    I just did my first muscle ups today. I'm 47 years old and it took me 6 months but I got them. Watching your muscle up videos helped get me motivated.

      tubehax that was not a muscle up. That's what we call shoulder snappers, really bad for the shoulders and you learn the wrong technique.

    I really like the way you teach things, you're just clear when you talk and you give different ways to do things and give your opinion on them. I liked how you said "you won't fall so don't worry about that" its nice for someone to reassure beginners because I'm sure a lot of people may have been a little scared by that, but yeah, you're awesome :)

    I can do a legit one arm chin up and I have watched many muscle up tutorials on youtube, but I have great difficulty doing muscle ups be it on rings or bars. I have been trying to do muscle ups for months to no avail, but after seeing your video, I did my first ever muscle up in my life on a bar with momentum today, and then did another 6 easily without momentum. Your technique really works thanks alot!!! I love all your vids.

    finally!! i did one!! it took me a week, i was hoping to do it in two weeks because thats how long my break is and wanted to get it in that time, i was so determined to do it... got discouraged many times as i failed... i tried again and again, untill i got one arm by one arm, i was so happy! :P, but knew it wasnt a proper muscle up, i kept trying so hard untill i got it earlier today. btw i could do 22 proper form pullups, it took me 2months to get from 4pullups to 22. good luck guys! :)

  • @MusicSlaveAlien
    @MusicSlaveAlien 11 років тому

    Great tutorial.! Just to clarify something...
    The perfect time to twist the wrists up is exactly after the moment that your body is moving up with at the highest speed. At this exact moment the elbows are at the same level with the bar and the time that you change from pulling to pushing. It's when you put the least of your weight on the bar.

  • @TheF0rtress
    @TheF0rtress  12 років тому

    Ouch, I've never experienced such. Please rest and do not put any strain on it. It happened from weak joints (obviously, as you know), your joints strengthen when they are used with light-moderate exercise. That is why I recommend doing 20-25 good form pullups before beginning the muscle up - that way your joints can take the pressure.

    I didn't say slow. If I was capable of doing a slow rise pull-up to my stomach then I'd be more than capable of doing a muscle up. BTW I actually did my first muscle up three days ago. I'm now at two in a row before I can no longer do the transition from pull up to dip. Paul is the one that inspired me to start doing bar workouts and other calisthenics so THANK YOU PAUL.

  • @KasioDFVds

  • @funkdified1
    @funkdified1 12 років тому

    The kind of training that you do is very much what is needed to be a fantastic arm wrestler. A lot of isometric holds and pullups (especially one handed) not only produce muscle but also make the tendons in the arm extremely strong. Using more of the palm of your hand for those muscle ups also make your forearms and wrists (and again, wrist tendons) very strong. You ought to look into the serious side of arm wrestling.
