Day 10 of the 12 Days of BADASSNESS

On The Tenth Day of BADASSNESS Travis gave to me…

–> 10 x Muscle Ups

You know they had to be coming at some point right?

The KING of upper body bodyweight movements.

One of the BEST, but also toughest of bodyweight movements a person can do.

Like any other movement, it’s all about PROGRESSION.

The number one key to getting a muscle up is to get strong with your strict chest to bar pull ups and strict dips.  Once you get efficient in both of those movements it’s then all about getting good at the transition.

Here’s the overview video for Day #10…
