BRTHE SECRET for muscle ups 🤫
There’s no secret.
There’s no magic “do X to get Y” in this case.
It starts with building a lot of strength in the pullup pattern and the primary muscles involved… Lats, biceps, posterior deltoid. In my experience, people usually need 15 consecutive reps before they’re able to hit a muscle up (however this does vary person to person).
You also need good mobility in the wrists and shoulders.
Chase the pullup and mobility first. Snag the low hanging fruit.
After you hit the pullup … start trying the muscle up.
Guess what?
You won’t be an expert on rep 1.
I tried and failed at hitting it more times than I could count.
Eventually I succeeded.
Once I did…. I kept doing as much as I could.
2 reps a set became 3, 3 became 4, and so on…
.
Embrace those failures and the times you come up short…. Because it’ll make your victory that much better.
And don’t look for a cheat code in the process. Cheating the system only cheats yourself in the end.
