Video Details
If you’re interested in taking your parkour training to the next level, one often overlooked aspect is the psychological and fear-based training that comes with it. This type of training encourages you to push your limits, confront your fears, and understand your boundaries. It emphasizes that the challenges we face in parkour aren’t always physical; they can also be mental. By immersing yourself in experiences that evoke a bit of fear or discomfort, you can promote personal growth and enhance your overall performance.
To get started, consider setting a goal that really pushes your mental limits. An example is completing 300 repetitions of a movement, which may initially sound overwhelming. You can break this down into manageable sets or even push yourself further to try a thousand repetitions. It’s key to question why these numbers intimidate you. This self-reflection will not only prepare you mentally but also help bolster your confidence. If repetition isn't your cup of tea, you might challenge yourself to train in a public space where you feel a bit shy or judged. Overcoming that apprehension will only make you stronger. Additionally, incorporating consequences into your training—like having to perform an extra challenging exercise if you don’t meet your target rep goal—can further motivate you to face your fears head-on.
In conclusion, engaging in psychological training through parkour opens doors to understanding your capability and fortifying your mental strength. Pushing through fear and discomfort cultivates resilience, which is essential not only in parkour but in life as well. As you tackle these challenges, you'll discover more about yourself and the limits you can overcome, enhancing both your skills and enjoyment of the sport.
- Embrace fear as a means to grow: Utilize experiences that make you uncomfortable to expand your training capacity.
- Set ambitious goals: Challenge yourself with high rep counts or public training to boost your confidence and mental grit.
- Reflect on your limits: Understand why certain exercises or environments scare you; this self-awareness can fuel personal growth and skill improvement.

0this video is example number seven it is2.879the last example and we're gonna be5.1focusing on something that is rarely7.71trained in other disciplines but within10.17parkour we heavily rely on this type of13.11training and that is psychological and16.289fear-based training the idea behind the19.65psychological type training is that we22.59are going to be trying to push our24.779boundaries and push our limits and try27.99to investigate and discover where our30.96boundaries lie to do that we will put34.829ourselves into a situation that37.37potentially we don't like this does not41.25mean it has to be risky or dangerous it44.1just means that we have an element of46.44fear in our heads that we're worried49.44about what we're going to do in this51.51example something that you can do is54.199three hundred singles this means that57.78you have to do three hundred repetitions60.18the volume is ridiculous but you can63.48take your time with it it just takes a65.28long period of time and it's gonna push67.92you to see if you are able to do that70.89amount of volume you can do them in73.2singles or doubles or whatever you want75.93but you have to reach and ludicrously a78.509high number that you wouldn't have80.28thought possible in this way we are83.64challenging what we think we are86.07challenging ourselves to expand what we89.159believe we are able to do if you think92.07300 sounds like something quite easy94.619then just up it you could go to a96.81thousand try and do a thousand in a day99.509and see if that is something that is102.45going to actually make you think twice104.85about whether you want to do it and why107.25you are thinking that this is gonna be109.5hard it's something that you want to111.27actually analyze so psychologically113.54putting something into your training116.1that is a little bit more scary and it118.74makes you kind of apprehensive to start121.89the training and want to go out and do123.99it you have to internalize and ask126.899yourself why is this making me scared130.229why do I not like the idea132.84this and you've got to answer it134.91honestly to yourself and go well is it137.849something that I am able to do or not140.459and until you actually give