Monday Conditioning
I got home alright - they lost my luggage for a day but no big deal.
Trained Monday night with my brother. Turns out the brick wall at the front our house I thought would be awesome is in fact ... unstable.
We have some gym equipment at home so did some boxing and free weights as part of the session.
Alternated stair box jumps (big stairs, 3 up, 3 down) with 20 push ups with little break.
It's very different training in the heat.

Farewell SF, I'm going home
oh no, your government doesn't want me anymore.
I'm flying back to Australia Feb 14/15th.
I plan on training as much as I can between now and then.
I'll be back in the states in May/June. Probably start on the East Coast, and visit SF towards the end.
You guys better not have piked by then.
it's been fun

- Maniac to do the jump in the first place, and what if that little ledge had broken off under the sudden pressure?! Holy crap. Too bad that amazing guys like that never live very long...

- I loved these! I thought they were great- esp. the curry one. The jumps look good- and I love the intro. Is that your voice? Offer still stands to come over here and check out FCP-- but you are clearly doing just fine on whatever program you are using. Keep me posted when the next installment goes up.

- hey- thanks so much for your help yesterday! Much, much appreciated and so long as beginners remain as warmly welcome, I will see you there as often as schedule allows. Meantime- would love to see your videos!

EVERYTHING IS CLEAR TO ME NOW
"...adaptation, improvisation!
But your weakness is not your technique...
You think that's air you are breathing now?"
;)
Whoa.
party on garth
@SafeNSure LOL!!!!!!!....lol....
Finally an explanation to my now not so weird habit! Thank you Jodie!
Wow, why don't my usual questions prompt this many insightful and helpful answers?
I learned a lot from the responses of this single post.
You're ALL true :D
I guess like the saying goes, one mind any weapon.
One body, any obstacle.
Thanks (: Thi...
As the saying goes, when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Or similarly, it's not important to know the answers as much as it is to know how to go about finding them.
I think of parkour in terms of music- it's important to b...
it's raining right now. it's supposed to stop by tonight but i'm actually not coming because it's too cold and i'm injured anyway.
I suppose it depends a bit on your personal training style. What do you what to emphasize in your training? What interests you? If all you want is to be as fast as you can, then I can see wanting to find your strengths and relying on them almost e...

BApk End of the Year Party! at Presidio Sports Basement

Come join your BApk friends and family to celebrate a great year of training, hard work and progression.
There will be refreshments in honor of Jason (duperhero) leaving town for a year, and a 20% discount across the store.

LOL, good answer. I think I see what you mean now.
So then, you'd say that the original question here is moot. It's not a question of technique but rather of instict and experience, and that neither "quality" nor "quantity" matter.

Not if it's freezing raining tho.
I think we should try to learn as many techniques as possible but NOT as fast as possible.
I would start with the basic ones, and get those down before you elaborate on them and learn more advanced techniques.
...and everything Giorgio said is t...
Similarly, the human body, doing amazing feats.
