Step Vault Progressions

tutorial

Video Details

In this tutorial, we will explore the world of step vaults, ranging from beginner to advanced techniques. Step vaults are essential for anyone looking to enhance their parkour skills, as they enable you to navigate obstacles with ease and confidence. Whether you're starting out or refining your skill set, it’s crucial to practice variations that suit your current ability level, ensuring you build a solid foundation while progressively challenging yourself.

To kick things off, begin with the basics: the two-handed step vault using both hands and one foot to lift yourself over a wall. As you grow comfortable, transition to the one-handed variation, practicing on the floor for safety. Gradually introduce movements with your non-dominant side to maximize versatility. For those ready to advance, incorporating momentum by stepping back and then vaulting can help you gain speed. Explore different surfaces and materials to understand how various conditions affect your technique, allowing you to adapt effectively. Chain together multiple vaults to improve flow and precision, while always maintaining consistency in your speed and control.

As you progress to advanced techniques, focus on increasing your speed, finding your flow over different obstacles, and building your confidence in height variations. Work on isometric holds at higher elevations to enhance your muscular control and body awareness. Lastly, embrace the unconventional by challenging yourself with unique obstacles, which can foster creativity and adaptability in your movements. Overall, the key takeaway is to practice regularly, be patient with your progress, and most importantly, have fun while you develop your parkour skills.

Start with basic step vaults, progressing from two-handed to one-handed variations, and practice on the floor for safety.
Experiment with different surfaces and continuous chaining to enhance your flow and consistency.
Embrace unique obstacles and focus on speed and height to challenge yourself and improve confidence in your movements.

