My Path to Muscle Up and Beyond
A few years ago I could do one ugly pull-up. I wanted a muscle-up and had no idea how to get there. So I built The Skill Path — and this page is where I'm actually doing it, in public.
It writes itself as I train. Every belt I earn captures a snapshot of where I was — the real sessions, the real progress, the real stalls. Nothing here is staged. I haven't gotten the muscle-up yet. When I do, this page will show it.
What you'll find: The real path from pull-up to muscle-up
Every belt I earn in The Skill Path freezes a snapshot of my training at that moment — the exact rep ranges, hold times, session structure, and which skills I had unlocked. It's a complete record of what works and what doesn't, captured automatically as I train.
The page below pulls those snapshots live. Scroll to see where I started (one ugly pull-up, no skills), the belt-by-belt progression toward muscle-up, the actual session-by-session work the app gave me, and where I am right now.
About The Skill Path
The Skill Path is a bodyweight-strength progression app built around the calisthenics journey: muscle-up, planche, front lever, handstand, splits, pistol squat, and beyond. It starts with an assessment, builds personalized sessions around your level, and tracks every rep so the next session targets exactly where you need to grow.
