Program 1 — Pull-Up Foundation. - From zero to ten clean pull-ups in four weeks. Assisted reps, negatives, and isometric holds, prescribed set by set. Program 2 — Bar to Muscle-Up. - Ten pull-ups isn't enough. False grip, transitions, explosive pulls, and the first strict muscle-up. Program 3 — Muscle-Up Mastery. - From one to ten unbroken. The conditioning, the volume, and the EMOMs to string sets. What's in the app • A workout player with a rest timer and auto-save on every set. • PR tracking — your pull-up max, your false-grip hold, your longest muscle-up set. • A daily habit log (water, meals, body weight) and a streak you'll want to keep. • A map of outdoor pull-up bars, parallel bars, and rings near you — anywhere in the world the data exists.
