CAT GRAB / ARM JUMP - PARKOUR TUTORIAL

Cat Grab, Cat Leap, arm jump or Saut de bras :To land on the side of an obstacle in a hanging/crouched position, the hands gripping the top edge, holding the body, ready to perform a muscle up.

Please hit LIKE and FAVORITE so others have the chance to see and use these videos to learn and grow (plus it also encourages me to make more).

Please keep in mind there are many paths that you can take to reach the same destination. In these parkour and freerunning tutorials I will be breaking down the movement the way I know how. These are not the flashiest videos, and I do a lot of talking, but please take the time to listen and I am sure you will learn a lot.

Step 1) Know the physics of your movement (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3S9LFHETtL0) How your feet are going to grip the wall.

Step 2) Find a location where you can gradually step up your jumping distance from the ground to a wall.

Step 3) Understand that it is in fact you foot that should touch the wall before your hands. As the gap gets bigger so will the time between when you feet and then hands hit the wall.

Step 4) Your hands should grab the wall in a at the knuckles. DON'T try to get your whole hand on top.

Step 5) Get creative have fun and practice. Try doing a Tic tac to Cat.

Please let me know if you have any other questions regarding this movement and feel free to respond with a video of yours if you want to show me what you have learned or even have me pick a part what you are doing right or wrong.

Do you have to be a certain age?

[LaFlairParkour]

@Gam3rWii not really but if your young and your body is still growing and developing make sure to take it slow and build strength with confidence. Have fun!

When you do a Cat Grab does it hurt your hands

[oOKaileeOo]

Thumbs up for them starters! When you do a cat hang, if you want to hold it for a while... put your feet up higher on the balls of your feet and make your arms straight not angled.
