What is the Muscle Up?

The Muscle Up is an advanced strength and technique exercise, combining a pull-up and a dip to allow the athlete to move above a bar. It intensely engages the upper body, particularly the back muscles, shoulders, arms, and stabilizing muscles.

How to properly perform the Muscle Up

  1. Start by hanging from a pull-up bar with a false grip (wrists over the bar).
  2. Pull your body up explosively while leaning forward.
  3. As you reach the top, transition your chest over the bar.
  4. Push down to complete the dip position.
  5. Lower yourself back down in a controlled manner.
  6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