														welcome to the levels video
													
																									
														2.48
														we are going to be looking at variations
													
																									
														4.799
														from beginner to advanced
													
																									
														15.679
														all right beginner number one is the one
													
																									
														17.52
														that we have already done
													
																									
														19.119
														both hands one foot this is going to be
													
																									
														22.96
														basically the same as what you've
													
																									
														24.56
														already done in the last video in the
													
																									
														26.24
														basics and we're just trying to get
													
																									
														28
														ourself over the wall using both hands
													
																									
														30.48
														and one foot so push up
													
																									
														32.88
														foot
													
																									
														33.76
														step through
													
																									
														35.28
														and down
													
																									
														36.96
														beginner number two one hand
													
																									
														40.559
														this is the standard step fault that
													
																									
														42.16
														everybody will recognize this is the one
													
																									
														44.079
														hand one foot version so it's the same
													
																									
														46.399
														as the two-handed one but without the
													
																									
														48.719
														inside hand on the wall at all
													
																									
														51.68
														you may need a little bit of a hop to
													
																									
														53.76
														get up and get that foot up onto the
													
																									
														55.92
														wall but that's okay so start front of
													
																									
														58.64
														the wall this time one hand up on the
													
																									
														61.039
														wall already and the back leg is gonna
													
																									
														63.68
														go up the inside leg is gonna push
													
																									
														66.08
														straight over
													
																									
														67.52
														up through and down
													
																									
														72.08
														beginner number three is using the floor
													
																									
														74.72
														this is safer but a little bit harder do
													
																									
														77.119
														the one foot one-handed version on the
													
																									
														79.2
														floor this will help you with confidence
													
																									
														81.439
														mobility and balance
													
																									
														84.24
														so we're going to start on the floor
													
																									
														86.56
														one hand one foot you're gonna push
													
																									
														89.04
														through
													
																									
														90.079
														come through
													
																									
														91.36
														and back
													
																									
														93.119
														through
													
																									
														94.799
														and back
													
																									
														96.56
														try both sides
													
																									
														98.24
														from here
													
																									
														100.479
														through
													
																									
														102.079
														and back
													
																									
														106.64
														beginner number four
													
																									
														108.159
														weaker side this is the one-handed
													
																									
														110.479
														version of the volt but performed with
													
																									
														113.28
														the less comfortable arm and foot so if
													
																									
														115.759
														you're always using one side
													
																									
														118.159
														now you're going to be using the other
													
																									
														119.92
														side this is a variation that you should
													
																									
														122.24
														always do to maximize versatility
													
																									
														124.88
														sometimes the environment will just
													
																									
														126.56
														dictate that you can only do a
													
																									
														128.8
														particular move on one side so it's best
													
																									
														131.68
														get comfortable using either left or
													
																									
														134.319
														right so if you're comfortable with your
													
																									
														136.4
														right hand and your left foot
													
																									
														138.319
														coming up and stepping through
													
																									
														142.8
														now you have to get comfortable with the
													
																									
														144.56
														left hand and the right foot same thing
													
																									
														147.52
														coming up
													
																									
														148.64
														step
													
																									
														149.599
														push through
													
																									
														150.72
														and down beginner number five momentum
													
																									
														155.2
														start with one step back
													
																									
														157.76
														and from here you're going to take one
													
																									
														160.08
														step in
													
																									
														161.28
														and then do the step vault so from here
													
																									
														163.44
														i'm going to go with my right and then
													
																									
														165.2
														put my left up so from one up through
													
																									
														168.959
														and down next is going to be two steps
													
																									
														172.239
														so we're going to take one step back
													
																									
														174.4
														two steps back so now i have to go one
													
																									
														177.519
														two up through and down
													
																									
														184.48
														however be aware of wasting that
													
																									
														187.04
														momentum so if you're pausing or
													
																									
														189.76
														hesitating before the wall you want to
													
																									
														192.319
														try to get rid of that go back to only
													
																									
														194.319
														doing one step instead of two and build
													
																									
														196.959
														up until you can work on
													
																									
														199.28
														getting that whole momentum up and over
													
																									
														201.44
														the wall
													
																									
														202.8
														intermediate number one
													
																									
														204.879
														different surfaces
													
																									
														206.959
														start investigating the use of different
													
																									
														208.959
														surfaces i'm talking about shapes and
													
																									
														211.36
														materials
													
																									
														212.4
														from concrete brick to metal railings
													
																									
														214.56
														and everything else in between you want
													
																									
														216.4
														to start being able to distinguish how
													
																									
														219.04
														different materials are going to behave
													
																									
														220.959
														and react
													
																									
														222.239
														wood metal types of brick all have to be
													
																									
														225.2
														treated slightly differently you can use
													
																									
														227.2
														the weather to your advantage and use it
													
																									
														229.36
														as another variable to change the
													
																									
														231.28
														surfaces so the same obstacle in the wet
													
																									
														234.4
														cold hot dry icy all make things
													
																									
														237.2
														different for instance we know that wet
													
																									
														239.84
														wood will no doubt be slippery crumbly
													
																									
														243.04
														dry brick with dust may also need a
													
																									
														245.36
														little bit of care so have a go with all
													
																									
														248
														different types of materials
													
																									
														249.84
														right here we've got brick nice dry
													
																									
														252.879
														brick that we've been using this whole
													
																									
														254.48
														time this is nice and easy nice and
													
																									
														256.72
														comfortable
													
																									
														258.4
														right here we've got a flat railing it
													
																									
														260.72
														wobbles a little bit make sure it's
													
																									
														262.88
														closed but essentially
													
																									
														264.96
														same thing up and down we've got a high
													
																									
														267.84
														rail up there so we could do the same
													
																									
														270.16
														thing
													
																									
														272.49
														[Music]
													
