Physical and mental process goes to fast

The physical and mental process in parkour goes to fast along traceurs around the world. The ones that seems to have most problem with this, is as you can probably guess, beginners. The human body is as everyone know not used to those kind of movements and physical and mental challenges we face in parkour. Often beginners attention falls to high drops and vaults. Someone see a video on Youtube and say . But when you have trained for a while you understand that parkour is more than a simple video on youtube. You cannot describe what parkour is in a simple video, It's to complicated as parkour is a physicall and aswell a mental dicipline. You can train parkour, live parkour, think parkour, and the more you train than more it effect your personal lifestyle. It's like learning a language and you doesn't understand it before you learn to talk it. It's a kind of a physicall language. It's realistic and naturall.

So, what beginners see on the internet is a bit what we have become during our training - we have become someone who can move through diffrent kinds of enviorments and adapt ourself to it. Their attention falls at high drops and vaults. Those ''Ive been training for three months''-guys often, partically on youtube, train like crazy. Parkour is not for people that want to do crazy things and randomly jumping around. It is in our instincts that we wan't to achieve as much as possible in the shortest period of time. But it doesn't work like that in parkour. Or at least, it shouldn't. Everything we do effect our body negative or possitive. How to define a high drop? Well, everything that is over your own lenght is high, wich means that you should use a roll. It means that it have a enrmously hard preasure on your legs. However, It all depends for how long you have been practising parkour and how you have been training. If you wan't to achieve as much as possible you will not stand tall in parkour. You body will, sooner or later, collaps.

My concern is not only that people are huring themself by doing videos like this on youtube, and training like this, but that they have an effect on other people. Many times I see people on youtube that have been training only for months doing huge drops, and then It all comes me, with my two years of training wich is basicly nothing. What I see is other people doing things that I cannot do, things that I don't have the proper training for. Well, in tecniqal I can do it, but I don't. You feel leftbehind. You feel irretated, especially when you think about your hard work that made it possible to reach your current level. But It's not my wrong and It's not anyone else wrong either, accept for those people that are actually doing this. They're not preperared for what they are doing but they do it anyway often just to tell their friends or fellow traceurs (traceurs?! Ehm)what they did that particular day. They're living for the day. Those people stress other traceurs that improve steady and slow and they're having an very bad affect on other random people around the world. What I am really worried about is videos with those none-traceurs get respected on youtube and often get a high score like 4/5. They're fooling everyone else, and they're fooling themself. Those people think they improve. They basiclly do that do, for the day. There are no shortcuts in parkour.

But in the years they will not be able to train anymore They won't stand tall because they've overtrained and damaged their bodies to much. They only ones that will stand there, doing those adraline-high drops, swining from tree to tree without getting injuries is the traceurs that took the time to build their bodies, and the ones that was listening to their bodies and finally can controll what they wished to controll.

You cannot compare your mental opportunities with your physical abilities.

Bear in mind that we often can do it mentally, but not physically.

This is just a taste of what you can find on youtube.
Unfortunately, It's to respected.
