I screwed up in front of some hot girl once (I didn't even know she was there so I couldn't save myself from  embarrassment)  Grin

Oh well, I'm not afraid to mess up in front of people anymore.

the cure for embarrassment while training is to do lots of QM all by yourself in areas of high pedestrian traffic, especially where there are alot of people in your age group, such as a large university or college campus. eventually, you get used to people thinking there is something wrong with you, and just accept it LOL.

Public diving monkey pushups and sideways monkeys are also good ways to overcome the perceived barrier of social ostracism. i know i always look like a complete fool doing that stuff in front of lots of pretty college girls. there's nothing quite like it. especially when you do it really fast LOL. then you can finish it all off with a good stretch of your hamstrings in full public view, followed by some hip circles. that's like the icing on the cake.

“You do freerunning or parkour, I don’t know, but both are the same. Some people are worried about it, but they are people that don’t train for too long, people that…in terms of training, aren’t mature yet. […] One day I’d like to wake up, open my window, and everyones doing parkour." -Ali Shelton
