While the workout was easily completed, my joints are experiencing some pretty good inflammation from the repetitive workouts over the past two weeks. I think I’m going to have to take a break for a while after my left elbow, which has never caused me a bit of trouble in my life and I’ve often considered my last one good joint, has joined the ranks of other old sports injuries. It’s just too much repetitiveness on some bodies.
Strongly considering going back to 2018 workouts for some CROSStraining CrossFit. Theres more variety to avoid repetitive motion injuries.

This and other recent posts (see 1/12/19, General Physical Preparedness) speak to the importance of definitions.

CrossFit is NOT the optimal intervention for advancing some "traditional" definitions of fitness. (Which the article itself notes in the intro) And so anybody who defines fitness as such will argue against CrossFit, and both feel and be correct in doing so within the framework they operate. To make any progress in the conversation, the core objective needs to be redefined - hopefully something that better tracks whatever INDIRECT objective we're all trying to achieve. (Here, I'd suppose high and durable functionality that is mostly context-independent)

We see the same thing in health contexts. If you define heart disease risk as, say a low total cholesterol level, certain interventions are and aren't going to be seen as effective, even if by other definitions of heart disease risk they would be optimal.

Very often, the most effective high-level intervention follows clearly and simply from that objective. Disputes over nearly any aspect of health, fitness, wellness, etc., seem to just as often follow from disagreements about what our precise objective ought to be as from how best to achieve it. 

27:15
Had bad batteries in the rower, so I just did 10 minutes, 5 minutes and 2:30 minutes. All the rest was RX.

I still remember the controversy this article caused when it first came out. A lot of people were clinging to the "fit for what?" definition of fitness. A powerlifter friend of mine desperately wanted to assert that he was fit by denying the existence of fitness as a separate quality from sport preparedness. The working definitions provided in the 2002 article: the 10 physical skills, the hopper model and the 3 energy systems were the most comprehensive definition of fitness I’d seen at the time.
As good as this 3-part definition was in 2002, Coach greatly improved it by defining fitness as "power output over broad time and modal domains". I think this ended the “fit for what?” debate. Under this definition, fitness is a distinct and measurable entity.
The health-wellness-fitness continuum also sparked some debate. The main counter argument was that you can be fit and apparently healthy on the outside, but die suddenly from a congenital heart defect. The example of an Olympic figure skater was brought up. Other than these ticking time bomb scenarios, I think it's a useful model for explaining the relationship between health and fitness.
Again, I think Coach improved upon the continuum model when he introduced the 3d model of health and fitness. With work and time (lower case t, signifying workout time) graphed on the X and Y axis, you get fitness as the area under the curve. Extend this curve along the z-axis to represent Time (upper case, signifying time over lifespan). The volume under the resulting curve is health. You've now defined both fitness and health in terms of power output.
Previously, fitness was measured using VO2 Max, lactate threshold, body composition, knee extensor strength and other correlates. Health was defined in terms of blood pressure, body comp, triglycerides, cholesterol and other correlates. It’s a big advancement to define both health and fitness in terms of power output.
CrossFit was way ahead of its time in 2002. It's inspiring to see that it's still evolving in 2019.

Worked with strict C2B pull-ups. Also, no rower. Ran instead: 1M, 800M, 400M. 

I like to think that I understand what's going on in this CrossFit thing and the last thing I want to do is mess with the programming. However, over the years, I've developed a real practical fondness for C2B pull-ups. It seems to me that squatting to hip crease below knee is satisfactory, but not a full expression of a squat for an athlete that can squat deeper while maintaining the other POP's. To me, the C2B element is the same. If the body can get there, and is seemingly designed to do so, then why not express it as the new norm. I would never stop myself just below parallel in a squat simply because it meets the standards for competition and consistent measurement. Of course, it causes the workout stimulus to change some... UNTIL the C2B pull-up becomes the new normal and is no more challenging than a traditional, chin-above-the-bar variation. On that note, I can't believe how much stronger my strict pull-ups have become already thanks to the first couple weeks of '19. 

Any thoughts?

It will be interesting to see if this type of programming: strict “Cindy” in slightly different variations with some deadlifts and handstand practice sprinkled in will dominate the Open? I’m starting to feel like in some ways it will. Better get comfortable doing strict movements.

Bingo. Unfortunately, the industries that profit from this condition - both in the cause and treatment - are massive, accounting for (conservatively) 30-40% of GDP in the US alone. Probably more. Think food companies, big pharma, big agra, and healthcare, all of whom get rich by: (1) Manufacturing - ConAgra et al actually get government subsidies for corn, which becomes HFCS; (2) Food - these folks sell products that contain HFCS, which is in virtually every food product in the aisles of your grocery store, which causes the problem; (3) Pharma - a massive industry that creates medications that treat symptoms, but not the underlying cause of the problem; (4) Healthcare - companies like DaVita (dialysis) are fast-growing and make HUGE profits off of diabetes.

Is it a coincidence that Warren Buffet/Berkshire Hathaway is (a) the largest single shareholder of Coca-Cola and its liquid HFCS, (b) an agricultural subsidy guy (the "Wizard of Omaha"!), (c) owner of Dairy Queen (100%), and (d) DaVita - dialysis centers - BH owns 17% of it and the likely successor to Buffet is the CEO of DaVita? Good ol' Warren gets your tax dollars to keep the price of liquid HFCS cheap, puts HFCS in everything you eat, sells you DQ and Coke, and gets your money on dialysis when you're kidneys are failing and dying. Beloved of Progressives and Conservatives alike, too, because he says all the right things and pays all the right people in DC. That's one of the richest people in the world.

