/difficult challenge. In addition, I play missions, slackline from time to time, and pursue various projects that are challenging or on a large scale. (this past summer my friends and I spent some 70 work hours digging a 9 by 7 ft hole that was going to have a clubhouse built inside, but the park authorities bulldozed it the week we got the pieces of the clubhouse down to the forest) I also play baseball, and though it was once the focal point of my life, i've changed my mindset towards improving my overall ability to move; not just my skills in baseb
all.I have been training parkour for about 17 months as of today, and i have been focusing on physical development for that whole time, while spending a smaller portion working on techniques, balance, and basic movements. I have been trying to develop my strength to a solid level, from which i will progress the skills i accomplish (muscle ups, somewhat heavy pulls and dips, etc.) to higher levels of endurance. When the weather gets warmer the amount of technical practice that i do will definitely increase, and i'll try to advance my parkour as far as possible.
I have been training using a variation of the Russian Conjugate Method so as to develop endurance and strength simultaneously, and i will be emphasizing the endurance part in a month or two as i head into baseball season.
Here's where i'm at at the moment:
I am 16, 173 lbs (78.5 kilos) and 6 feet (183cm)
Broad Jump: 9 ft
Pull ups: 17
Dips: 17
Muscle ups: 1
i don't know what my max deadlift and squats are, and i don't plan on testing for a while. Right now i'm allowing my legs to adapt to a medium sized workload as i encountered a mild overuse injury, coming out of a rest period way too fast.
Right now I am in a 4 week progression cycle, so i can't say "this is what i'm doing". instead, this is what i did yesterday and the day before for my heavy days:

-4x4 pull ups (+25lbs, v. wide-touching-wide-shoulder)
-3x6 dips (+20lbs)

-4x4 One leg Calf Raise (+180lbs)
-3x6 shin flexion (100lbs)
-2x1 wrist roller (10lbs)
-4x6 internal rotation (45lbs)
-4x7 cuban rotation (25lbs)
-4x6 face pulls (12 plates)