																									
														273.759
														just start on one side
													
																									
														275.919
														practice coming over
													
																									
														278.32
														step
													
																									
														279.28
														and down
													
																									
														280.84
														intermediate two
													
																									
														282.8
														chaining start to practice chaining
													
																									
														284.8
														multiple step vaults together with two
													
																									
														286.88
														or three steps in between them learning
													
																									
														289.12
														how to set yourself up with the correct
													
																									
														291.04
														hand and foot placement from one to
													
																									
														293.199
														another will help create flow this will
													
																									
														296
														also get you to start understanding the
													
																									
														298.08
														importance of being accurate with those
													
																									
														300.4
														positions so you could do something
													
																									
														302.8
														where you come over
													
																									
														305.199
														back
													
																									
														306.96
														back
													
																									
														311.68
														where
													
																									
														313.039
														you're not taking more than one two or
													
																									
														315.28
														three steps
													
																									
														316.72
														intermediate three consistency
													
																									
														319.84
														this one can be misunderstood for going
													
																									
														321.919
														fast what we are looking for is a
													
																									
														324.4
														consistent movement speed which can be
													
																									
														326.96
														slow but has less fluctuations of that
													
																									
														330.32
														speed
													
																									
														331.44
														for instance the entry and exit of the
													
																									
														333.36
														vault are usually easier and quicker
													
																									
														335.36
														than the middle part of getting over the
													
																									
														337.28
														wall try to remain active and contracted
													
																									
														339.6
														the whole way without any relaxing of
													
																									
														341.84
														the muscles at any point film yourself
													
																									
														344.4
														and watch it to see where any of the
													
																									
														346.96
														sticking points are where you slow down
													
																									
														349.759
														where you hesitate or reduce any of the
													
																									
														351.919
														momentum so if you're going
													
																									
														354.479
														fast slow
													
																									
														356.72
														fast again
													
																									
														358.08
														you want to try to average that out so
													
																									
														362.24
														the whole thing should be the same speed
													
																									
														364.8
														coming in up over down so less pausing
													
																									
														369.759
														less momentum slowing down intermediate
													
																									
														372.88
														four
													
																									
														373.84
														slow and controlled
													
																									
														376.08
														so perform the step volt as slow as you
													
																									
														378.8
														can and then hold the position in the
													
																									
														380.72
														middle where the back leg has just
													
																									
														382.96
														passed through but not gone onto the
													
																									
														385.28
														ground yet
													
																									
														386.72
														extend the leg straight hold your
													
																									
														388.96
														balance for about 10 seconds and then
													
																									
														391.919
														reverse the movement to back to the
													
																									
														394.16
														beginning again
													
																									
														395.68
														so what that looks like is coming up
													
																									
														398.8
														and from here you're going to slowly
													
																									
														401.12
														bring the leg through
													
																									
														403.84
														extend to a straight position
													
																									
														408.8
														return back
													
																									
														413.28
														and come back down again
													
																									
														415.919
														advance number one
													
																									
														417.52
														speed
													
																									
														419.44
														so a speed step is a slightly different
													
																									
														422.8
														variation of the step vault and it
													
																									
														424.56
														deserves its own video because we can go
													
																									
														426.96
														quite in depth with that
													
																									
														428.639
														however performing this normal step
													
																									
														431.039
														vault at speed is also a good skill to
													
																									
														433.68
														acquire slowly practice increasing your
													
																									
														436.16
														speed from a walking pace into jogging
													
																									
														438.8
														in and out of it to having the
													
																									
														440.639
														confidence of going at your full
													
																									
														442.479
														sprinting speed
													
																									
														444.56
														you can start off nice and slow
													
																									
														447.12
														move into it
													
																									
														449.199
														walking
													
																									
														450.639
														getting used to going a little bit
													
																									
														453.12
														quicker like jogging pace
													
																									
														455.759
														where you're moving in coming up
													
																									
														458.88
														over
													
																									
														459.84
														and then building speed up as you feel
													
																									
														462.479
														comfortable
													
																									
														464.479
														so you can go much quicker up and over
													
																									
														469.36
														advanced to
													
																									
														470.96
														flow
													
																									
														482.72
														being able to go over different
													
																									
														484.56
														obstacles with different surfaces
													
																									
														486.639
														without any planning your foot placement
													
																									
														488.72
														and keeping a consistent speed is good
													
																									
														490.8
														practice for when the terrain and
													
																									
														492.639
														environment is unknown
													
																									
														494.8
														advance number three height
													
																									
														497.28
