this is my muscle up, what version is? i don't use a really progression, i start with the idea of "no kipping".

After a month with a pulley sytem i can do a single muscle up with 8 kg. After i tried to do front lever (with false grip) to muscle up, and inverted piked hang to muscle up and i didn't have any problem.

My only question is if my form is correct and where i can improve it...

thankssss :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

That's a very nice muscle-up, my friend. Very inspiring. You must have been in very good shape before beginning your practice, because most people can't learn it that quick. I can't do one yet.

My one piece of advice about form would be to rotate you wrist outward during the support so that your inner elbows are pointing forward slightly. I see you rotated your wrists toward a rather neutral grip. It's important to do this for all ring supports :)

Good stuff!

thanks...i know that my support position isn't correct, but i have a little discomfort to my inner elbow, without the "turninng the rings out" i don't hear any pain...so i stop to do the orrect position for 2-3 weeks
