    For those of you who are focusing on the kipping Muscle-Up, make sure to start the kip and the pull at the exact same time. And don’t be scared to move your knees towards your chest with some power. But remember that the power is coming from your hips, not the knees. As a trick you can try to imitate the way you would kick a soccer-ball (just try the movement standing and feel how the power comes from the hips, even if the knee is bending). This is what you want to do when the momentum reverses. This video didn’t go into much detail on how to kip exactly, maybe I’ll do this in another video if there is interest 😊

    Can you feel which muscles are really involved to do a muscle up? In videos it’s never apparent.

    • @jacobcalisthenics
      @jacobcalisthenics  Год назад +3

      Hey man. In the pulling part of the movement, the primary muscles are the lats and biceps- but the core and forearms are also big factors (the entire body is fully tensed). In the transition and dip, the primary focus switches to the triceps, front delts and chest. As a whole the Muscle Up involves every muscle group in the upper body 💪

  • @JeffKastner

    I just recently achieved my first one and I’m up to 4 now in about 2 1/2 months. I am super reliant on the kip though. Is it just a matter of getting enough reps in over the next few months to straighten the legs out or should I be focusing on anything else to make that happen? (uploaded a short on my feed if it helps critique)

    • @jacobcalisthenics
      @jacobcalisthenics  Год назад +1

      Hey man. The short answer is yes. A lot of high volume sessions with kipping reps, and then, as soon as you can, you start kipping with straight legs (which tecnically is called a hip drive). The technique of a hip drive muscle up has more transferability into the clean muscle up, so that's the next step.

      I either brace with a hollow body and hold my breath through the pull (typically for 1rm) or exhale as the pull begins (better for multiple rep). I explain how I brace in my setup vid 💪

    • @jacobcalisthenics
      @jacobcalisthenics  4 месяца назад

      It can be a really frustrating cycle when your calluses keep ripping, because they don’t have enough time to recover between sessions. For me personally, I use protection pads and sports tape when it gets bad. But normally, I do my top sets with semi false grip and no pads. And then I switch to a neutral grip (hanging by the fingers) in my volume sets to spare my hands. I have some recommendation for callus protection in my Equipment guide video 💪
