Parkour athlete Obsidian 1138 launched one of his already famous videos, full of great workouts. The exercises demonstrated in this particular video do not represent a full workout routine, but just a collection of training ideas the team at Nirthen Parkour put together for you. You can use these to complement your Parkour training.
As for the intensity, as with any training, it should always be challenging. As long as it is, you should see gradual improvement over time. Obsidian suggests that you set yourself training goals and work towards them.
When working to build strength, you need to also consider diet, as well as the actual exercise. Nutrition and is an important part of any training regime if you want to benefit fully from the workout.

Hi!
What is your experience? Is it better to do for example 12 squats, 12 push-ups, 12 pull-ups, etc… and repeat this group a few times, or to do 3×12 squats in a row and then move to the next exercise? I’m a bit confused about it.
Thank you for this website, it’s really useful!
Hi Gyorgy,
It really depends on what you’re trying to achieve. The first option is, in my opinion, better because you get more muscles in the exercise with less pauses between reps. While you do your squats your upper body has time to recover and vice-versa. So I suggest finding a good routine that alternates upper body conditioning with lower body conditioning.
After a full cycle, don’t forget to take a short break (30 sec – 1 min) before starting the routine again. You don’t want to exhaust yourself before seeing the results.
Thank you! It seems i’m not as stupid as others said
It’s quite a new sport to me, but i really enjoy it. Hopefully i can be more flexible later so I’ll able to use my body as i want
Thanks again!
