Bioneer, sir; in yer videos related to brİain and mind progress, ye always forget to mention the very most important things: intellectual endevours, and guys plz read these carefully and do try to implement it on yer lives. The intellectual endevours can be constituted in 4 or 5 categories: 1- Philosophy/theology 2- Natural sciences 3- Social sciences 4- Arts 5- Applicable sciences These are all the fields that are about the "content" of existence; meaning these are about the essence of existence itself therefore; being busy with these not only makes the mind and imagination and analytical skills and verbal skills and awareness (and other fields of the soul, if there's such a thing as soul) much sharper and stronger and detailed; but also gives us information, content information of existence as a whole and its parts. Thus; both reading, consuming these areas, and trying to produce these, meaning trying to add to these areas; are helpful in countless aspects. THese areas mostly are directed towards the target of making us closer and closer to "the wisdom, the truth", maybe we can only exclude the 5th category from this, as the fields on that category are more like tools, rather than being on the existence and its parts themselves; but even the 5th category helps us understand the existence much better, by getting connected to the fields in the first 4 categories. Thus, to improve mind and soul; these intellectual areas are the key and essential points; but of course; strategy games and hobbies such as chess, GO, sudoku, carpentry, gardening, photography eand all that other stuff do help too as great supporters, but never are theythe essentials. One thing I will mention here is arts category, the 4rd one, as people don't know how to approach and conume art-cvlture at all, well the most people. Ye don't just scroll on a painting or a cinema movie fer example; no. Instead; first and foremost ye read some basics on that art area, just to get a bit sense of what it is in general. Then, ye look at a painting; ye observe, ye try to realize different colors and shapes, ye try to realize what is studied and told in the painting craft, ye try to get the soul state that the art tries to give. Ye realize its content and ways. Then of course, ye refer to the professional on that area, about the analysis of that particular art work. Ye do that fer all art areas; cinema, theatre, painting, sculpture, architecture, dancing, music, opera, calligraphy, lieral arts, martial arts etc.... Well, actually the ART SIDE of the martial arts are included in dancing anyways......
Started training like Batman 20 years ago in battered garage lifting rocks and doing brutal bodyweight exercises still doing it to this day at 53 years old!!!
John Cena was a guest on Seamus's Celtic Warrior Workout channel and he talks about initially spending most of his time powerlifting/powerbuilding, but then he did some movies in China and when he worked out with Chinese trainers, he started focusing much more on mobility and flexibility. He said he lost a tiny bit of strength, but also lost all sorts of pain and stiffness he had over the years.
Yep, when I first started training, all I wanted to be was an "action hero" like Batman, but a lot of fitness advice doesn't seem to translate to that. When you do start training with more purpose and focusing on improving performance that actually translates into the real world, training becomes a lot more rewarding and fun.
I trained like a "bodybuilder" for 17 years religiously and by the end I had chronic knee, lower-back, shoulder and wrist problems all my right side. I started functional training 9 years ago to address these imbalances and they have all virtually gone away. This channel has helped me learn more about that process. The Bioneer's intellectual approach is the real deal. Thank you!
I'm actually incorporating your content into my homeschool curriculum for my kids (as well as using it myself). Prepareding the next generation for resilience is something I've seen as necessary.
I’m not judging, or questioning your ability as a parent (I’m only a 19 year old boy, what do I know) but are you sure that keeping them coddled up in homeschooling is the best to develop their resilience? Just a thought I had that I decided to ask, because it’s the internet. I just think it’s important for kids to be socialized. I hope to be a good dad one day (not until I’m like 30).
@Kenny36905 fair (and refreshingly intelligent) question. I've thought about the balance between curriculum and socializing. It's not easy for sure. For the lifestyle we lead, it works, and they do have social interactions with their peers, just not on a "forced-to-be-next-to-another-daily" scale. They have freedoms, but also responsibilities that go well with said freedoms.
@@Kenny-o6iyou’re repeating things you’ve heard that are not true. We homeschool and our kids are well socialized, public education is 100% not what is best for kids. You know your own children far better than they do and care about them far more, it starts there.