														this is obviously dependent on your own
													
																									
														499.919
														height but try to use your arms to pull
													
																									
														502.639
														you as much as you can into a higher
													
																									
														505.28
														step fault this can be helpful on higher
													
																									
														507.759
														railings and the beginnings of climb ups
													
																									
														510.96
														okay we can start off low and see how
													
																									
														513.519
														far we can get with the step fault so
													
																									
														516.08
														push up over and down
													
																									
														523.12
														slowly making your way
													
																									
														525.279
														further down so it gets higher and
													
																									
														527.279
														higher
													
																									
														528.32
														jump step through
													
																									
														530.72
														if you can get to something
													
																									
														532.72
														roughly head height that would be a good
													
																									
														534.72
														start so being able to
													
																									
														537.2
														push
													
																									
														538
														step
													
																									
														539.04
														over
													
																									
														540.32
														so advanced number four is an isometric
													
																									
														543.92
														hold
													
																									
														544.88
														this is the same as the intermediate
													
																									
														547.04
														variation of the slow and controlled one
													
																									
														550.08
														however this is now at height on a
													
																									
														552.64
														railing so the a goal post the top of a
													
																									
														555.92
														swing set some scaffolding or anything
													
																									
														558.32
														else like that that's what you want to
													
																									
														560.16
														find
													
																									
														561.44
														this will really tax your muscular
													
																									
														563.279
														control your adrenaline and fear and a
													
																									
														566
														great way of fine tuning those positions
													
																									
														568.399
														and body awareness
													
																									
														570.08
														so same as before you're going to use
													
																									
														572
														the railing you're going to get up on
													
																									
														573.92
														top you're going to bring the other leg
													
																									
														576.64
														through
													
																									
														578.72
														hold that position for 5-10 seconds
													
																									
														582.959
														and then slowly
													
																									
														585.2
														bring it back
													
																									
														586.64
														and come down don't forget to do both
													
																									
														589.6
														sides
													
																									
														590.72
														so same thing
													
																									
														592.08
														you're going to get up onto the railing
													
																									
														594.24
														find your way up that back leg comes
													
																									
														597.279
														through
													
																									
														598.959
														point the leg
													
																									
														600.56
														hold that position
													
																									
														604.48
														slowly
													
																									
														606
														come back
													
																									
														607.76
														advance number five embrace the weird
													
																									
														611.279
														the last variation is to go out and
													
																									
														613.04
														challenge yourself to find any weird and
													
																									
														615.44
														strange obstacles that you don't know
													
																									
														617.6
														whether you can step vault or not
													
																									
														619.76
														for example trees and branches can be
													
																									
														622.399
														good
													
																									
														623.36
														can you do non-flat fences
													
																									
														626.079
														can you step vault through small gaps a
													
																									
														628.399
														slanted angle with backpacks on a
													
																									
														630.959
														barefoot in the dark up high underground
													
																									
														633.839
														on a chain
													
																									
														635.04
														a moving gate the list is endless
													
																									
														637.76
														try and challenge yourself with
													
																									
														639.36
														everything and anything
													
																									
														641.519
														so that's it for this video
													
																									
														643.839
														try and just go out and have some fun
													
																									
														645.92
														and do some parkour don't worry about
													
																									
														648
														commenting subscribing or liking or any
													
																									
														650.72
														of that stuff just go and try and get
													
																									
														653.2
														better at doing parkour and getting more
													
																									
														656
														practical and functional
													
																									
														658.67

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
welcome to the levels video

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:07,000
we are going to be looking at variations

3
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,000
from beginner to advanced

4
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,000
all right beginner number one is the one

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:22,000
that we have already done

6
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:24,000
both hands one foot this is going to be

7
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000
basically the same as what you've

8
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,000
already done in the last video in the

9
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:30,000
basics and we're just trying to get

10
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,000
ourself over the wall using both hands

11
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,000
and one foot so push up

12
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,000
foot

13
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,000
step through

14
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:40,000
and down

15
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:41,000
beginner number two one hand

16
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,000
this is the standard step fault that

17
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,000
everybody will recognize this is the one

18
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,000
hand one foot version so it's the same

19
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:51,000
as the two-handed one but without the

20
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:53,000
inside hand on the wall at all

21
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,000
you may need a little bit of a hop to

22
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:57,000
get up and get that foot up onto the

23
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,000
wall but that's okay so start front of

24
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,000
the wall this time one hand up on the

