Topic: Naked free running = better awareness? o.o

[Dylan Antonsen]

ok me and a friend were reading this thread and for no reason cracked up at "flying junk"

I did too, to be honest.
It was really loud.

lol well everyone needs their comic relief    though i was serious, i could've worded that differently...BUT my point got across so ha!

do they make spandex pants without the "crotch slot"? that would be great solution for our situation

-here is where the perverts hoping to find some random hot girl stripping and doing cat leaps get disappointed-

I posted this in socialize because no matter how serious I am here, does anyone expect serious replies?
Not really, maybe some but it's just so funny sounding I doubt it will get much serious replies.

Me and my friend were just joking around about free running, he doesn't really get it no matter how much I explained it to him so I don't mind joking around with him about free running really same as he doesn't mind when I make soccer jokes.

He was like "Do a naked flip and tell me how amazing it is" I was like "What the f#ck are you smoking?"
We laughed and didn't even think anything of it.

Then I'm getting out of my shower and I'm like "Would it even be that much different?" (lol...) I remember reading about this band of warriors who ALWAYS went into battle naked because when they were fully exposed, they were hyper aware. Kind of like when you're speeding you notice every damn car around you, and whether or not it has government plates when normally you wouldn't notice if the plates were neon pink or not.

So I did a naked front flip.
Oddly enough, it did feel a lot different.



I was literally like super aware of everything. I never un tuck at the exact right time, so far my landings have been kinda iffy, but when I did one naked, I was like completely aware of when I needed to un tuck perfectly. I landed PERFECTLY and realized "Holy shit, you really DO get kinda hyperaware", it was really interesting, to be honest.

Please, even though this is in socialize and a completely odd topic, I'd like some real replies. It is really interesting to me...

i seek this awareness with any clothes i may have on. i have however been getting into the natural method which has led me to climb trees and run around my back yard in boxer briefs. quite a new experience when you can feel 80 percent of your skin touching things like tree bark. i have honestly felt what you feel by doing this, i now seek thinner soled shoes for the lack of padding so that i may feel the ground better. its an interesting concept but i think it might have more to do with adrenaline than wed like to think. after all the whole legality of the situation was brought up and that could make us get pumped up before a move naked (cant believe i just said that)

I'm afraid of crushing my man berries between my legs. It happens enough with sweats, I'm terrified about it naked....

You're doing it wrong if that's happening. I've fallen, flipped, snapped my legs together and a whole lot of other things and I've never had this problem. You think you'd know where they were by now. 

[Andrew"Brick"B.]

Ok, you already made us put pants on, and NOW we have to have nice Abs? You chics are too demanding... 

I agree. Girls want to much from us guys.

[Hazim Salem]

Lol, if girl demands make me better (I mean, why else would you condition your abs?? ) then demands will be met.

.....let's just say I sat to fast and leave it at that.

Done that on a toilet seat...
Twice, somehow.

And when we stretch in gym class... oh god...

[Adam McC]

On the other hand...a guy doing free running in black cargo pants and no shirt... That is appealing. lol

...*scribbles into his little black book*

..I kid.


Interesting discussion! I've noticed something similar. I've also noticed something interesting. A large majority of girls (Hannah as an example) feel most comfortable and free-moving in tight, skin fitting clothes. For example, look at women's Sweatpants. Usually tight in most places, save maybe the ankles. Hannah doesn't like wearing the loose fitting kung fu clothing. Most guys, on the other hand, especially myself, feel comfortable in loose fitting clothes like sweatpants a size too big. I wear the exact same kung fu uniform, and I'd wear those pants all the time if I could. I feel like I can move the smoothest in those loose clothes, not tight clothing.

So, keeping this on track with the topic, could it simply be that we are most comfortable moving in what we are used to wearing? If girls clothing is typically tight (Athletic tights, the high shorts, tight jeans, tight sweatpants) that explains their preference for tight clothing. Men typically wear looser things (normal jeans, sweatpants, basketball shorts, cargo pants) and so they feel the best in those.

As for being naked..... AWESOME.

[Ashley McC]

Adam, whilst most ladies like tight clothing I am not one of those. I feel most comfortable in men's sweats and a slightly baggy t-shirt. I've never liked tight clothing.

[Rebecca Myers]

I much prefer baggy clothing. I hate wearing a singlet. HATE IT. I'd much rather rock guy's sweats. Tight clothing= no sir.

So you mean to tell me you sit on your berries when you stretch? Doing it wrong. I could (Don't think I QUITE can anymore) get into the splits and they'd be fine resting in front of and not UNDER me.

No, but they crunch with an unholy force.
It's eye watering.

You must have massive balls.

[bloodwolf00091]

Thats why you condition your balls to be  BALLS OF STEEL! lol like this guy!

BALLS OF STEEL!
but yes, back to reality, if you want to freerun naked...go for it sounds fun, if not wear clothes. ill stick with my pants, and vest

[Hannah L]

True, Adam, true.  Never thought about the cut of the clothing in general being the influence for it.  Also, could be my dance background, which forced me to wear tighter clothing, and therefore learning to move around in that.
I'm still thinking total nakedness might be a bit uncomfy, but I like the theory behind it.
And this topic always makes me laugh when I see it in "new replies to your posts". 

[Dylan Antonsen]

Not like I compare size in the locker room... so I honestly don't know.
You know that stretch where your left leg goes out straight in front of you and your right leg is angled over the left side of it and you turn your torso to the right?

Crunch.
City.

It is so freakin' painful... I still have to do it both directions in gym...
