I had a small parkour session on my own today before going gym.
The parkour session was fun located in an area with not alot there few rails and walls ect but I was amused for 20 minutes. I'm like yeah this whole new approach to Parkour is so fun I'm liking it. I'ts not a case of what I'm doing its about how I do it and why I do it.
Due to the knowledge of the human body over the last couple of months I focus more on repition rather than getting something right the first time. If it takes 10 times or a 100 well then I gained something from it =D.
So yer anyway I forgot to mention I landed on my arse which hurts now but all good ;).
So anyway gymnastics I must say the increase in conditioning and practice has payed off but I don't know how :s. I'm working out more on my legs and I can feel it working for sure my back tuck height is high :).
Also the gymnastic stuff I have worked on over the last 2 weeks.
First I started on what I called flick control.
Now flick control is the ability in controlling say a back handspring/back flick. Due to the practice I developed the right leaning technique which has made it 100x easier I can pretty much do it from squat position. Then the week after which I started on sunday I call tuck control.
Tuck control is having the ability and co-ordination to tuch as tight as I need to and also knowing when to untuck. So I have my new strength to take me up along with the right technique and confidence to execute it properly followed with the right control and co-ordination to finish it off.
Now I have just started getting side flips from standing and using this whole tuck control thing it has helped me so much.
Whoever reads this probably won't have a clue what I'm talking about the point is it makes sense to me and I'll probably have ti explain in person in order for it to make sense.
Anyway it has been an awsome session the new approach at Parkour has also been fun. So from this point on its trying harder and go beyound what I imagine. I have in my head a fairly brief idea of where I wanna be so I'll do what it takes to get there :)