25
00:00:61,000 --> 00:01:06,000
wall already and the back leg is gonna

26
00:00:63,000 --> 00:01:06,000
go up the inside leg is gonna push

27
00:00:66,000 --> 00:01:12,000
straight over

28
00:00:67,000 --> 00:01:14,000
up through and down

29
00:00:72,000 --> 00:01:17,000
beginner number three is using the floor

30
00:00:74,000 --> 00:01:18,000
this is safer but a little bit harder do

31
00:00:77,000 --> 00:01:21,000
the one foot one-handed version on the

32
00:00:79,000 --> 00:01:24,000
floor this will help you with confidence

33
00:00:81,000 --> 00:01:26,000
mobility and balance

34
00:00:84,000 --> 00:01:28,000
so we're going to start on the floor

35
00:00:86,000 --> 00:01:29,000
one hand one foot you're gonna push

36
00:00:89,000 --> 00:01:31,000
through

37
00:00:90,000 --> 00:01:33,000
come through

38
00:00:91,000 --> 00:01:34,000
and back

39
00:00:93,000 --> 00:01:36,000
through

40
00:00:94,000 --> 00:01:37,000
and back

41
00:00:96,000 --> 00:01:39,000
try both sides

42
00:00:98,000 --> 00:01:41,000
from here

43
00:00:100,000 --> 00:01:44,000
through

44
00:00:102,000 --> 00:01:44,000
and back

45
00:00:106,000 --> 00:01:49,000
beginner number four

46
00:00:108,000 --> 00:01:53,000
weaker side this is the one-handed

47
00:00:110,000 --> 00:01:55,000
version of the volt but performed with

48
00:00:113,000 --> 00:01:57,000
the less comfortable arm and foot so if

49
00:00:115,000 --> 00:01:59,000
you're always using one side

50
00:00:118,000 --> 00:01:62,000
now you're going to be using the other

51
00:00:119,000 --> 00:01:63,000
side this is a variation that you should

52
00:00:122,000 --> 00:01:66,000
always do to maximize versatility

53
00:00:124,000 --> 00:01:67,000
sometimes the environment will just

54
00:00:126,000 --> 00:01:71,000
dictate that you can only do a

55
00:00:128,000 --> 00:01:73,000
particular move on one side so it's best

56
00:00:131,000 --> 00:01:75,000
get comfortable using either left or

57
00:00:134,000 --> 00:01:78,000
right so if you're comfortable with your

58
00:00:136,000 --> 00:01:82,000
right hand and your left foot

59
00:00:138,000 --> 00:01:84,000
coming up and stepping through

60
00:00:142,000 --> 00:01:86,000
now you have to get comfortable with the

61
00:00:144,000 --> 00:01:88,000
left hand and the right foot same thing

62
00:00:147,000 --> 00:01:89,000
coming up

63
00:00:148,000 --> 00:01:90,000
step

64
00:00:149,000 --> 00:01:94,000
push through

65
00:00:150,000 --> 00:01:97,000
and down beginner number five momentum

66
00:00:155,000 --> 00:01:99,000
start with one step back

67
00:00:157,000 --> 00:01:100,000
and from here you're going to take one

68
00:00:160,000 --> 00:01:103,000
step in

69
00:00:161,000 --> 00:01:104,000
and then do the step vault so from here

70
00:00:163,000 --> 00:01:108,000
i'm going to go with my right and then

71
00:00:165,000 --> 00:01:112,000
put my left up so from one up through

72
00:00:168,000 --> 00:01:113,000
and down next is going to be two steps

73
00:00:172,000 --> 00:01:117,000
so we're going to take one step back

74
00:00:174,000 --> 00:01:122,000
two steps back so now i have to go one

75
00:00:177,000 --> 00:01:122,000
two up through and down

76
00:00:184,000 --> 00:01:129,000
however be aware of wasting that

77
00:00:187,000 --> 00:01:132,000
momentum so if you're pausing or

78
00:00:189,000 --> 00:01:133,000
hesitating before the wall you want to

79
00:00:192,000 --> 00:01:136,000
try to get rid of that go back to only

80
00:00:194,000 --> 00:01:138,000
doing one step instead of two and build

81
00:00:196,000 --> 00:01:140,000
up until you can work on

82
00:00:199,000 --> 00:01:142,000
getting that whole momentum up and over

83
00:00:201,000 --> 00:01:144,000
the wall

84
00:00:202,000 --> 00:01:146,000
intermediate number one

85
00:00:204,000 --> 00:01:148,000
different surfaces

86
00:00:206,000 --> 00:01:150,000
start investigating the use of different

87
00:00:208,000 --> 00:01:151,000
surfaces i'm talking about shapes and

88
00:00:211,000 --> 00:01:154,000
materials

89
00:00:212,000 --> 00:01:156,000
from concrete brick to metal railings

90
00:00:214,000 --> 00:01:158,000
and everything else in between you want

91
00:00:216,000 --> 00:01:160,000
to start being able to distinguish how

92
00:00:219,000 --> 00:01:162,000
different materials are going to behave

93
00:00:220,000 --> 00:01:164,000
and react

94
00:00:222,000 --> 00:01:166,000
wood metal types of brick all have to be

95
00:00:225,000 --> 00:01:169,000
treated slightly differently you can use

96
00:00:227,000 --> 00:01:171,000
the weather to your advantage and use it

97
00:00:229,000 --> 00:01:174,000
as another variable to change the

98
00:00:231,000 --> 00:01:176,000
surfaces so the same obstacle in the wet

99
00:00:234,000 --> 00:01:179,000
cold hot dry icy all make things

100
00:00:237,000 --> 00:01:182,000
different for instance we know that wet

101
00:00:239,000 --> 00:01:184,000
wood will no doubt be slippery crumbly

102
00:00:243,000 --> 00:01:187,000
dry brick with dust may also need a

103
00:00:245,000 --> 00:01:189,000
little bit of care so have a go with all

104
00:00:248,000 --> 00:01:192,000
different types of materials

105
00:00:249,000 --> 00:01:193,000
right here we've got brick nice dry

106
00:00:252,000 --> 00:01:195,000
brick that we've been using this whole

107
00:00:254,000 --> 00:01:197,000
time this is nice and easy nice and

108
00:00:256,000 --> 00:01:200,000
comfortable

109
00:00:258,000 --> 00:01:202,000
right here we've got a flat railing it

110
00:00:260,000 --> 00:01:204,000
wobbles a little bit make sure it's

111
00:00:262,000 --> 00:01:206,000
closed but essentially

112
00:00:264,000 --> 00:01:209,000
same thing up and down we've got a high

113
00:00:267,000 --> 00:01:211,000
rail up there so we could do the same

114
00:00:270,000 --> 00:01:212,000
thing

115
00:00:272,000 --> 00:01:215,000
[Music]