it a go143.43which is the beauty of parkour you will146.069never know whether you are gonna be able148.02to do it or not in a second example for150.989this it does not have to be repetitions153.84if for instance you're the type of157.019person that is a little bit more shy159.11what you could do is to give yourself162.45that kind of fear and apprehension is go165.42and do your training in public go and do167.91your training somewhere where actually170.22you're having to kind of go out of your173.31comfort zone and you're a little bit176.489apprehensive of training in the public178.709and to be honest many people are at the181.86beginning especially in parkour and184.019movement training they're a bit a little186.269bit worried about being judged from188.849other people and the public and190.92especially if they're shy is a little194.01bit unnerving to try to get your195.78training going but the more you do it199.019the more you're going to become200.609comfortable with it and you have to try203.1to get past that fear another way to206.43incorporate fear is to give yourself209.72consequences so if you are unable to212.97complete something say you're doing your215.22normal training of three sets of five218.31repetitions you could say actually if I221.37don't manage to hit the 15 reps this -224.79in this session you have the consequence227.13of doing something else okay a different230.549type of exercise something that you231.989don't particularly want to do all you233.609know that it's going to be hard to do235.38after the training so for instance if238.38you don't hit the 15 you now have to do241.250 single repetitions again it gives a244.68consequence and a goal for you to able247.92to do the training249.09another way to psychologically keep251.22yourself on your toes is to do your253.56normal programme on your own if you're256.5used to groups and classes and similarly259.049the other way around so if you're261.269usually on your own potentially try and263.849do it with a group and see how that gets265.65on266.58so psychological based training is268.74something that is a lot more prominent270.99in parkour and we very rarely see it in273.84other disciplines but it has so many276.629benefits trying to do something that279.259actually your bit fearful of is going to283.199build really really well your mental285.75strength and your grit to try and288.539complete something it also is gonna give291.15you this the love of challenge and293.909that's something that everybody within296.159parkour is going to enjoy and they will299.099talk about is the fact that parkour is301.349all about challenge and if you're not303.479challenging yourself if you are not305.58going to try and keep pushing it a307.44little bit by little bit you're not309.599gonna grow and you're not going to311.61further your progress or your skill or314.61your strength315.33lastly the best point of all is this318.78type of psychological training is gonna321.24teach you more about yourself it is323.61gonna show you hard facts of things you327.449are able to do the limits that you are329.669able to go to you are able to do those332.25300 singles you're able to do that334.56thousand singles whatever it is it means337.8that you've risen to that challenge and339.779you now know more about what you are342.21capable of

is rarely 4 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:12,000 trained in other disciplines but within 5 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:16,000 parkour we heavily rely on this type of 6 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:19,000 training and that is psychological and 7 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:22,000 fear-based training the idea behind the 8 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:24,000 psychological type training is that we 9 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:27,000 are going to be trying to push our 10 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:30,000 boundaries and push our limits and try 11 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:33,000 to investigate and discover where our 12 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:36,000 boundaries lie to do that we will put 13 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:40,000 ourselves into a situation that 14 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:43,000 