Calisthenics Unity

Hi Christian! I just bought the workplan program and am starting on level 6. I could do all the exercises on level 6 except for negative muscle up.

Following your video tutorial, I started at the top position. When I came down, I was unable to slowly lower myself using a steady speed. Instead, I dropped down fast. I guess I am really weak.

Do you have any tips for someone like me trying to learn a muscle up? Will I be able to improve my negatives by constantly trying to do negative muscle ups? Thanks!

Go a few levels back. That's what you do when you failed a level. Then you'll build up the strength to do it.

And of course you'll improve your negatives if you keep doing them. 👊

Thanks! I will keep doing negatives for muscle ups.

Yes, just keep going a few levels back and then push even harder when you get to that level again, remember! Muscle-ups are extremely hard and it is one of the absolute hardest (if not THE HARDEST!) exercise there is. This does not mean that you are weak, it only means that you have room for improvement, and that my dear friend, that is pure motivation! Level up!