"The master has mastered the art of always being the student" from Christ mind trilogy. Sort of encapsulates the approach. I like that too. Still learning myself.
most likely not...since most people have a hoarding mindset: objects, finances, ideas, knowledge. they don't even bother SHARING valuable information w/ others
He isn't remarkable. He makes money off videos depicting what may or may not be true to life. If you think an influencer or workout guru is the pinnacle of humanity, you have your priorities out of whack
Started watching you 5 years ago in the trauma unit. Shattered hip shattered pelvis broken right shoulder and other injuries. Over 100000 pushups and 100000 pullups later I am back at 57 years young never give up. Thanks for all the motivation I'll never be like young but I'll never quit trying.
I feel ya. Everybody I meet says they wanna train all functional but all they do is lift. It's boring. Running, jumping, climbing, swimming, bodyweight exercises and martial arts. Now that's fun training. 👊
Fr. Like I get there are different exercises with different machines, but you’re still just sitting down or staying in the same place most of the time. I used to train like that but then I got really bored after 3 years, now I’m being called weak by bodybuilders but I can run faster, lift awkward objects better, and fight better, while also having the time of my life every time I train.
@@Eltiburonmma When I was Thai boxing, my mates brother started training and he was previously weight training. His punches were weak and yet me being smaller could punch twice as hard. Weights ain't everything.
@@Jdm5299 who cares. My point was that people say they want to be more functional/athletic and then they JUST lift weights and do nothing else. Then they try boxing or something and wonder why they're not good at it.
@@Jdm5299 I've been training and doing combat sports for years. Weight training has a lot of functional carry over. BUT MY POINT WAS, I've known many people say they want to be like superheroes or fighters and then just proceed to lift weights. They have no cardio, they usually can't fight, they just look like they can do stuff but surprisingly can't.
It's actually really refreshing to have a follow up with findings and "conclusions" like a full on sports/performance science experiment. I've gone back and watched your videos a number of times when I've needed that kick to get moving or refresh my mind about something. So, this is a really solid touch.
Good job dude, you should be proud of yourself. It’s not often someone can hit a long term goal. Keep up the good work, your approach has been very inspiring for me.
I like how he leaves his sponsorships until the end of the videos. Goes to show he really cares for the people he trains and isn't only into TH-cam fitness for the money, and also prefers to allow us to choose whether we want to see more on the subject. It also saves us from skipping the video to the precise moment to watch the video. This guy is amazing. Props to him for being a genuinely about the people. 👏🏼
I'm so glad to have been a fellow bioneer for the past 3+ years! I have tried many things from the videos, blogs, and books, and what I've added to my PT tool chest, have me a world of difference to my skills and abilities! Thank you so much, for all you do, and for recording and sharing it with the world, Adam! Excelsior!
It’s amazing seeing how far your journey has come. Watching you over the years is inspiring for someone like me who has always valued being well rounded as a person. Thank you
This is the coolest video I have seen in a long time. Great job, not only on the video but on your journey in the past 5 years. Quite motivating as well.
I love this channel, absolutely refreshing. I’ve always tried to cross train and while I’m not as big as some guys I work with I can use a sledgehammer and climb a ladder twice as well. This morning I’m off to run, hill sprint and work some press ups and hopefully find some where to do some pull ups 💪
As I've gotten older, it's humbling to notice how quickly movement patterns get more difficult to do. Also, strength and muscle loss, and the fat sneaks up fast. Training becomes even MORE important as one ages. I don't care how much I squat or bench; I care how I move, my health, cardio levels, and overall strength.
i look up to you. like i genuinely look up you. I just wanted to say thanks. I don't really know how to put it into words but you're maybe one of the three people i've looked up to in my entire life so, thanks
people tend to forget that batman trained as an assassin when he was with Ras, Ras also trained his mind, his awareness, he did not train to be another superman.
Thanks for everything, Adam. Been watching you for a long time and you helped me to love training, to have fun with training. Gotta say I got chill at 11:43, that line reminded of a line in Sun-ken Rock: "In this world the only thing I truly own... Is the body I shape every day."
It is always great to see your outlook on training. I need mobility because of an injury and I utilize quite a few things I have learned from your channel. I'm also a nerd too so your correlation of nerd subculture with physical subject matter is always entertaining. Keep pushing!
truly one of the most unique channels on youtube: I procrastinate to watch your videos because I always learn something new on them and have to take notes! you've made amazing videos on these years bro, and I'm sure it'll keep like that
I know this is an older video. But you haven’t been showing up on my normal searches. So I looked you up again. It’s a really good refresher. And very good advice. I’m 54 here in California and I’ve been using your techniques 2+yrs now. Good info cheers
You're a legend. This training just makes sense. Great knowledge is learnt through experience, trial and error. I'm 32 and it takes time to realise exercise is about continuously striving forward to making your body a tool to improving the quality of life. Prevent injury and cure stagnation. Looking forward to more content and 1 mil subs.
