Bismillah. Know your limits to exceed your limits. Learn to embrace your current capability and slowly build up from there. Don't try to jump to another level just to try to look good or be cool with the trend. Ego lifting doesn't exist only in the gym. You can mask it in the gym but it gets exposed in calisthenics.
So don't be afraid to start from basic or retract to an easier version before advancing forward. For an example, if your muscle ups are still chicken winging or still doing excessive swinging and kip ups, then retract to an easier version where you can do an actual proper form. Either by using a jumping supported version or using bands to support. No shame in doing so. No use training improperly and in the end develop an improper final product. Or worse, you are not even training your body properly. Aesthetics is not the only end game.
Please, in whatever aspects like religion, fitness, work, life etc, start doing small things, in proper form and in consistency. Don't just aim to hit big but in the end it's for a wrong intention, can cause a negative after effect or ultimately be redundant/not productive at all. Never be ashamed of small steps and going back to strengthen previous steps/foundation. Baarakallahu feekum.
