Remember, Korey loved to circuit train ;) that was circuit one :P lol

All jokes aside, thank you guys so much for dedicating this to my broski Korey "bossman" Sarvas :') as well as the kind words in the description :) I glad he was able to impact your lives, as well as the many more people around the globe......crazy thinking he wont be texting me at 2:00 in the morning asking if i want to go train the next day at Margate park lol...but one day on streets of GOLD we will train again :)

[DanielSamek]

On Saturday 17/12 we did workout in Korey's honor. 2 people did 31 back tuck burpees, the rest did 31 burpee tuck jumps and most of them did more series.

R.I.P. Korey Sarvas

[MrGhoatsta]

I did this with flipping and landing on four limbs with touching the ground between backflip and burped

[HopscotchPK]

damn, that kid is a boss

[gensesh]

If you cant do 30 back flips do one of the alternative work outs at the end of the video to show your support.

[marjoey96]

I hope no one else does this to get better at parkour or free-running. This is not a good drill. You will wreck your back flip doing it to failure in this way. In no way can I see this making someone strong or better at any sport or activity other than the drill itself.

[DemonDrills]

@jusres You're right and I never said it would make you stronger or better at backflips. It is a metcon workout meaning that it is good conditioning for anyone who already has a solid backflip. We had over 30 people do this and there were no bad crashes or injuries because we all stayed within our limits and took it slow if we felt tired.

[jusres]

@DemonDrills Even as "metabolic conditioning" it doesn't make sense though. What is the purpose of conditioning if not to work towards the demands of a sport such as parkour? Anyways sorry if I came off harsh in my first post, but I don't think this is a good demon drill post, and most people do come to this channel looking for parkour specific exercises and workout advice. I know the whole crossfit philosophy revolves around this kind of stuff, but it doesn't make it good.

[jusres]

@jusres Also sorry if this is inappropriate. I didn't read the description or the intro for the video, nor did I know who Korey Sarvas was. Feel free to delete my posts if you think they are inappropriate. I'm just trying to build an intelligent dialogue about the actual workout performed.

[DemonDrills]

@jusres I pretty much agree. It was more of a fun challenge in honor of a friend than a serious workout. This was the first time doing 30 backflip burpees for all of us and it was a lot of fun but I certainly wouldn't make a habit of conditioning like this.

[jusres]

@DemonDrills Cool. Again sorry if my post was ill-timed/ignorant as I didn't watch everything.

[Kaiparkour]

@DemonDrills why is it not a good workout? I think not every excercise should be parkour-specific? The fact that it will make you stronger, isn't that helping you to get better at parkour in that way?

[J47xx]

RIP Korey

[11ty62]

so did korey invent this or something? like why you guys doing this?

[ColoradoParkour]

@11ty62 Taken from the video description: "Korey Sarvas was a workout fanatic and loved to do flips, so we recently held impromptu workouts at APEX Movement in Boulder, CO and Englewood, CO in his honor. Similar to the CrossFit Hero workouts in which workouts are named after fallen soldiers, we would like to dedicate and name this workout after Korey."

[UrbanMotionFlare]

Done guys, now out of breath :) Name: Billy M-B, UK, 3 mins ish, Jump tuck version. RIP man.

[sonaru4]

if only I could do a backflip, or proper burpee.

[beerfairy]

@sonaru4 a year ago, I could barely do a push up... 6 months ago, I was up to about 6-8 burpees in a row, now I am at around 12 (20 with smaller breaks in between, so this korey workout is going to be tough on me!). you just need to stay on it and keep working out and you will get there! and probably way faster than my old lazy ass! ;)

[TheLifeofCurtisT]

THat was nice! Great job, and I can't do a backflip or a front flip :D Yet!

[ColoradoParkour]

@TheLifeofCurtisT You can still do the workout. Check the description for modified versions of the workout!

[Dimawesome]

one more thing that needs to be done has been created. thanks ^_^

[flyingbake]

30 backflip burpees in 6:15 kicked my ass but I feel great just getting it done

[kdfljgfldghldfgshdfl]

Can someone teach me how to backflip?

[TXSTEPHENTX]

beautiful.

i want to do this workout now.. only for Korey.

R.I.P Korey <3

[Entenzeug]

Great idea I´ll so gonna try that :D

[Lilleralle1]

do you have to land on your feet before the burpee? cant you just land on your hands and feet in push-up position straight away?

[caGh0s7]

@Lilleralle1 You'd probably break your wrists doing that. Just land on your feet :)

[ColoradoParkour]

@Lilleralle1 I've seen both. Landing on your hands is more dangerous though.

[loggriff]

Brilliant

[AkaIceBear]

If i could do a backflip id gladly do this.

Only problem. The whole. Backflip part.

[123fcku]
