Hey Everyone
I got a question about the position of the thumb while try doing muscle ups. I think its a lot easier to do muscle ups when i put the thumb over the bar instead of under the bar. Is it important to put the thumb over the bar or doesn't it matters.
Salute

I would advice you to do the muscle up with thumbs under it, because with this way you can get a better grip, but when it works for you better with thumbs over you can do it like this way. Salute!

Putting your thumb over the bar is easier and is used for beginners of the muscle up. I would suggest putting your thumb over the bar for getting used to the motion and form. Later, you would have to switch your grip to putting your thumb under the bar, which is in fact the proper form, for better grip. BE THE BEST YOU CAN BE!!! BarBrothers ALL DAY EVERYDAY!!! Salute!!!