Wow. Have not seen your channel is sum time. Blown away at how much you have grown from your first sponsorship, serial. Doing great job and looking great. Love your content.
Red Hood training program sounds great! But I'd love to see an update to the Nightwing program. He's quite an interesting character physically, because he's generally a bit lighter and relies more on agility and flexibility. I've also started training eskrima, which is the stick based martial art he does. Its a cognitively challenging art because both your arms could be holding different weapons (stick +knife), while doing completely independent movement patterns.
FMA feels like a cognitive booster! I young man I coach in Baguazhang sometimes shares his FMA drills & principals with me, and we train isolated movements in coordinated repetition at different speeds & intensities (Gongfu style). Its a blast coordinating your movement with another person dynamically as well. Great stuff, keep it up!
Night wing training should more agilty based, red hood training would be more weapon based, batman training would be all in all. From physical training to mental training, from martial arts to vehicle repair. from mastering skills to knowledge. You can't be a complete polymath like batman but you can try and improve yourself without limits.
GOAT!!! You've made a great inpact! I looked up to you a lot while in my teens and took many advices from your channel. Good luck on your never ending journey!
Love this video & inspirational 💪🏻 keep up the great work & have a awesome day brother 🙌🏻😊I wish to sustain a well rounded life & be healthy as possible. Here's to 2024🎉
Love ya, Bioneer! You are always knowledgeable and thoughtful about the human body and mind. It still bring back the same conclusion for me after rewatching some your videos. Give other exercises a go besides your main one when you can and see what works, and what doesn't work. Also, rest is more important. Nothing wrong with winding down and letting your body recover. P.S. been creative with a 60 lb sandbag lately. It's so fun trying different movements with it. Especially throwing it up in the air and catching it 6 to ten times (damn it's a tough one). Anyway, hope you are having a good 2024 so far!
I have enjoyed this exploration into functional training. I'm personally more on the Primal side of things trying to integrate Qi Gong, Martial Arts, Mobility, and Calisthenics to reverse-engineer the Daoyin. You've been very inspirational as to what's possible in this content space; not just in terms of your knowledge, but your humanity. As a father I'm thankful to see another father out there doing his best to cultivate themselves. For me, the body is not the final frontier, but the gateway towards It. In the poetry of William S. Burroughs; "The body is a vessel, one that you will lay upon the Far Shore. Its full of holes! It's full of holes."
As long as you're a Saiyan then there's nothing wrong jumping off buildings... just advance one building level at a time and bring sensu beans. This improves toughness.
9:11 Hajime no Ippo moment 😄 Thank you for all the work you do Adam, this is very inspiring to hear you review your thoughts on your approach. Super excited for the Red Hood video!
Protect this man at all costs. This channel has been such a treasure over the years and he never fails to deliver quality content and the right approach to fitness. Thank you
"I'll be working on a Red Hood training program" - Best news I've herd on TH-cam lately! Thanks and congratulations for being BY FAR the best fitness channel around!
ok thanks, A LOT it's always a great deal to watch, listen and do what you always teach in these videos I feel very complete with these kinds of teachings .coming from you i hope to have more videos like the ones you make thanks a lot very much
it's crazy, i found your channel about five years ago or so and remember when this first began. i was extremely interested and then life happened. this type of training has always been something i've want to come back to, but when i was younger i would get distracted by wanting to just be as strong and big as possible. now that i'm older, here i am again. i've been changing up routines and training plans/diets for years to achieve results, but i've always been drawn back to functional training because i knew it was what i wanted to transition to as i got older instead of risking injury. i think at this point though i am ready to make the switch and start working on my functionality and longevity instead of just pure strength and mass. i was a cardio machine when i was younger, and i think because of that i always desired to get big and strong since that was lacking from my personal fitness/physique. it's interesting this video was suggested, although i guess not completely random, cause i've been searching for a new program to implement in order to achieve actual performance and a better quality of life. anyways, thank for the content, and i will for sure be diving into your videos again and purchasing your ebook to start this new journey.
