However, the ring muscle-up can be performed without starting from an L-sit position. <br><br>Regardless of how you begin though, you're legs will probably have to go out in front at the beginning of the transition from pull-up to dip. Kipping can be done on the rings, although if you kip too hard the rings are going to swing a lot, making the move more challenging. Hope that makes sense.

I just started working on ring dips and have yet to try any ring pull-ups so I know I have a ways to go but I'm gonna set the goal for the end of the year but if I don't make it I'll shoot for early in 2011. I was happy to see this info on the rings since my bar is too close to the ceiling to do a muscle up.<br><br>I'm loving the journey and the fact that progress is so easily measured.

Can you get an L-sit pull-up yet? That sounds like a reasonable time line. Can you get an L-sit pull-up yet?

I have a set of rings and will continue to put the work in and hopefully I'll get a muscle up under my belt by the end of the year. I'll use this post as a guide. Awesome!

Once you get better at pull-ups then we can start talking about muscle-ups. It's a good long term goal. :) Thanks, Jeff. Once you get better at pull-ups then we can start talking about muscle-ups.
