Manchester Jam

Hey, Just got back from a big jam in Manchester which was awesome and now I'm really worn out. I improved on my climb ups, cat leaps, cat to cats and also my back flip landings. About 30 people turned up and i haven't been to a jam like it since the big one last year which around about the same amount of people turned up. Just a thanks to Dean for taking us around and for helping me with a few moves. Just a little report on the day. Bye =)

Other training aims

Some of the other training aims i am going to start to work towards are:

- Handstands as i believe these will help my general balance, strength and co-ordination so from now on I'll be spending about 15 minutes a day just practicing these.

- I'll also be doing 4 x 20 push ups
4 x 20 sit ups
3 x 50 calf raises

- I will be working on my back flip techniques as i believe i need to practice landing them.

- I also believe that my cat leaps need some general work.

- One final thing is that i need to start improving my jump to help my general parkour and will be putting a lot of effort into it.

I believe after a few months of this my parkour and movement will be improving and will keep updating this blog with videos etc. to show my progress.

Conditioning target

Ok, Hey this is my first blog spot post and I've been thinking about my parkour and ways in which i can improve it. One way in which i have thought is with increasing my body strength to improve my parkour as this could help all of the aspects such as my climb ups. At the moment i can currently do 1 pull up with my hands facing the way in which they would in a climb up. I'm going to set my self the target of working up to 10 pull ups by the 20th of October. I believe that this should begin a great improvement of my parkour and the way i move. As well as this i am going to be working on all of my body strength and will be setting my self targets in the future to improve my parkour.
