Today i tried a new little combo which i thought was fun and worth sharing with you guys.

Shoulder Stand - Lower to Inverted Hang - Muscle Up - Repeat

A couple of sets of this could be a nice finisher for a workout.

i agree with you...i've tried it about 2 weeks a go and is a very very great variation..to increase the difficult when you do the slow down into inv hang...go in front lever and after do the muscle up.......so if you are very strong you can also try this....

shoulder stand ->slow down into maltese bent arms -> roll forward into fl -> MU....very great challenge..

shoulderstand-->back to inverted hang-->inverse muscle up-->repeat :mrgreen:

Nice vid/routine. Unfortunately I'm not able to do a shoulder stand yet but looks awesome.

Yep, that sounds challenging.

Let's file that one under long term goals.

nice conrtol on those negatives! ive tried something similar before: shoulderstand - lower to backlever - pull to muscle up - repeat

too much DOMS for me though, how do you feel the day after?

Feeling pretty fresh today, no DOMS.

Your variation sounds hard. First the negatives put a lot stress on your biceps. Followed by a big biceps stretch from the BL. All that eccentric work sounds like a great recipe for DOMS.

Also keeping the false grip while going into and out of BL is tough!

Good work Greg! This looks great, excellent control :) Something to work towards for me
