American Parkour
Introducing the Tribe

The Tribe

Some of the best traceurs in the US have come together as a team to help further Parkour.
These are people who have been always been ready to lend a hand, help someone learn a technique, or just "talk shop".

 

The idea is simple, put together a team of people who can act as leaders in the US scene, people who are leaders already, now just sharing their strengths as a group. We feel this is something that many traceurs in the US have been looking forward to, it just needed a catalyst to "put some wheels on it" and get it going. M2's previous experiences have helped make him that person, as he's seen Parkour spread from when it was largely only known by the French into a worldwide phenomenon. He's also seen both the good and bad sides of media exposure and its effects on the Parkour community.

The Performance Menu

issue12_cover_thumb.jpgThe Performance Menu is published by NorCal Strength and conditioning, which I believe is synonymous with Crossfit Norcal. Both are headed up by Robb Wolf, who is easily considered one of the premier sports nutritionists in the world. Gregg Everett and Nicki Violetti are co-owners of Crossfit Norcal with Robb. Robb's bio doesn't stop there, he's also a certified CrossFit Coach, the highest level of Crossfit certification. He's also a hell of a guy who does a lot to help people. Check out the Crossfit Live archive of a radio show featuring Robb. The Performance Menu delivers explanations of the most advanced training and nutrition information available. It is an absolute bargain at $25 a year. You can download a free copy here. Now, why all the hoopla about The Performance Menu? Because this month's issue features Parkour, through a great interview with APK's Gearsighted - That's Jesse Woody for anyone who doesn't know ;)  Jesse is a very active Crossfit member, but more on that in the next few months ...

For now, check out this great article. Big thanks to Greg Everett from Crossfit Norcal for permission to reprint an excerpt on APK.