I've been watching your Batman series all along the way and you've inspired me to take huge leaps in my training and philosophy around training. I loved Superfunctional Fitness! Thanks for everything you do!
Thank you for throwing these ideas out there and testing them. I really do believe aiming for function can be fun. I find this channel really interesting and refreshing.
Funny I've been training like this my entire life since I was in my teens. This is pretty much what I do. A mixture of calisthenics body weight training overcoming isometrics and some weight training. It's how I've trained my whole life. So this is really cool. Good for you man that's good stuff. Maximizing strength while keeping an aesthetic athletic and flexible build. I've used everything from giant tractor tires heavy bags and even brake pads. And I'm 41 years old today and I'm still built and can perform like I was in my twenties.
A sincere thank you for these videos. Currently trying to transition from Bodybuilding and strength training to Functional. Looking forward to more videos!
your videos are always interesting. i have trained my entire life in a variety of disciplines and i'll be 70 this year. i might be a bit of a program hopper, but i've found it difficult to train efficiently in contradictory directions simultaneously. but, i still strive to be well rounded, as difficult as that is to achieve.
Bioneer,love you bro! Been watching you for years,I've always had this same approach to training since I was a child and I honestly feel like you've just beaten me too it,getting the info out there first. You're an inspiration to watch and I mean that genuinely I look forward to your progress and more of your journey.
Couldnt agree more with this. From teenage years of Parkour to 4 years in the Army Infantry to on going Martial arts training has definitely given me a physical variety and edge. A lot of people look at me and think I'm slow and lack agility cause I'm 5'9 and 100kg and stocky but they always get a surprise. Current goals are definitely lose 10kg and get better hip mobility.
I love your approach that includes training the mind and every aspect of movement. I focus a lot on strength as I believe it to be the cornerstone of health and fitness, but I have also seen the sacrifices people make like lack of mobility and cardio. Clients I've worked with show growth not only in their strength numbers and muscle mass but also in their confidence outside the gym. The crossover is profound and training the mind will also help when it comes to testing your limits in the gym or facing your fears outside of it.
This video came when I needed it most. I’ve been doing weight-training, various high intensity training alongside judo and boxing for about 2 years - and recently i’ve just felt completely burnt out. The ceiling of life, especially being a parent, really woke me up. I’ve definitely learnt that it’s not necessarily taking your foot off the pedal, it’s reducing the speed that’s important.
My daughter has been competing in gymnastics for years. Alot of what was shown in this video is how they train. In my opinion, gymnastics is the most well-rounded sport above every other. They also have mental training. It's very well balanced. This is my first time on this channel, awesome video, very inspirational and honest. Great Job.
tip for the punching, try to turn your fist more, like rotate your fist so its horizontal so it lands with your knuckles facing up, i could help you get those parkour moves done the right way aswell

Red Hood training program sounds great! But I'd love to see an update to the Nightwing program. He's quite an interesting character physically, because he's generally a bit lighter and relies more on agility and flexibility. I've also started training eskrima, which is the stick based martial art he does. Its a cognitively challenging art because both your arms could be holding different weapons (stick +knife), while doing completely independent movement patterns.
FMA feels like a cognitive booster! I young man I coach in Baguazhang sometimes shares his FMA drills & principals with me, and we train isolated movements in coordinated repetition at different speeds & intensities (Gongfu style). Its a blast coordinating your movement with another person dynamically as well. Great stuff, keep it up!
Wait there's a red hood program?
Night wing training should more agilty based, red hood training would be more weapon based, batman training would be all in all. From physical training to mental training, from martial arts to vehicle repair. from mastering skills to knowledge. You can't be a complete polymath like batman but you can try and improve yourself without limits.
GOAT!!! You've made a great inpact! I looked up to you a lot while in my teens and took many advices from your channel. Good luck on your never ending journey!
Love this video & inspirational 💪🏻 keep up the great work & have a awesome day brother 🙌🏻😊I wish to sustain a well rounded life & be healthy as possible. Here's to 2024🎉
This is probably the first time i'm watching you but you're already in my favorite youtubers list because of this video.