116
00:00:273,000 --> 00:01:217,000
just start on one side

117
00:00:275,000 --> 00:01:218,000
practice coming over

118
00:00:278,000 --> 00:01:220,000
step

119
00:00:279,000 --> 00:01:222,000
and down

120
00:00:280,000 --> 00:01:223,000
intermediate two

121
00:00:282,000 --> 00:01:226,000
chaining start to practice chaining

122
00:00:284,000 --> 00:01:228,000
multiple step vaults together with two

123
00:00:286,000 --> 00:01:230,000
or three steps in between them learning

124
00:00:289,000 --> 00:01:233,000
how to set yourself up with the correct

125
00:00:291,000 --> 00:01:235,000
hand and foot placement from one to

126
00:00:293,000 --> 00:01:237,000
another will help create flow this will

127
00:00:296,000 --> 00:01:240,000
also get you to start understanding the

128
00:00:298,000 --> 00:01:242,000
importance of being accurate with those

129
00:00:300,000 --> 00:01:244,000
positions so you could do something

130
00:00:302,000 --> 00:01:246,000
where you come over

131
00:00:305,000 --> 00:01:249,000
back

132
00:00:306,000 --> 00:01:249,000
back

133
00:00:311,000 --> 00:01:254,000
where

134
00:00:313,000 --> 00:01:256,000
you're not taking more than one two or

135
00:00:315,000 --> 00:01:259,000
three steps

136
00:00:316,000 --> 00:01:261,000
intermediate three consistency

137
00:00:319,000 --> 00:01:263,000
this one can be misunderstood for going

138
00:00:321,000 --> 00:01:266,000
fast what we are looking for is a

139
00:00:324,000 --> 00:01:269,000
consistent movement speed which can be

140
00:00:326,000 --> 00:01:270,000
slow but has less fluctuations of that

141
00:00:330,000 --> 00:01:273,000
speed

142
00:00:331,000 --> 00:01:274,000
for instance the entry and exit of the

143
00:00:333,000 --> 00:01:276,000
vault are usually easier and quicker

144
00:00:335,000 --> 00:01:279,000
than the middle part of getting over the

145
00:00:337,000 --> 00:01:281,000
wall try to remain active and contracted

146
00:00:339,000 --> 00:01:283,000
the whole way without any relaxing of

147
00:00:341,000 --> 00:01:286,000
the muscles at any point film yourself

148
00:00:344,000 --> 00:01:289,000
and watch it to see where any of the

149
00:00:346,000 --> 00:01:290,000
sticking points are where you slow down

150
00:00:349,000 --> 00:01:293,000
where you hesitate or reduce any of the

151
00:00:351,000 --> 00:01:295,000
momentum so if you're going

152
00:00:354,000 --> 00:01:297,000
fast slow

153
00:00:356,000 --> 00:01:301,000
fast again

154
00:00:358,000 --> 00:01:304,000
you want to try to average that out so

155
00:00:362,000 --> 00:01:309,000
the whole thing should be the same speed

156
00:00:364,000 --> 00:01:312,000
coming in up over down so less pausing

157
00:00:369,000 --> 00:01:313,000
less momentum slowing down intermediate

158
00:00:372,000 --> 00:01:315,000
four

159
00:00:373,000 --> 00:01:317,000
slow and controlled

160
00:00:376,000 --> 00:01:320,000
so perform the step volt as slow as you

161
00:00:378,000 --> 00:01:322,000
can and then hold the position in the

162
00:00:380,000 --> 00:01:324,000
middle where the back leg has just

163
00:00:382,000 --> 00:01:325,000
passed through but not gone onto the

164
00:00:385,000 --> 00:01:328,000
ground yet

165
00:00:386,000 --> 00:01:331,000
extend the leg straight hold your

166
00:00:388,000 --> 00:01:333,000
balance for about 10 seconds and then

167
00:00:391,000 --> 00:01:334,000
