Carl, Thank you for this video! I watched it twice and then practiced and I completed my first muscle-up!!! I kept practicing and was able to keep it going. This served as a great early Christmas gift.

Thanks Coach Carl! I watched

Thanks Coach Carl! I watched this video late last night, dreamt I was doing it, woke up thinking I did it, then grabbed the rings first thing this morning and got my first strict muscle-up as easy as anything on the first attempt! I couldn't believe it was so easy once I changed the angle of the body. Been showing off and doing them all day today! Awesome coaching! Thanks so much.

<p>Ditto Alec - after

<p>Ditto Alec - after flailing with kips for awhile, watched this, visualized doing the strict muscle up before bed, then made it happen on my fourth try the next morning.   Thanks for the great tips!</p>