Love ya, Bioneer! You are always knowledgeable and thoughtful about the human body and mind. It still bring back the same conclusion for me after rewatching some your videos. Give other exercises a go besides your main one when you can and see what works, and what doesn't work. Also, rest is more important. Nothing wrong with winding down and letting your body recover. P.S. been creative with a 60 lb sandbag lately. It's so fun trying different movements with it. Especially throwing it up in the air and catching it 6 to ten times (damn it's a tough one). Anyway, hope you are having a good 2024 so far!
I have enjoyed this exploration into functional training. I'm personally more on the Primal side of things trying to integrate Qi Gong, Martial Arts, Mobility, and Calisthenics to reverse-engineer the Daoyin. You've been very inspirational as to what's possible in this content space; not just in terms of your knowledge, but your humanity. As a father I'm thankful to see another father out there doing his best to cultivate themselves. For me, the body is not the final frontier, but the gateway towards It. In the poetry of William S. Burroughs; "The body is a vessel, one that you will lay upon the Far Shore. Its full of holes! It's full of holes."
amazing video. you are honestly transforming people's lives. thank you for everything you carefully do friend.
Came for the title, stayed for the music 👌🏽 LP for life 🙌🏼 Awesome video bro!
I see from your profile pic that you are a man of taste 👍🏻
This is exactly why I follow you. You got me on a how to train like batman video late 2022
Great vid, really enjoyed it. Every time I watch a video of yours I get inspired to do better and work out more. Thank you!
I trained like Batman for 7.2 years. Here is what I learned- don’t jump off of buildings. It’s total bs.
Forget your Bat-Hook?
Sounds like a skill issue
As long as you're a Saiyan then there's nothing wrong jumping off buildings... just advance one building level at a time and bring sensu beans. This improves toughness.
You're not CatWoman, silly
@@saraseveryn8650 He's not Batman either if he can't advance buildings.
That was inspiring, as usual. Thanks!
I’d like it if you discussed psycholgy of training at least once in a while. Love your videos.
Very inspirational video man, keep doing what you do and good luck on your journey 💪
5:30 Editing and cinematography is on point 👏🤯
Been waiting for the next Batman video! Very exciting! Let’s get to 1mil subs!
9:11 Hajime no Ippo moment 😄
Thank you for all the work you do Adam, this is very inspiring to hear you review your thoughts on your approach.
Super excited for the Red Hood video!
Protect this man at all costs.
This channel has been such a treasure over the years and he never fails to deliver quality content and the right approach to fitness.
Thank you
Ha! He seems highly capable of protecting himself.
Your cross punch has improved substantially. Kudos to Grant.
This is an amazing and inspiring video. I and many others will walk away from this video better and happier for it.
Great video Adam ,best fitness influencer out there !
Looks like you might have inadvertently been prepping for what's to come matey 👍💪
So glad you're here, Adam. For all those who wanted to "be something", instead of just "posing". Many thanks ✊🏼👏🏼
"I'll be working on a Red Hood training program" - Best news I've herd on TH-cam lately! Thanks and congratulations for being BY FAR the best fitness channel around!
ok thanks, A LOT it's always a great deal to watch, listen and do what you always teach in these videos I feel very complete with these kinds of teachings .coming from you i hope to have more videos like the ones you make thanks a lot very much
it's crazy, i found your channel about five years ago or so and remember when this first began. i was extremely interested and then life happened. this type of training has always been something i've want to come back to, but when i was younger i would get distracted by wanting to just be as strong and big as possible. now that i'm older, here i am again. i've been changing up routines and training plans/diets for years to achieve results, but i've always been drawn back to functional training because i knew it was what i wanted to transition to as i got older instead of risking injury.
i think at this point though i am ready to make the switch and start working on my functionality and longevity instead of just pure strength and mass. i was a cardio machine when i was younger, and i think because of that i always desired to get big and strong since that was lacking from my personal fitness/physique. it's interesting this video was suggested, although i guess not completely random, cause i've been searching for a new program to implement in order to achieve actual performance and a better quality of life.
anyways, thank for the content, and i will for sure be diving into your videos again and purchasing your ebook to start this new journey.
been inhalling fitness knowledge for the last decade, this is one of the best videos I've seen. 9 min in and I'm totally down with every word
I've been looking for some good books to read recently, now I have plenty of titles in my wishlist, thanks Adam!
I've been watching your Batman series all along the way and you've inspired me to take huge leaps in my training and philosophy around training. I loved Superfunctional Fitness! Thanks for everything you do!
