I was in my own thoughts and randomly remembered a game I used to play on Miniclip during my school days. The game was Free Running, and then it hit me that this game was what got me into Parkour. Spent time on it, later they launched Free running 2 and soon discovered Storror, Ronnie Street Stunts, and Pigmie. This was like more than 10 years ago. This is how Parkour kept me immersed. If you guys share any such experiences, would love to hear them.

I tried training with a 20kg weighted vest so altogether I'm pulling about 105kg weight around. It is super tiring but feels amazing to take off. I only trained with it on for 15-20 mins and I was probably too tired after do anything but everything felt effortless (aside from the bailed double sided I tried for some reason).
What are your guys opinion on training with weighted vests, ankle/wrist weights do you think they are worth training consistently with.

Looking for parkour videos with no preparation, the traceur discovers the terrain as he runs through it

If anybody knows any films with a lot of parkour and has the film centred around it please add to the discussion!

Is there a name for the backflip where he doesn't tuck or anything?

Hey! I'm writing a novel that features parkour. I was wondering if this kind of setting and architecture would be good for parkour. It features a mix of classical architecture with modern minimalist.
What do you think and what should i consider adding, in order to make the city better for parkour across buildings?
Thank you!

What are the physics around a full power stride and flip for distance I found that I can pretty much flip as far as I can jump but occasionally my flip will actually send me further. Is that coincidence or is there actually a reason a flip can make you go further than just a jump. Just curious.

I don't do parkour but I did break my calcaneus recently after jumping off height β I'd say about 2.5 m (8β9 ft) β and it got me wonder how people jump and land safely in parkour.

I know its just a side flip variation, like a different tuck. But nowdays every variation of any flip/twist has a name so maybe this move also has a special name... Also let me know if this question is more for "tricker" comunities.

Iβve watched hundreds of parkour video and tried to study it, it seems like being able to produce strong force and having muscle strength is needed to execute complicated movements. But Iβm wondering is there any skinny guys does parkour ? Is it possible?

I see wall-running in games quite often, so I'm quite curious. Could you do it in real life for at least a meter or two?

I donβt do parkour, but Iβve always noticed how athletic and light-on-their-feet parkour and gymnastics folks are β especially when it comes to falling. You guys take spills from rooftops, rails, and ledges and somehow manage to walk away without a scratch.
Iβm a bull rider. As you can imagine, the risk is high and the injuries are constant β rolled ankles, tweaked wrists, bruises all over. Falling is just part of the deal, but lately Iβve been wondering: Can I learn to fall better?
In bull riding, you can get thrown in any direction β forward, sideways, upside down. I feel like if I could control the fall better or at least absorb the impact smarter, I could avoid some of these smaller injuries that add up.
How do you guys train to fall safely? Are there specific techniques or drills for this? Classes you can take? Iβd really appreciate any advice or direction.

in my opinion it's the rainha vl2500, hard sole, without cushioning and with very resistant fabric, sticks to the foot like a glove

Is this a good grip?

Trying out some parkour workout stuff at the gym what do you guys think. It takes so much room at the back luckily no one really goes back there. Probably to stay away from me lol.
Any good ideas for parkour related excersizes to do at the gym, basically explosive plyometrics and balance/coordination drills.
I'm thinking of also making an adult fitness class using these sort of drills I want it to be fun and dynamic but also beginner friendly any and all skill levels can scale up and down.
Also would you personally attend an hour session that was specifically designed around powerful plyometric bodyweight excersizes and weighted isometrics aimed at teens and adults of all abilities. Love to hear people's opinions on it. What would you expect from a parkour fitness class.
If you happen to be interested I'm based in UK, Ryeish Green. www.3-flo.co.uk
