Muscle Up World Records

Gym Director Cy Platt of the Victory Gymnastics Academy performed 10 muscle-up exercises while wearing a snorkeling mask, snorkel, and fins. The record was set during National Gymnastics Day 2013 at the Victory Gymnastics Academy in San Diego, California.

Bailey H. performed 14 muscle-ups.

Christopher K. completed five reps of a muscle-up, back flip, and burpee exercise combination in 30 seconds.

Arthur did 107 muscle-ups without coming off the bar in a 34-minute set at his gym in Christchurch, New Zealand, filmed in one uncut take by a phone on the floor while other members trained around him. A muscle-up takes the body from hanging below a bar to holding it up above the bar, and Arthur swung each one up with a knee tuck, then rested on top between reps, sometimes for close to a minute. His rules banned touching the ground and chicken-wing reps, where one elbow hooks over the bar before the other, and RecordSetter counted every rep on his original phone file. He shares his climb from a single chicken-wing muscle-up to this set on his YouTube channel, Arthur's Fitness.

Spencer W. performed six consecutive muscle-up exercises.
