then you can get the feeling of it, you have the strength
@@filiteus6296 thanks for replying...no I've not done those yet just tried full ones using the band which felt more awkward...thanks for feedback will try those!
I’m the guy who can do 17 neutral grip pullups and 13 straight bar pullups and have the most slow twitch muscle fibers on earth meaning I probably only can do one or two explosive pullups
"parallel bar dips" ... Pulls out bars that are obviously not parallel😅 Nonetheless great video. I got the muscleup easily, but I always fail in trying to help people that are more than strong enough to get it.
How do you mix false grip in to a routine? Specifically pull ups?
focus on false grip hanging once you got a decent hang of about 30 seconds to a minute then you should be able to do false grip pull ups easily. Just do a set or two of false grip pull ups alongside your main pull ups in a pull or upper session. I recommend doing false grip pull ups to failure then dropsetting to regular pull ups because a lot of the time for false grip pull ups its the grip that limits the reps so just drop set it once you reach failure on false grip and if you cant do any more pull ups even after you failed the false grip then great job that means your false grip is great
@@zey9083 thank you so much. These are great tips! I will start adding this into my routine this week!
@@zey9083 also should I do the hang sessions pre or post workouts? Thanka
I'd say after. You dont wanna wear your grip out right before you go into a pull workout.
@@zey9083 awesome I'll def do the false pull drop set and start ending with hangs! Much appreciated bro!
“Keep practicing and you’ll get a gorilla grip.”
I think it’s time to have a sit down with my girlfriend.
What blue pants are those?
as a beginner i find it distracting trying to get good at multiple parts at the same time, i spend almost 2h in the gym 4days per week...think i need to shift my focus and do less exercises
The muscle up is equivalent to benching 225 for gym bros. Once you can do it, you’ve officially proved your self.
Definitelly wi
Caution to beginners... that band muscle-up looks like a slingshot to the face waiting to happen 😅💥😵💫
Can fitness faq make a step by step program to help beginners achieve a muscle up?
Just to recap - kipping, chicken wing, creatine.
how im learned muscle-ups ? just like im learned pull-ups, with the help of bouncing to the crossbar

Definitely not a guide for beginners.
what's the best exercise for the middle back, the area just below the backside of the ribcage.
fuck i love the calisthenics community.
look at this great video given to us for free.
thank you good sir!
If I could do a pull up to my belly, I could already do a muscle up. My weakest point is the explosive pull up to the belly. I just can't do it. I can do 15 explosive pull ups, but only to my chest. I can't go lower.
