Why the handstand might take longer 🤸:
The handstand requires both shoulder strength and full body tension, but balance is what ties it all together. That's also why it might take longer: even if your strength is there, your nervous system still has to adapt to a completely new position, and that process takes consistent time and repetition ⚡
Why the muscle up might take longer 💪:
The muscle up is built on two things: pulling strength and pushing strength. If those aren't there yet, it can feel out of reach regardless of how much technique you work on, strength is the foundation. But if your pull-ups and dips are already solid, the main thing missing is the transition technique ⚡
Both skills are absolutely learnable, it just depends on your foundation how long it takes 🤝