I’ve been watching you for a couple years now, and I have to say that your fighting skills have improved dramatically over time. Impressive
Thank you for throwing these ideas out there and testing them. I really do believe aiming for function can be fun. I find this channel really interesting and refreshing.
I love the hierarchy since I always have to see something on paper. You’re a beast!
That’s actually really inspiring, thanks.
Super inspirational Adam! You’ve open my eyes yet again! To how beautiful movement can be
Your a certified legend and one the rare humans who TRULY is an inspiration!
PLEASSE get this wonderful man a milly, he deserves it. and i HAVE to see the new batman program 😭
that was such a great video, super well done, super inspiring, super genuine. thank you! might buy your protocol soon.
Fantastic overview.
Thank you for sharing so much value, I've learned a lot from you.
@10:06 “don’t role-play high-performance” is such a perfect quote that I’m 1000% going to start using.
Funny I've been training like this my entire life since I was in my teens. This is pretty much what I do. A mixture of calisthenics body weight training overcoming isometrics and some weight training. It's how I've trained my whole life. So this is really cool. Good for you man that's good stuff. Maximizing strength while keeping an aesthetic athletic and flexible build. I've used everything from giant tractor tires heavy bags and even brake pads. And I'm 41 years old today and I'm still built and can perform like I was in my twenties.
The Sasaki-Rokkaku-shi have made a note of your work. Impressive.
Amazing you gave me a whole new perspective on my training
A sincere thank you for these videos. Currently trying to transition from Bodybuilding and strength training to Functional. Looking forward to more videos!
your videos are always interesting. i have trained my entire life in a variety of disciplines and i'll be 70 this year. i might be a bit of a program hopper, but i've found it difficult to train efficiently in contradictory directions simultaneously. but, i still strive to be well rounded, as difficult as that is to achieve.
Thanks for all the inspiration and information over the years!
Underrated video this should have 10+ million views
Fantastic video bioneer. You’re a huge inspiration for me and many others
Dude, i found your channel when you first got started. Its been so cool to observe your journey. I get excited everytime i see a new video.😊
Bioneer,love you bro! Been watching you for years,I've always had this same approach to training since I was a child and I honestly feel like you've just beaten me too it,getting the info out there first. You're an inspiration to watch and I mean that genuinely I look forward to your progress and more of your journey.
I found this video very cool and full of good points and motivation. Good job there man! Hype! 🎉❤
Thank you bioneer for all of your content. Definitely one of a kind
Couldnt agree more with this. From teenage years of Parkour to 4 years in the Army Infantry to on going Martial arts training has definitely given me a physical variety and edge. A lot of people look at me and think I'm slow and lack agility cause I'm 5'9 and 100kg and stocky but they always get a surprise. Current goals are definitely lose 10kg and get better hip mobility.
I love your approach that includes training the mind and every aspect of movement. I focus a lot on strength as I believe it to be the cornerstone of health and fitness, but I have also seen the sacrifices people make like lack of mobility and cardio. Clients I've worked with show growth not only in their strength numbers and muscle mass but also in their confidence outside the gym. The crossover is profound and training the mind will also help when it comes to testing your limits in the gym or facing your fears outside of it.
Get this man a cape! Great video and very informative.
ROAD TO 1 MILLION!
Just subscribed. I would like to add that a Punisher training regime is challenging, but easier to maintain.
Powerful content Adam ! Thank you very much !
"Don't roleplay high performance" is SUCH a great quote. So much complexity in one short sentence.
This video came when I needed it most. I’ve been doing weight-training, various high intensity training alongside judo and boxing for about 2 years - and recently i’ve just felt completely burnt out. The ceiling of life, especially being a parent, really woke me up. I’ve definitely learnt that it’s not necessarily taking your foot off the pedal, it’s reducing the speed that’s important.
Bioneer is such a dope name 💯🔥
Absolutely love this!
My daughter has been competing in gymnastics for years. Alot of what was shown in this video is how they train. In my opinion, gymnastics is the most well-rounded sport above every other. They also have mental training. It's very well balanced. This is my first time on this channel, awesome video, very inspirational and honest. Great Job.
tip for the punching, try to turn your fist more, like rotate your fist so its horizontal so it lands with your knuckles facing up, i could help you get those parkour moves done the right way aswell
