A couple of points that I found helped me when I finally learned these on a bar were to try and focus on keeping your elbows in tighter to your sides and to pull your shoulder-blades together powerfully as the main thrust of the pull. Good tutorial Demon, keep it up!

Thank you so much for posting this, I do it ALOT in actual parkour (at least similar moves) but I never really thought about practicing them individually. Once I got around to practicing them I was amazed how much strength it took, and almost instantly I recognized a difference in my wall climbs.
Current Self-record: 9 muscle ups in a row (I know its small, but I just started practicing these like 4 days ago.)

id say 9 muscle-ups in a row is good to say you only started practicing 4 days ago. i just went outside and tried a muscle-up from dead hang and could barely do it, took all my strength to just get my right arm up then followed by the left arm. couldnt do a second one at all, although im sure the lop-sided branch i was using didnt help. i started practising them a couple of days ago, so i congratulate you on being able to do 9 in a row already...

I'm impressed. You come from a sport that requires a lot of upper body strength? |

Are you sure? If so thats pretty ridiculous because I just beat my record today and it was 3 but I got 5 today. However this is on a round bar. What did you do these muscle ups on? I would be very impressed if you can do 9 in a row because Demon who can do 52 pullups straight can do like 11 muscle ups on rings so thats why I might be a little skeptical.

Well, endurance pullups.. 15-20+.. doesn't really correlate well with muscle ups really. That's more of a strength-endurance issue when you're around 10 or so. The transition is easily the most draining part of a muscle up and it more resembles a shoulder extension movement which is overall very weak in terms of shoulder movments. In general in the scheme of muscle ups it goes something like this: deadhang bar > deadhang rings > kipping rings > kipping bar where deadhang bar is the hardest. I can do somewhere around 10 of them and my deadhang muscle ups are somewhere between 12-15... kipping is just really easy and only depends on lactic acid thresholds for when it gets too hard. It depends how he did them (kip vs non-kip.. and there is a significant difference), and if he comes from a sport (like gymnastics) that requires a lot of upper body strength and endurance. That can easily explain it. |

Today, I came pretty close to doing one. I finally realized what was meant by "pull and lean forward at the top."
I can currently do about 10 pull-ups and 10 dips, without weight (I weigh 170#).
