| It's kind of silly of me even to make this thread, since it shows how low my self-confidence really is, but I'm doing it anyways...
So, I want to do parkour(sometimes called "street ninja-ing"). To do parkour, I need to be physically fit and fast. I can't really find it within me to get the encouragement to get started, so I kind of need people to cheer me on, especially at the start and whenever you might see that I might be slipping up.
My own little cheerleader squad, maybe even with your outfits?
Wow, that was a doozy.
I won a contest and got a conference call from the guys at BridgeMaker.

| I don't do the whole cheer leader outfit thing anymore, even though I was once a cheer leader back in my elementary school days.
I myself could not push myself to the point of no fear that it really requires to do Parkour. It looks fun and relatively awesome and was once something I looked into doing myself. But in the research that I did on the subject it does take quite a bit of physical prowess as well as a no fear attitude which I have neither of.
More power too you though if you find yourself able to do such a thing I will help motivate in whatever way I can just cause meh I got nothing better to do most of the time lol.

| Well, I have a twin bro, and I'd love to do it in synchrony with him. And it'd look cool. With my current weight(283lb ) I can't do it, or I'd seriously injure myself.

| Well you in theory could do the very basics of it to start getting you ready for it and help you to lose the weight as a form of exercise. If you so wanted. I am not sure what all it really takes anymore it was many years ago that I did said research so I have forgotten most of it.

| Yeah, and, while there's not many places we can do it around here, we'll find places to do it. I just like the idea of not letting things stop you.

| You dont need a cheerleading squad! That fact that you want to do something is great, and the fact that it's athletic is even better (I know I need to get back into shape xD). But you don't need us to start. All you need is the passion to be able to start :3

| The only thing I have a passion for is fod and girls. My shape prevents me from doing well in either.

| *grabs pompoms* I'm not much of a cheerleader, I only did it for two years when I was really young and into things like that, but, I digress,
SO! I shall cheer you on with inspirational quotes!!
"Shoot for the moon my darling, for even if you miss you shall land among the stars" (Ignore the logic error here)
"The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step"
"Never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game"
WOOT!

| I was a chef for a while there. I'm pretty good, but not particularly fast.
I hate how elegant people think cooking is. Professionally, it's more messy than elegant. There are food that are elegant, but they are few and far between.
