Sternford Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 I'm not sure if this should be in rings or basic strength section, but how does the muscle up on bars compare to on rings? The technique looks a bit different since the bar keeps you from leaning forward, but otherwise is it harder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Naterman Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 If done slowly and without momentum, swing, OR kip the bar is much harder than the rings. Otherwise ring variations are harder.At least, that's been my experience and that has been what people who actually know say, so there we go lol!

Gregor Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 For me it's the same if we are talking about norlmal MU on rings. On rings you can do extreemly wide arm MU and that is much more harder then on a bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sternford Posted August 7, 2010 Author Share Posted August 7, 2010 Ah, so being able to do one on rings doesn't mean you could on bar, but it's a start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregor Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 yes. Usualy it's a technique problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Libke Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I can do a decent MU on the rings from a dead hang. I can't do the same on the bar, for the life of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairbob Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Have you tried using a false grip on bar? From a dead hang, without a false grip requires a high pullup that has to be able to transition into the wrist shift easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
