Info

• Muscle-up is one of the most effective exercise that takes a ton of strength in order to build upper body strength.
• Pull the body until the chin clears the bar or above the rings. And complete it by lowering your body until shoulder and arms are completely extended.
• Muscle-up exercises can also be performed by hanging on the pull bar bar with the thumbs on the top of the bar.
• Muscles targeted
  •  Lats
• Other Muscles
  • Abdominals, Biceps, Forearms, Middle Back, Shoulders, Traps, Triceps

Tips

• To make Muscle-upexercise challenging, add weight using dipping belt or either hold the dumbbell with your feet.
• Try to keep the rings closer to your body as possible.
• Catch the ring with false grip (thumbs on the top) and tighten your gut.
• The closer the rings with your body the easier the muscle-up

Warnings

• Do not perform Muscle-up exercise if you are just a beginner of cross fit exercise or if you have less confidence.  Since, Muscle-up is one of the most advance movements in CrossFit, but also it is the most rewarding exercise.
• Do not go directly to advance Muscle-up, first be comfortable with the standard Muscle-up(without holding any weight)
• Do not allow your body to rotate –keep your legs stationary during the movement.
