Pull up to muscle up

How can I go from one pull up to one muscle up?

Don’t ask vlr

These guys don’t go outside
And neither do I

Going from a pull-up to a muscle-up is less about raw power and more about mastering the "S-curve" trajectory and the transition. Since he's a Cloud9 fan, he’s probably used to high-potential plays that require perfect execution, so you can break it down like a tactical playbook.
Here is how you can explain the progression:

1. The Explosive "Chest-to-Bar" Pull-Up
   A standard pull-up isn't enough. To get over the bar, you need enough momentum to create "weightlessness" at the peak.
   The Goal: Pull the bar down to your lower chest or stomach, not just your chin.
   The Key: Think about pulling the bar down and back rather than pulling yourself up.
2. Master the "C" Curve (The Swing)
   You cannot go straight up; the bar is in the way. You need a slight hollow-body rock to create a path around the bar.
   The Kip: Start with a small initiated swing. As your legs swing forward, drive your knees up and pull back simultaneously. This creates the horizontal space needed to move your torso around the bar.
3. The "False Grip" and the Transition
   The hardest part is the "turnover"—moving from the pull to the dip.
   The Grip: Try resting the base of your palms on top of the bar (False Grip). This shortens the distance your wrists have to rotate during the transition.
   The "Look Over the Wall": Once your chest reaches the bar height, throw your head and shoulders forward aggressively, as if you are trying to look over a wall.
4. The Straight Bar Dip
   Once your torso is over the bar, you’re in the home stretch.
   The Finish: If you can’t do 10-15 deep straight bar dips, you’ll get stuck at the top of the transition. Work on these separately to ensure you can lock out once you get "over the hump."
   Suggested Response for the VLR Thread:
   "It’s all about the 'momentum' (think of it like a coordinated site execute). Stop doing chin-to-bar reps; you need explosive chest-to-bar pull-ups to get the height.
   Also, you can't go in a straight line or you'll hit the bar—swing slightly forward, then pull yourself around it in a C-shape. Once your chest is high enough, lean your shoulders forward fast. If you've got the mechanics down, it’s just a matter of timing the transition. Good luck, hope the gains are more consistent than C9's last split."
   Would you like me to find some specific drill routines or videos you can link him to?

you jump with the pull up until you make it

u need to make 10 pull ups consistently first before attempting a muscle up

do weight training instead of calisthenics

Do negatives, then do assisted aswell.

Btw I’m doing this because I am a wrestler
