Question

I have a genuine question for you guys, why is it that when you see a coach asking for advice on skills some of you assume that the coach asking questions should not be a coach because they can’t perform that skill?

I know of so many experienced coaches that are learning handstands or muscle ups and they ask for advice from others that already perform the skill 🥺

I posted my muscle ups here for some technique advice and some of you were so rude telling me how can I be a coach if I can’t fix my muscle ups myself , and I am one of those self made coaches and what not.

Not all coaches are calisthenics coaches ☹️ I am a strenght and conditioning coach, I coach strenght classes, Hyrox classes and sometimes non skill CrossFit classes.

I am still learning my skills, I never coach muscle ups and handstands because I am learning them..I used to post before in this community for advice as an anonymous and your response was so kind, I used to think this group is genuinely welcoming but as soon as I posted from my actual profile, the hate I have received has made me sad 😔

I want to clarify I do NOT coach calisthenics, I am a coach for 7 years and I have all my necessary certifications as well as the education required.

Muscle up help

Can you check my video and tell me if I have enough high for my muscle up, idk why I am not able to rotate on the bar mentally? Is it a mental thing or am I actually not there with my height
