Muscle Up
-About
This is an upper body power and technique exercise combining pull-ups and dips.
How to Muscle Up
Starting Position
1. Grab the pull-up bar at shoulder width and start hanging with your arms fully extended.
2. Give your torso a slight tension and prepare to swing lightly.
Proper Form
1. Pull up strongly so that your chest gets close to the bar.
2. Lean your upper body forward and transition your hands above the bar.
3. Like in a dip movement, push your arms to lift your body above the bar.
4. Slowly come down and return to the hanging position.
Breathing Technique
Exhale when pulling your body strongly, and inhale while coming down.
Precautions
1. Warm up your shoulders and elbows sufficiently before attempting.
2. Practice step by step at a level where pull-ups and dips are stable.
