Parkour: an extreme sport and a lifestyle
If you're interested in extreme sports that push you to the limit, you're probably familiar with Parkour. It is considered an art but borders on the status of a sporting discipline due to its physical and mental demands.It involves moving through your surroundings using your body's capabilities, maximizing the effectiveness, efficiency, and safety of each movement, with the goal of starting from point A and moving to point B, overcoming every obstacle that stands in your way. There is no desire for competition, there are no teams, there is no violence. Only one goal and one way to achieve it.
Anything that stands in your way and prevents you from reaching your goal is considered an obstacle, and you'll have to overcome walls, railings, billboards, street furniture, vegetation, benches, buildings... whatever stands in your way. As we've said, This way of moving requires training to have sufficient strength and physical resistance.You can train gradually and safely by moving around during your daily walks, performing basic movements and trying out new tricks. Plus, Practicing freerunning is also about pursuing beauty in movements, the use of acrobatics to move admirably, just as we admire cats when we observe the agility with which they move and overcome obstacles.
And that's when this phenomenon could be called a lifestyle. Could we move continuously in Parkour mode? After all, it's a safe and efficient way to do it. Or do you think it's too extravagant to be practiced frequently? Do you agree that it's a safe discipline?
We want to show you this video with spectacular images of people practicing Parkour. Judge for yourself whether it seems like a safe enough discipline and whether it could be considered a lifestyle, a regular and beautiful way of getting from one place to another.
