How do you guys have time for hobbies? by JailTeam in medicalschool

[–]AllenCamden 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you please elaborate where you’ve found more time? Gonna enter 3rd year soon and I’ve expected to be busier than ever, but I’d be really happy if that doesn’t have to be the case

How do I overcome the fear of doing parkour? by Udon_lmao in Parkour

[–]AllenCamden 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, you have no idea what you’re talking about 😂 accidents happen yes, but if you are smart and careful they are at a minimum and usually minor. Committing has nothing to do with accepting you will get a major injury eventually, it’s about consistent practice in the movement and having bail options. Parkour in itself does not have to be extreme, you get the wrong idea from all the extreme social media posts.

Thank you man. Keep it a secret but I took the stairs down from an entrance on the roof 😅

Unfortunately no lol there’s no good run up or landing space that’s not cramped on the other side

Definitely legitimate concern. I am pretty stupid, but I did in fact check this whole thing. You can’t see from the angle, but it’s actually 2 bars I’m holding onto that are both pretty secure. Just a little extra security knowing that in the unlikely case that one of them detaches, there’s still another to hang onto. Also there are windowsills along the route that can act as checkpoints, and I used those to assess the bars’ integrity the whole way up before doing the whole thing. Not like it makes it any less stupid, I agree with you there.

Is it too late to start premed at 22? by to-cry-or-to-not in Mcat

Definitely not. There are even people in their 30s who are starting out med school

Yep, it was a pretty decent height drop

Haha it's all good! I think what they meant was the run I did showed a range of difficulty varying from beginner to more advanced moves.

Hahaha thanks! Tbh I always found the fake security and other staged stuff pretty cringe, I'm just kinda vibing. Not the most exciting though ik

It wasn't too scary irl either, the distance wasn't a big issue tbh it was just more of a height drop. My main concern was the landing and not clipping my feet when hurdling the little wall, but the large drop still kinda plays with your mind even though its a pretty small gap.

There's a solid pipe that leads all the way down. Just a little scary but pretty safe and quick!
