In this episode, both of the host Jackerman and Fren sit down and talk about the muscle-up. Which most people haven’t even heard of until they walk into the box, and is viewed by many when you get your Muscle-up you get your “Crossfit Card”. The muscle-up (MU) is a movement that transitions from a hanging position below the rings to a supported position, arms extended, above the rings. It is a combination movement containing both a pull-up and a dip. Far from a contrivance, the muscle-up is hugely functional. With a muscle-up, you’ll be able to surmount any object on which you can get a finger hold–if you can touch it, you can get up on it. The value here for survival, police, firefighter, and military use is impossible to overstate. They discuss the practical application of the MU in classes.  From teaching it to scaling it appropriately, to helping members improve and string multiple together.  You are only as limited as your imagination.  Throughout this episode we dip into other topics, such as the art of coaching, keeping classes of different abilities engaged, and of course, we share plenty of funny and entertaining muscle-up stories.
