How to improve physical condition for Parkour?

I just discovered parkour, and would really love to start it (for the right reasons though). Unfortunately I’m not in good physical condition. I know that many excersises use weights, and other equipment but I was wondering if I could use tabata-based training without weights to improve strength and endurance, and if not, are there any other excersises that don’t use equipment?
Thanks

I agree with Mo Di’s suggestions. I just wanted to add that one of the great things About Parkour is that it encourages using your own body and your environment to improve your physical fitness. I have never, ever, ever used any special Equipment For Parkour conditioning. The strength and conditioning component of most of our training session focuses a lot on push-ups, wall hangs, core strengthening, lunge walking, etc. And of course, you should start Parkour training anyway and work on increasing your fitness as you go.
