Starting tomorrow, I'm shutting down. And forgetting everything electronic, and basically going into a "Power train" mode for a long, long time. I set high standards for myself, and I'm thinking that this will help.
I am also getting rid of all bagged foods, staying away from everything un healthy.
Thoughts+comments?

It sounds like something that can really really benefit you and really help with your training. If can spend everyday every second you can training then the results should be a huge improvement mentally and physically.
Good luck with your training! Stay safe and have fun.

Sounds amazing! I'd do it, but my classes require a bit of computer use. I really admire it though. It's tough to break the modern habits we have. Checking email, posting on forums, pwning noobs on games.
Good luck man, hope to hear the results!

Remember that you need rest, overtrainning injuries can get pretty serious and aren't too hard to acquire. Other than that I would say go get a bunch of good books. Hopefully this will turn into a very meaningful experience.

I'm not sure I would say this is a good idea... I know a lot of people that try this and since it's such a drastic change, they break pretty quickly. I would say it's better to do it gradually and feel your way and find things you can eliminate one by one.
It's great that you are trying something like this but I hope you don't get overwhelmed by "Power train" mode.

But isn't that part of the beauty that is Parkour? We take things gradually by nature, only do what we feel like we can. Don't go beyond what we feel our bodys limits are. I say go for it. Should be an eye-opening experiance. Not just in the "power training" of parkour, but to life in general. Living without some natural comforts and such. |

I was just about to say the same, I tried changing drastically like that, and I failed. I'm not saying it isn't possible, but it's easier to change over time.

yeah, and if you're shutting off everything electronic, why ask how we feel - how will you know?  |
