[MrThefreakout]

@xbox360freak40 i went here yesterday and i could pretty much say yes to your answer...i'm prety sure anybody can go there...:D

[stewie144]

[xxxREDOXxxx]

that japanese woman will be the next Faith

[killerhippo10]

what is parkour? seroiusly...

[SticktheFigure]

killerhippo10, I weep for you. A good place to learn is americanparkour, and they have a website. I'd tell you, but the full def. is to long for youtube.

[Darrell064]

it's basically using your'e eyes to find the path of and obstical course then getting to point 'A' to point 'B' in the quickest way...

[xxageofconanfanxx]

This is a honest question im asking for personel preference.

Do you have to be lightweight, as in skinny, not heavy, ETC to do parkour? can you be well muscled and around 190 pounds? i work out quite alot so im wondering if its possible to do parkour being so heavy.

[homelessbadger]

yes and u will be good as if u work out u will have god muscles to pull yourself up on top of things and run up walls and get good jumps and u will probally be ble to withstand drops and jumps and fals in the rare caser you mite hurt urself but otherwise you are more or less perfect for parkour

[xxageofconanfanxx]

thanks.

[TheMonkeyVault]

we got all shapes and sizes that train with us... i dont think ive met a person yet thats walked into the training centre that cant train parkour.

[thisgiraffeisred]

@TheMonkeyVault

you will meet that person who cant if i walk in buddy.

[SticktheFigure]

Anyone can do parkour.

[xxxREDOXxxx]

you need to have a perfect body for it, it means you have to have muscles otherwise you will not have enough force to do a high jump for example, but you have to be lightwright too, then like that you can make smooth jumps and stunts

[kinjk]

@xxageofconanfanxx Free Running's for anyone willing to train hard enough, probably the 3 most needed assets is shoulder,back n leg strength. I wouldn't worry too much about being too muscular as long as ur flexible enough to do what u c.

[ballinbalen]

@xxageofconanfanxx look up 3runtube

and find a video of sam barham. that could be you slugger, that could be you. =]

[SolidCobra117]

@xxageofconanfanxx Well I'm about 177lbs and I do parkour just fine. The only problem is that Im not as lightweight so I have to build more muscle to do parkour then a lightweight person would. I still have to work on my upper body and my knee and wrist still give me trouble. But if you're truly adament about it it wont matter.

[manonmercy]

@xxageofconanfanxx On the contrary a well built guy will do better than a skinny guy.

[antkcuck]

@xxageofconanfanxx yes you can

[tommyk1347]

I went to monkey vault a couple of weeks ago for the training session, MY GOD IT WAS AWESOME!!! haha, gonna go again next week.

[Toxicaligator]

I love kettle bells

[DarkAlphabetZoup]

I'm coming to Monkey Vault probably today or tomorrow. The girl at the end did make me think about Faith, and she was pretty good. All of you guys were awesome, good to know that all you guys are "still alive"!

[0O0BakuganSpieler0O0]

It was fantastic... *.*

[Aganinst17]

[Ziggyanna]

Anyone wanna tell me the name of this song?

[BillyKidmann]

it's the mirrors edge theme

[TheMonkeyVault]

Music : Lisa Miskovsky - The Theme from Mirrors Edge (Radio edit)

[Ziggyanna]

True, thanks. Where is this gym?

[ghostoftheabyss3]

LOL typical danno at about 3:34 with the punishment

[Trac3ur92]

Great gym! I would love to check it out sometime.

[ArmageddonsRevenge]

hey lovely vid 5* but at the start how did you write Saturday 15 Nov in the mirrors edge font?

[TheMonkeyVault]

its a normal font that's just made red ;)

[ArmageddonsRevenge]

may I please ask which font it was

[TheMonkeyVault]

This is the editor of the video speaking : it took a while to figure out the font used, but the one i used that's very similar to "Mirror's Edge" font is "Arial" all i did was squeeze it just a bit so it looks like the correct font.

[Cthulhoid]

The real one is Helvetica.

[Psycho888999]

Can anybody tell me the price of admission for this place?

[TheMonkeyVault]

Goto the website listed and give them a call and show them you are serious about training. Instead of being half serious on the internet... asking random questions.... on youtube. ;)

[Microrator]

Should be alot more training like this done !

[brwyatt2]

"Danger: Do Not Climb" lolz

[xxxREDOXxxx]

that's something that should never be in a PARKOUR GYM

[kibal4ish]

Can't believe I missed that!

Miss you all in PKTO, hopefully see you soon!

[ghosyfilms]

Hey Dan

Great to see the Monkey Vault up and running. Sweet video man.

[TheMonkeyVault]

You should pass by sometime and come jump around!

[jusres]

OMFG I HATE YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!

LOL the ropes in the weight room, so awesome hahaha.

[Piets8]

aww.. I wish i could have made it that day.. Too bad my knee was still messed up then

[FredSk8PrO]

What's funny is that Mirror's Edge actually features true Parkour (runs from A to B as fast and efficient as possible), so a Mirror's Edge obstacle course + Parkour is, well, twice as much as Parkour lol.

GREAT video, great ambiance, you guys seems to have a heck of a load of fun, which is all that matters.

And yes, every video featuring this song is automatically amazing anyway.

[TheMonkeyVault]

Fun is the whole point!

Training should definitely be taking seriously, but it can be very fun at the same time.

If you aren't having fun in your training, you have to really question why you are doing what you do.

[FredSk8PrO]

That's right :) Serious + Fun = GREAT.
