This stuff is unreal, it's always amazing to see these guys in action. Parkour is becoming so beautiful it should really be turned into a competitive sport
I believe that turning parkour into a competetive sport would just make it to another physical sport, and it would loose it's true meaning about selfprogression, not training for others (e.i. crowds, spectators), and the motto ''to be and to last'' would also fade away. Also, it would be very hard to measure who's the best, since it's also about being helpfull to ppl, improving yourself not only in parkour, challanging yourself, being creative etc.
@BlacksVideos Skateboarding has gone through that transformation, but the experience of chilling with a bunch of other beginners in the afternoon hasn't changed in the slightest. The average skater doesn't learn it to impress people. The ones that do are the first give up because it's just fucking hard, everything you attempt looks pathetic for weeks if not months. If parkour becomes a competitive sport regular people will be aware of it and that will make training a lot less awkward :)
@gyenming i used 6's when i started and there were alot of down sides like low ankle support and after awhile all my landings hurt, so far inov8 is a ton better so i'd recommend them. Inov-8 f-lite 305pk is a really really good one
some people were talking about what's the best parkour shoe I think it's the ariake because they might not be as good grip on concrete as the five ten freerunners but the five tens won't stick to any metal and the ariake gas good grip on everything its just not as great on concrete as the five tens.
yo dude grip from hanging in a pull up kind of position is all in the forearm strength as well as the biceps (if your arms are bent) and in the upper back muscles (posterior deltoids, rhomboids, latissimus dorsi) if you type these in google i bet there will be plenty of excercises there for you if you work on strengthening your back Biceps and forearms your hanging grip will greatly improve ^_^
If you get blisters dont touch them keep doing pull ups and everything and youll get blisters and once youve done a lot you wont have any blisters and strong grippy hand
Schools and kindergardens got lots of 'instruments' used to play with, but with some fantasy, they are great for training parkour, go there after schooltime and check it out.
Well, you're right, but as long the metal isnt wet, you will only need a 'normal' rubber sole. Most rubber will have a good grip on the most metal-arts.
you know what i found out about parkour? that it makes ur body fitter and really fast i started parkour 3 weeks ago and i'm alot fitter now then i was before starting parkour :)

omg near where i live thers is like 5 skools and like 5 play griounds im suited for training but for parkour i go city my area is shhit for that only good for traiining
just look for any kids playground around you and be creative. I go to a local kids playground to exercise a lot and its just your average playground, I just find exercises to do and mess around with it and keep it fun and a great workout. just look around, i'm sure you'll find something to work with
Just start with simple exercises like push ups, sit ups, and that exersize that you are aganst the wall and pretending to sit down but without the chair kind of thing. and like ofr example push ups, start with 10 then move up to maybe 15 each week.set a reasonable goal each time, push yourself but dont push yourself too far. after that could try like chin ups to get over walls, i had troble with getting over walls for about a few months so yeah just keep trying.
Pull-ups. If you cannot do pull-ups, then do "negatives" where you stand on a chair to help yourself up to where your head is above the pull-up bar, then you let yourself down without the chair, very slowly.
hey awwesome video liked it very much :D i may try strentgh training at my local park although there are usually quite a few chavs round there so im not sure lol

comfortable runners. if you can, try to get the grips in a horitzontal direction. helps with grip. a nice toe grip is helpful too~

running shoes, the ones with huge soles at the back
12345lee1 2 years ago
you don't want huge soles, it desensitizes you from the landing and promotes poor technique by allowing you to do jumps that you aren't ready to do.