potentially we don't like this does not 15 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:46,000 mean it has to be risky or dangerous it 16 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:49,000 just means that we have an element of 17 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:51,000 fear in our heads that we're worried 18 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:53,000 about what we're going to do in this 19 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:57,000 example something that you can do is 20 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:59,000 three hundred singles this means that 21 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:02,000 you have to do three hundred repetitions 22 00:00:60,000 --> 00:01:05,000 the volume is ridiculous but you can 23 00:00:63,000 --> 00:01:07,000 take your time with it it just takes a 24 00:00:65,000 --> 00:01:10,000 long period of time and it's gonna push 25 00:00:67,000 --> 00:01:12,000 you to see if you are able to do that 26 00:00:70,000 --> 00:01:15,000 amount of volume you can do them in 27 00:00:73,000 --> 00:01:18,000 singles or doubles or whatever you want 28 00:00:75,000 --> 00:01:19,000 but you have to reach and ludicrously a 29 00:00:78,000 --> 00:01:23,000 high number that you wouldn't have 30 00:00:80,000 --> 00:01:25,000 thought possible in this way we are 31 00:00:83,000 --> 00:01:28,000 challenging what we think we are 32 00:00:86,000 --> 00:01:32,000 challenging ourselves to expand what we 33 00:00:89,000 --> 00:01:34,000 believe we are able to do if you think 34 00:00:92,000 --> 00:01:36,000 300 sounds like something quite easy 35 00:00:94,000 --> 00:01:38,000 then just up it you could go to a 36 00:00:96,000 --> 00:01:41,000 thousand try and do a thousand in a day 37 00:00:99,000 --> 00:01:44,000 and see if that is something that is 38 00:00:102,000 --> 00:01:46,000 going to actually make you think twice 39 00:00:104,000 --> 00:01:48,000 about whether you want to do it and why 40 00:00:107,000 --> 00:01:51,000 you are thinking that this is gonna be 41 00:00:109,000 --> 00:01:53,000 hard it's something that you want to 42 00:00:111,000 --> 00:01:55,000 actually analyze so psychologically 43 00:00:113,000 --> 00:01:58,000 putting something into your training 44 00:00:116,000 --> 00:01:61,000 that is a little bit more scary and it 45 00:00:118,000 --> 00:01:63,000 makes you kind of apprehensive to start 46 00:00:121,000 --> 00:01:66,000 the training and want to go out and do 47 00:00:123,000 --> 00:01:69,000 it you have to internalize and ask 48 00:00:126,000 --> 00:01:71,000 yourself why is this making me scared 49 00:00:130,000 --> 00:01:74,000 why do I not like the idea 50 00:00:132,000 --> 00:01:77,000 this and you've got to answer it 51 00:00:134,000 --> 00:01:79,000 honestly to yourself and go well is it 52 00:00:137,000 --> 00:01:82,000 something that I am able to do or not 53 00:00:140,000 --> 00:01:85,000 and until you actually give it a go 54 00:00:143,000 --> 00:01:87,000 which is the beauty of parkour you will 55 00:00:146,000 --> 00:01:90,000 never know whether you are gonna be able 56 00:00:148,000 --> 00:01:93,000 to do it or not in a second example for 57 00:00:150,000 --> 00:01:96,000 this it does not have to be repetitions 58 00:00:153,000 --> 00:01:98,000 if for instance you're the type of 59 00:00:157,000 --> 00:01:102,000 person that is a little bit more shy 60 00:00:159,000 --> 00:01:105,000 what you could do is to give yourself 61 00:00:162,000 --> 00:01:107,000 that kind of fear and apprehension is go 62 00:00:165,000 --> 00:01:109,000 and do your training in public go and do 63 00:00:167,000 --> 00:01:112,000 your training somewhere where actually 64 00:00:170,000 --> 00:01:116,000 you're having to kind of go out of your 65 00:00:173,000 --> 00:01:118,000 comfort zone and you're a little bit 66 00:00:176,000 --> 00:01:121,000 apprehensive of training in the public 67 00:00:178,000 --> 00:01:123,000 and to be honest many people are at the 68 00:00:181,000 --> 00:01:125,000 beginning especially in parkour and 69 00:00:184,000 --> 00:01:128,000 movement training they're a bit a little 70 00:00:186,000 --> 00:01:130,000 bit worried about being judged from 71 00:00:188,000 --> 00:01:133,000 other people and the public and 72 00:00:190,000 --> 00:01:134,000 