How dangerous is Parkour really?
Thanks to Youtube Parkour became quite popular during the last years. Injuries are often faded out. Scientific studies are mainly missing.
Which techniques are particularly injury-prone? Whereon should beginners especially pay attention? How much experience do you need to jump over an obstacle of a specific height? Which body parts are highly stressed? Do you need special protectors or clothes for Parkour?
This study will go further into these and other questions. There are no commercial or industrial interests. The analysis takes place in a doctoral dissertation at the University of Würzburg (Germany). All results will be published and available for free for anyone interested.
We need your assistance: Help us to find out which medical risks Parkour contains and which not. Please answer the questionnaire no matter if you ever got hurt during training or always remained healthy!
Just take 5 Minutes to fill out the online survey and you are done.
The more people participate the more improves the quality of the study.
Many thanks for your time and help,