reverse the movement to back to the

168
00:00:394,000 --> 00:01:338,000
beginning again

169
00:00:395,000 --> 00:01:340,000
so what that looks like is coming up

170
00:00:398,000 --> 00:01:343,000
and from here you're going to slowly

171
00:00:401,000 --> 00:01:348,000
bring the leg through

172
00:00:403,000 --> 00:01:347,000
extend to a straight position

173
00:00:408,000 --> 00:01:350,000
return back

174
00:00:413,000 --> 00:01:357,000
and come back down again

175
00:00:415,000 --> 00:01:358,000
advance number one

176
00:00:417,000 --> 00:01:362,000
speed

177
00:00:419,000 --> 00:01:364,000
so a speed step is a slightly different

178
00:00:422,000 --> 00:01:366,000
variation of the step vault and it

179
00:00:424,000 --> 00:01:368,000
deserves its own video because we can go

180
00:00:426,000 --> 00:01:370,000
quite in depth with that

181
00:00:428,000 --> 00:01:373,000
however performing this normal step

182
00:00:431,000 --> 00:01:376,000
vault at speed is also a good skill to

183
00:00:433,000 --> 00:01:378,000
acquire slowly practice increasing your

184
00:00:436,000 --> 00:01:380,000
speed from a walking pace into jogging

185
00:00:438,000 --> 00:01:381,000
in and out of it to having the

186
00:00:440,000 --> 00:01:383,000
confidence of going at your full

187
00:00:442,000 --> 00:01:386,000
sprinting speed

188
00:00:444,000 --> 00:01:388,000
you can start off nice and slow

189
00:00:447,000 --> 00:01:390,000
move into it

190
00:00:449,000 --> 00:01:392,000
walking

191
00:00:450,000 --> 00:01:395,000
getting used to going a little bit

192
00:00:453,000 --> 00:01:398,000
quicker like jogging pace

193
00:00:455,000 --> 00:01:399,000
where you're moving in coming up

194
00:00:458,000 --> 00:01:401,000
over

195
00:00:459,000 --> 00:01:403,000
and then building speed up as you feel

196
00:00:462,000 --> 00:01:408,000
comfortable

197
00:00:464,000 --> 00:01:410,000
so you can go much quicker up and over

198
00:00:469,000 --> 00:01:413,000
advanced to

199
00:00:470,000 --> 00:01:413,000
flow

200
00:00:482,000 --> 00:01:425,000
being able to go over different

201
00:00:484,000 --> 00:01:428,000
obstacles with different surfaces

202
00:00:486,000 --> 00:01:430,000
without any planning your foot placement

203
00:00:488,000 --> 00:01:431,000
and keeping a consistent speed is good

204
00:00:490,000 --> 00:01:434,000
practice for when the terrain and

205
00:00:492,000 --> 00:01:436,000
environment is unknown

206
00:00:494,000 --> 00:01:439,000
advance number three height

207
00:00:497,000 --> 00:01:442,000
this is obviously dependent on your own

208
00:00:499,000 --> 00:01:444,000
height but try to use your arms to pull

209
00:00:502,000 --> 00:01:447,000
you as much as you can into a higher

210
00:00:505,000 --> 00:01:450,000
step fault this can be helpful on higher

211
00:00:507,000 --> 00:01:452,000
railings and the beginnings of climb ups

212
00:00:510,000 --> 00:01:455,000
okay we can start off low and see how

213
00:00:513,000 --> 00:01:460,000
far we can get with the step fault so

214
00:00:516,000 --> 00:01:461,000
push up over and down

215
00:00:523,000 --> 00:01:467,000
slowly making your way

216
00:00:525,000 --> 00:01:468,000
further down so it gets higher and

217
00:00:527,000 --> 00:01:470,000
higher

218
00:00:528,000 --> 00:01:472,000
jump step through

219
00:00:530,000 --> 00:01:474,000
