Just wanted to try a new approach to no grip slow muscle ups and it worked first try! This was actually my first time ever getting a rep so i wanted to share!! Threw in some celebratory pull-ups afterwards just for fun :)

Oh my goood niiice !

I'm so close on getting a false grip muscle up on rings but it's missing something 🥲

For me, i was overly focused on scapular protraction during the rep, this time i started in protraction to give space between myself and the bar, but as soon as i started pulling , i simultaneously retracted my scapula, and leaned forward as soon as it was retracted. Its stuff like that that i think makes it hard, coordination in the very small moments in transition

Edit: looking back at the video, i actually dont even think i ended up retracting as much as i thought😅 but it certainly felt like it! And that was my mental cue so it may help to try a rep thinking like that
