Precision Trainers for Parkour

Precision Trainers for Parkour

Have you ever wanted to practice your precision jumps, but have no where to train them? Or maybe its raining outside, and your really itching to train. Perhaps you have somewhere to train them, but its high off the the ground and you don't want to practice there until you get the move down. These are three great reasons why you might want to make these trainers, and there are plenty of more.

These trainers are very simple to make, and you can make multiple sets in under an hour! also, they are very cheap to make, as you can use scrap wood if you have to.

MATERIALS NEEDED:
strong wood (we used 2x4's)
screws that will go all the way through one piece, and half into the other. (we used 2 1/2 inch)

TOOLS NEEDED:
Chop Saw/Miter Saw
Table Saw
Drill
Tape Measure
Pencil or Pen

Step 1Measure and Mark your wood

Measure and Mark your wood
to make the trainers, start by marking the 2x4 into one section of around 20 inches (depending on how big your feet are, 20 inches is usually plenty), and 2 sections of 12 inches.
the 20 inch piece will be for the bar you land on, and the 12 inch pieces for the support legs.

I would LOVE to do parkour, it looks like such an amazing workout and so dang entertaining!

Not sure it's really designed for the 6'1" 300# football player build I sport, but dang, it sure looks like a lot of fun. I can only imagine how strong y'alls cores are!
