Update

It's been a bit since I've written here...about a week and a half ago. I took some time off as I messed up my shoulder decently while attempting J.T. (It was somewhat sore before, but I didn't think it was as bad as it was) . Anyway...I checked out the American Parkour website and went to see what their warm up was:

3 Rounds:

15-25 Squats

10-15 Pull-Ups

10-15 pushups

5 Samson Stretch Each Side


I figured that was probably good enough for a workout for me so I decided to try it...with some alterations though as I did some pull ups and push ups the previous day, and was wanting to do some weighted forward lunges.

Pretty much it was a mess....I just got certified as a NASM personal trainer, so in order to keep some of that stuff fresh in my head while I look for a job, I've been trying to apply what I've learned with what I'm learning with crossfit and parkour (though parkour I've only attempted the modified warm up). It's a bit more difficult trying to mix the programs together, though I would rather try new things on myself first, instead of clients. I like crossfit, and while I was bored with my old routine, I still like doing certain exercises. I don't think doing those exercises are bad...its just a different system...so trying to figure out how to mesh the two styles, if possible is going to be a bit of a task.
