Muscle Ups Arent Impressive

Blows my mind how normies get impressed by muscle ups when its just a technique movement with mediocre hypertrophy

Pull ups> muscle ups

Its a lame party trick to impress a bunch of clueless normies

Sure. You wouldn't train using them, but being able to do them demonstrates a good power to weight ratio and strength over a joint range which is difficult to train.

Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.

I’m glad you appreciate my humor.

But I make those threads for me, I get off on it kind of. But that’s because I Enjoy geeks like you fantasizing about being better than me. Legit rock hard at people looking down on me.

Let’s you really see how people are before they start sucking up and acting fake.

I'm not saying whether I'm better than you or not, but I definitely dress better than you.

lol @ being a grown man and not knowing how to dress yourself with clothes that fit, we elementary school now?

Most of us, at least at some point, workout to impress people.

Most people can't even do 1 deadhang pullup. Just technique is not going to let them do a muscleup

Of course a muscle up is going to be impressive to them.

Still mostly agree that it's a party trick though.