especially if they're shy is a little 73 00:00:194,000 --> 00:01:139,000 bit unnerving to try to get your 74 00:00:195,000 --> 00:01:139,000 training going but the more you do it 75 00:00:199,000 --> 00:01:143,000 the more you're going to become 76 00:00:200,000 --> 00:01:145,000 comfortable with it and you have to try 77 00:00:203,000 --> 00:01:149,000 to get past that fear another way to 78 00:00:206,000 --> 00:01:152,000 incorporate fear is to give yourself 79 00:00:209,000 --> 00:01:154,000 consequences so if you are unable to 80 00:00:212,000 --> 00:01:157,000 complete something say you're doing your 81 00:00:215,000 --> 00:01:161,000 normal training of three sets of five 82 00:00:218,000 --> 00:01:164,000 repetitions you could say actually if I 83 00:00:221,000 --> 00:01:166,000 don't manage to hit the 15 reps this - 84 00:00:224,000 --> 00:01:169,000 in this session you have the consequence 85 00:00:227,000 --> 00:01:171,000 of doing something else okay a different 86 00:00:230,000 --> 00:01:173,000 type of exercise something that you 87 00:00:231,000 --> 00:01:174,000 don't particularly want to do all you 88 00:00:233,000 --> 00:01:177,000 know that it's going to be hard to do 89 00:00:235,000 --> 00:01:180,000 after the training so for instance if 90 00:00:238,000 --> 00:01:184,000 you don't hit the 15 you now have to do 91 00:00:241,000 --> 00:01:187,000 50 single repetitions again it gives a 92 00:00:244,000 --> 00:01:188,000 consequence and a goal for you to able 93 00:00:247,000 --> 00:01:190,000 to do the training 94 00:00:249,000 --> 00:01:193,000 another way to psychologically keep 95 00:00:251,000 --> 00:01:196,000 yourself on your toes is to do your 96 00:00:253,000 --> 00:01:198,000 normal programme on your own if you're 97 00:00:256,000 --> 00:01:200,000 used to groups and classes and similarly 98 00:00:259,000 --> 00:01:203,000 the other way around so if you're 99 00:00:261,000 --> 00:01:205,000 usually on your own potentially try and 100 00:00:263,000 --> 00:01:205,000 do it with a group and see how that gets 101 00:00:265,000 --> 00:01:208,000 on 102 00:00:266,000 --> 00:01:210,000 so psychological based training is 103 00:00:268,000 --> 00:01:213,000 something that is a lot more prominent 104 00:00:270,000 --> 00:01:215,000 in parkour and we very rarely see it in 105 00:00:273,000 --> 00:01:218,000 other disciplines but it has so many 106 00:00:276,000 --> 00:01:222,000 benefits trying to do something that 107 00:00:279,000 --> 00:01:225,000 actually your bit fearful of is going to 108 00:00:283,000 --> 00:01:228,000 build really really well your mental 109 00:00:285,000 --> 00:01:230,000 strength and your grit to try and 110 00:00:288,000 --> 00:01:233,000 complete something it also is gonna give 111 00:00:291,000 --> 00:01:236,000 you this the love of challenge and 112 00:00:293,000 --> 00:01:238,000 that's something that everybody within 113 00:00:296,000 --> 00:01:241,000 parkour is going to enjoy and they will 114 00:00:299,000 --> 00:01:243,000 talk about is the fact that parkour is 115 00:00:301,000 --> 00:01:245,000 all about challenge and if you're not 116 00:00:303,000 --> 00:01:246,000 challenging yourself if you are not 117 00:00:305,000 --> 00:01:249,000 going to try and keep pushing it a 118 00:00:307,000 --> 00:01:251,000 little bit by little bit you're not 119 00:00:309,000 --> 00:01:254,000 gonna grow and you're not going to 120 00:00:311,000 --> 00:01:254,000 further your progress or your skill or 121 00:00:314,000 --> 00:01:258,000 your strength 122 00:00:315,000 --> 00:01:260,000 lastly the best point of all is this 123 00:00:318,000 --> 00:01:262,000 type of psychological training is gonna 124 00:00:321,000 --> 00:01:267,000 teach you more about yourself it is 125 00:00:323,000 --> 00:01:269,000 gonna show you hard facts of things you 126 00:00:327,000 --> 00:01:271,000 are able to do the limits that you are 127 00:00:329,000 --> 00:01:273,000 able to go to you are able to do those 128 00:00:332,000 --> 00:01:277,000 300 singles you're able to do that 129 00:00:334,000 --> 00:01:279,000 thousand singles whatever it is it means 130 00:00:337,000 --> 00:01:281,000 that you've risen to that challenge and 131 00:00:339,000 --> 00:01:284,000 you now know more about what you are 132 00:00:342,000 --> 00:01:285,000 capable of doing 133 00:00:351,000 --> 00:01:293,000 you
