I am obsessed with this.

So because parkour is such a ridiculously male dominated sport, the “correct technique” for a lot of these movements that you’re taught when you become an instructor plays to a male body’s strengths: upper body strength, higher center of gravity, etc.

She demolishes this course by moving in ways that make sense for her body. She doesn’t muscle her way up to her over a wall, she just throws a leg up over the wall. She doesn’t use upper body strength to do the salmon ladder, she uses her hips!!! And it’s fucking incredible.

So many girls and young women walk away from parkour because every movement caters to the strengths of men, because doing what makes sense for their bodies is seen as “bad technique” to be trained away.

If pre-transition me had seen this I would have cried tears of joy.

I showed this to my buddy who is super into martial arts and strength training and he said “Most male parkour guys look like they’re flying through space. She looks like she’s swimming through space.” I don’t know anything about parkour but this is cool as hell and I think that’s an apt description

painted my nails candy apple red. and um. apparently? they make scented nail polish now? because my hands smell like a sour apple jolly rancher

It still low-key bothers me that Ethan Winters was literally DECAYING but somehow his swimmers were still active and healthy. Like how tf was my man DEAD but his blood and man juice still fresh ain’t make no sense.

How tf was his blood stale but everything else was fine? Don’t bullshit me I know that shit looked like that ice cream with the vanilla chunks.
