Hello Caliathletics fam! Today I wanted to share with you another guide for the skill that is Muscle up. Actually what limit most of the people is lack of ability to pull high during pull ups. Watch till the end to find out how to improve it! My program: caliathletics.com 1on1 online coaching darekcaliathletics@gmail.com IG: @caliathletics_
Set up a Decline Bench by a low cable pulley. Connect the Wide Lat bar that's usually connected to the Pulldown. Work on Pullovers with this setup -- focusing mostly on the further range where the bar passes the chest. These are the sticking point muscles for most people, and they're very difficult to directly target any other way.
Great muscle up tutorial! One of the greatest on RU-vid! Darek, your explanation about the swing and acceleration helps me to unlock muscle up without resistance band. Thanks so much for you!
This is the first muscle up tutorial that says negatives are useless for achieving the muscle up, and based on my own personal experience I whole heartedly agree with it. I never understand why all the other tutorials out there put so much emphasis on negatives.
Been watching your videos for the past 2 weeks and I’m already doing around 20 pull ups, push ups, chin ups and dips Thanks Derek, you encouraged me to start doing calisthenics and have a better body (i’m kinda skinny :s) Keep up the Good work buddy
@@azozfs5330 Good to hear, even tho the 4kg you are referring to is actually total mass(muscle, fat, water weight, digested food, etc), not just muscle mass. Keep it up bro👍
I wasn’t able to do a dip or a pull-up earlier this year. But now I can do about 15 dips and 7 pull ups at my best. I can’t believe I’m getting pretty close to being able to do a muscle up
@@tacotodd398 Man I hate when I find these type of comments when the person is close to doing something but never answears back to say if he accomplished it or not lol
This tutorial was awesome, I am in a point that almost have it, but I think that I should work my high pull ups instead of trying to get the muscle up directly
Talk about giving the fans ( viewers ) what they want , ;ast week I ask for this video and then you make it in a week time . Thank you so much . In Your opinion Darek what is the best way to integrate High pullups into your work out I.e frequency , sets and reps . I normally do about 5 sets of 3-4 reps as a warmup for normal or weighted pull ups .
You are like the only calisthenics channel that actually shows how to implement skills into workouts and tells you how to create a solid routine unlike Chris Heria and others. Don't get me wrong, i love Chris but i don t think he realises what people actually need to know. Keep up the good work dude!
I finally perform one muscle up in the gym,but only sometimes. I found out it is much more difficult to perform muscle up on straight bar than those with a space in front of my chest.
Nice editing skills Darek! Also man, Im also learning muscle ups, true man, the best technique for the muscle up, is the swing itself which will bring you on top and over the bar. Keep doing videos like this bro!
Darek, zajebisty tutorial, dziękuję bardzo za motywację, wspieram całym sercem. Bardzo podoba mi się że prowadzisz kanał po angielsku, globalnie, szacun stary za inicjatywę!
The set up I’ve used to learn muscle ups is a mounted pull up in my room with gymnast rings. Due to the lack of cracking height I was forced to learn with rings which meant no kipping. After getting up to about 5 consecutive L sit ring muscle ups I was sure it would be a breeze to hit a bar muscle up. Wrong. There was a learning curve so I started going back to basics. Came across this video that emphasized the timing aspect. Hugely helpful. I will definitely be practicing high pull ups now. Great video. Thanks for the help!
One day I will get this. I am up to 12 strict pull ups. Have to start working on the timing and explosiveness however. The explosiveness kinda goes away at 48 years old however. Been doing some weighted pull ups to build it back up.
@@gethnoble4316 Now I am 52 and still no muscle ups. Admittingly, I have not been working at it that much. Pull ups are going well still.Keep going man!
For seniors that are attempting to revisit pullups and muscle ups. Our problem is that we have probably, 1. Have lost some muscle mass and 2. We have shrinkage of the muscle length. This was told to me by a Chinese martial arts teacher. So he told me with regard to pull ups , and to avoid injuries. Start by hanging and holding that hang for minutes if possible. Apparently it reminds the muscle to lengthen out. After a couple of weeks of that exercise then you start to introduce pulling. Take your time figure out your limitation based on quality of form. But real strength comes from full range of motion . Complete smooth full range. Ehh, what ah do I know.....😊
You forgot about a the grip. An over grip will make it easier but it takes more wrist strength bc it hurts your wrist and palm, you’ll get used to it after a while tho
Going to try the trampoline technique to clean up my MUs and do more weighted pullups and explosive high pullups to pump those numbers. Thanks for the video, +1
Sir make a video to wrong pushup and how to do in right way to hit each muscle to start calathetics sir and even how to do wide pushups in right way to hit chest triecps and many more make a video sir plz sir
I will love to answer your question would you mind checking.out my Instagram it's @stuntfitness I post alot of fitness advice any questions your more then welcome to contact me there
Great, but how to achieve high pull-ups that is the question? I can barely do 2 chest to bar with good form. And belly button to bar is impossible to me. Also, I can do 14 pull ups at the moment. Guess I will have to lose 10kg to be light as he is to be able to perform the muscle up.
need more work on normal pull ups.done 20 pull ups with short range of motion but now I'm doing a full dead hang and it's so much harder. Need to do at least 15 before I even think abotu muscle up. I can do 1 high pull up. Highest I've pulled up to is lower chest.
