Achieving your first muscle up is a serious feat of strength. However, the journey to master the muscle up doesn’t stop there – in fact, it’s only the beginning. 

Muscle up is a strength move, which, during the past decade, has become a notorious strength feat to showcase physical prowess.

The strength of the rotator cuff plays a key, major role in the muscle up. The transition phase of the muscle up is a heavy internal rotation of the scapula.

Elbow mobility is often the missing link between lack of progress and performing a clean muscle up.

In the muscle up, you are as strong as your weakest link. If you’re lacking wrist strength, then performing a strict muscle up can seem almost hopeless.
