ok. who else is hitting the gym so they can do this?
I've started running more and working on my arms here and there.
I hope to be able to start my own parkour video by springtime.
saw the movie District B13 and pleanty of parkour videos that have been all over the net. it has become my reason for exercising.

strange thing. there is not much that i know about this. learned that jumping over various city barriers was made into a movement with it's own name less than one month ago.

parkour in america is called freestyle walking
i used to do it in middleschool. .. if you did some good moves and you had a wack final pose it didnt really mean anything. i would still do it if i was in shape ,all i retained from doing that stuff was poplocking cause we also did a lot of that... and i still have this trampoline in my garage that we used, oh and my right ankle is permanently fucked up i think. i cant jump on it very hard without relying on my toes
got beat up a lot when we weren't in groups :( made fun of and ridiculed just cause we were having fun. "you faggots, what the fuck are you doing. hahahaha look at those apes"

I get friends to record me on my mobile phone doing jumps and stuff - great fun, but they all think I'm childish for doing it. I don't care, I enjoy it greatly.
Don't think you need to hit the gym tho, do some stretches, lower your centre of gravity and tighten up your sense of balance -- all you really need.

I am trying to mix parkour into breakdance like start a video jumping building to building flips etc etc. then down a few stories off a building spring off the wall into a backflip roll into some breakdancing.
Ive got to get flips down pat tho.