I love what’s going on with the programming. So many boxes and the mainsite had gotten focused into the oly-lifts and let’s face it, most people aren’t ready to hit those technical lifts until they’ve done 10,000 air squats and swung 10,000 KBs. This is where CF began and it works. If you’re doubting it, it’s probably exposing a weakness. This also doesn’t forbid you from lifting weights also. Remember: They are smarter than you believe you are.  #TrustTheSystem If you are very good at pull-ups, pushups, squats and rowing, you will be very good at everything else.

In the 2002 article, it states that a blood pressure of 105/55 is consistent with athletes. Also on the facebook page the numbers on a recently posted animation of the wellness continuum are 90/60. What are organized data sets/evidence support these numbers?

I am interested in what is being used to support this because I know that many will initially scoff at the idea that lower-than-normal blood pressure (120/80) can be non-pathological. In my field, whenever low blood pressure/hypotension is discussed it is considered an acute problem. My literature searches regarding blood pressure only seem to result in studies discussing the sickness side of the continuum.

Anecdotally I know this is true in principle, but I believe it would strengthen the idea of wellness as a continuum if the data to support it were published alongside the wellness continuum. (Maybe they have been?) Regarding blood pressure, it would help to clarify the difference between someone with fitness (low blood pressure a result of athleticism, diet) vs someone with disease (low blood pressure caused by hypertension meds, heart disease). Thank you in advance to anyone who can point this out to me.

Hi, please feedback on this one:

I talked my mom into Crossfit. Age 66, Little overweight, hip and knee problems (not really injured, but hurts and no strength)

What do you think about this for her very first workout scale/scaling with bodyweight progressions, mostly from the book "convict conditioning"

Keeping the rep-scheme except for rowing, focus on controlled moves:

-vertical pulls for pull-ups (Standing up-right, holding on a door frame and rowing only slightly to the back)
-Wall push-ups for push-ups
-"granny-squats" for ROM; lying flat with back on floor. Towel under feet. pull feet as Close to the hips as possible, hold under tension, then straighten legs back.
-high pulls with a book or similar, Hands Close together, shoulder width stand, no moving of the legs (Sumo deadlift high pulls without squatting = for rowing) about 10 or so per round.

Then i would look for feedback on ROM, intensity for each move and overall volume. Eventually rest 4 days before the next workout.

What do you think, any better ideas?

Do not have a rower but an assault bike. To preserve the stimulus, recommend using assault bike or run and if assault bike how many cals would be the equivalent? Thank you!

What’s going on? 3/5 previous workouts have these movements, in similar time domains. Where’s the variance? We know strict pull ups should be a priority over kipping. Is the latest programming trying to emphasize simple movements over complex movements to underline the shift in focus from CrossFit? There’s no clarity. Guess we’ll wait for the vlogger’s “sources” to fill us in. 

Several of my professors are members of NSCA or have ties to it. My school has a USA Olympic Training Site. Needless to say they aren’t fond of the students who CrossFit. It was my pleasure to write a paper about the continuum so I could educate them on why we do what we do.  

Champions Club Scaling Notes

STIMULUS: This is one where I think it’s really important to understand “movement factors.” These can include range of motion, speed, fatigue, volume, and competition. Any or all of these factors can be added to movements in an attempt to make it difficult for an athlete to hold the standard. I see this one using cardio/respiratory fatigue as a movement factor to test out the strict movements we’ve been practicing over and over and over and over and over and over since the new year. To preserve the stimulus, the only thing I would scale for most people is the row (or run, in our case). I think if you can make these an all-out effort (or close to it) on the row/run, it will expose a lot of things on the pull-up and push-up station. Use the same “strict” standard you’ve been doing for the past workouts and see how well you can hold yourself to it despite your lungs wanting to explode. If you’re really brave try 5-sec. tempo squats without stopping.

GROUP: On an individual level (and with a well-seasoned group) I like the descending row/ascending gymnastics reps. It serves a good purpose on both stations. For my group I might have like Jay and a few other seasoned kids do rx’d; the rest will probably be something along the lines of: 3 rounds, Run/15/30/45. This keeps the numbers the same and might keep confusion/checking the whiteboard down. Haven’t decided how I’ll do pull-ups yet. I am thinking about breaking out the rings on this one, but kind of want to keep with the bar hang/half range/strict kipping pull-ups we’ve been doing.

INJURY: The row/bike sub works for most people with issues on ground impact. Hollow hold/knees to elbows/sit-ups might be good for squats. One-arm presses and ring rows would not be a bad thing for arm injuries.

I’M SCALING THIS WELL IF: You’re questioning the meaning of life while approaching the second set of the triplet.

I’M SCALING THIS POORLY IF: Wait, what number am I on again?

GENERAL FEAR LEVEL (1=REST DAY, 10=PR-DRIVEN FGB): 8. The last thing you want to do while breathing really heavy is hold your breath even more.

GENERAL EMASCULATING LEVEL (1=WHO DOES RING HSPU ANYWAY?, 10=THIS TEENAGE GIRL IS DEADLIFTING MORE THAN ME): 6. You probably won’t have to scale much, but it’s one of those that looks easier on paper. That is never good.

I’m noticing a theme 🧐
Should be a good challenge.