if you can get to something

220
00:00:532,000 --> 00:01:476,000
roughly head height that would be a good

221
00:00:534,000 --> 00:01:477,000
start so being able to

222
00:00:537,000 --> 00:01:478,000
push

223
00:00:538,000 --> 00:01:480,000
step

224
00:00:539,000 --> 00:01:483,000
over

225
00:00:540,000 --> 00:01:484,000
so advanced number four is an isometric

226
00:00:543,000 --> 00:01:486,000
hold

227
00:00:544,000 --> 00:01:489,000
this is the same as the intermediate

228
00:00:547,000 --> 00:01:492,000
variation of the slow and controlled one

229
00:00:550,000 --> 00:01:495,000
however this is now at height on a

230
00:00:552,000 --> 00:01:497,000
railing so the a goal post the top of a

231
00:00:555,000 --> 00:01:499,000
swing set some scaffolding or anything

232
00:00:558,000 --> 00:01:501,000
else like that that's what you want to

233
00:00:560,000 --> 00:01:503,000
find

234
00:00:561,000 --> 00:01:505,000
this will really tax your muscular

235
00:00:563,000 --> 00:01:508,000
control your adrenaline and fear and a

236
00:00:566,000 --> 00:01:510,000
great way of fine tuning those positions

237
00:00:568,000 --> 00:01:511,000
and body awareness

238
00:00:570,000 --> 00:01:513,000
so same as before you're going to use

239
00:00:572,000 --> 00:01:516,000
the railing you're going to get up on

240
00:00:573,000 --> 00:01:517,000
top you're going to bring the other leg

241
00:00:576,000 --> 00:01:522,000
through

242
00:00:578,000 --> 00:01:524,000
hold that position for 5-10 seconds

243
00:00:582,000 --> 00:01:525,000
and then slowly

244
00:00:585,000 --> 00:01:529,000
bring it back

245
00:00:586,000 --> 00:01:530,000
and come down don't forget to do both

246
00:00:589,000 --> 00:01:531,000
sides

247
00:00:590,000 --> 00:01:533,000
so same thing

248
00:00:592,000 --> 00:01:537,000
you're going to get up onto the railing

249
00:00:594,000 --> 00:01:538,000
find your way up that back leg comes

250
00:00:597,000 --> 00:01:540,000
through

251
00:00:598,000 --> 00:01:543,000
point the leg

252
00:00:600,000 --> 00:01:543,000
hold that position

253
00:00:604,000 --> 00:01:547,000
slowly

254
00:00:606,000 --> 00:01:551,000
come back

255
00:00:607,000 --> 00:01:552,000
advance number five embrace the weird

256
00:00:611,000 --> 00:01:555,000
the last variation is to go out and

257
00:00:613,000 --> 00:01:557,000
challenge yourself to find any weird and

258
00:00:615,000 --> 00:01:559,000
strange obstacles that you don't know

259
00:00:617,000 --> 00:01:561,000
whether you can step vault or not

260
00:00:619,000 --> 00:01:562,000
for example trees and branches can be

261
00:00:622,000 --> 00:01:565,000
good

262
00:00:623,000 --> 00:01:568,000
can you do non-flat fences

263
00:00:626,000 --> 00:01:570,000
can you step vault through small gaps a

264
00:00:628,000 --> 00:01:573,000
slanted angle with backpacks on a

265
00:00:630,000 --> 00:01:574,000
barefoot in the dark up high underground

266
00:00:633,000 --> 00:01:576,000
on a chain

267
00:00:635,000 --> 00:01:579,000
a moving gate the list is endless

268
00:00:637,000 --> 00:01:580,000
try and challenge yourself with

269
00:00:639,000 --> 00:01:583,000
everything and anything

270
00:00:641,000 --> 00:01:585,000
so that's it for this video

271
00:00:643,000 --> 00:01:587,000
try and just go out and have some fun

00:00:653,000 --> 00:01:598,000
better at doing parkour and getting more
