“In the United States, nearly 1 in 4 young adults (24 percent) and close to 1 in 5 adolescents (18 percent) have prediabetes, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A CDC official described these numbers as ‘evidence of a growing epidemic.’ Someone with prediabetes has a blood sugar, or glucose, level that is higher than normal but not high enough for a diabetes diagnosis. But health experts say that some of the damaging effects of diabetes — on the heart, blood vessels and kidneys, for instance — can begin with prediabetes. … Although people with prediabetes often go on to develop full-fledged diabetes, that’s not inevitable. Lifestyle changes — such as more exercise, weight loss and healthier eating — can bring blood sugar levels back to normal.”

Commented on: "Growing Epidemic": 24% of Young Adults in U.S. May Have Prediabetes, CDC Says
Time to think twice before “letting kids just be kids”. Why are teens and young adults being affected with what once took years to develop? At these rates?
The environment that our kids are currently growing up in is the perfect recipe to develop prediabetes, diabetes, and chronic disease. Start with the processed cereals as a first food, then pouches to inhale without even chewing, followed by crackers, candy, Gatorade, lemonade, juice, sodas, granola bars, chips, and maybe dessert. They are surrounded by foods hijacked by big business all day long. Add to it 2-4 hours of screen time per day. On the couch and on the carbs.
The good news is it’s preventable and reversible. But it takes....well parenting. What will happen if we stop buying sodas, sports drinks and crackers for our kids? I’ll tell you.....no one has ever come to my office ill due to a lack of processed foods or sugar. Next time you go to the store, ask yourself if it’s a growing food. The job of a parent is to teach kids what foods are, how they help their bodies, and a lifelong healthy relationship with food. Not to buy them every poison they want.
I’ll add that family dinners (at home) are a great way to teach kids how to cook real foods, spend time with the kids, and create an environment that’s healthy for their bodies and minds.

Champions Club Scaling Notes
RANT
Nothing to rant about off the top of my head.
PURPOSE
Get a little bit of fatigue in before hitting the lift. The thruster is what athletic people do with front squats, so the added press should challenge our squatting and jumping mechanics as well.
NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE
Complete as many rounds as possible in 12 minutes of:
8 thrusters
:15 L-sit
TRAINING SCALE
Go sub-max on the weight (still heavy, though) and make all 7 sets at that same weight. You could also go a little lighter and play around with less rest to exaggerate stamina. Or do the handstand descent before each set to get the stamina effect.
PRACTICE SCALE
Do the thrusters with your shoes off so you can feel the arches in your feet better, also hang out at the top position for a bit longer than usual
INJURY SCALE
Pick two of the SLIPS you can do and go back and forth with them for about a half hour
GROUP SCALE
Set time caps (30-45 seconds) for the sets and go at it for about 40 minutes, throw some L-sits (bottom of squat) and scales (arches in the feet) in between. The time cap lets lighter weight people do more reps.
WARMUP:
SLIPS and maybe a few squats here and there
GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 3

INTENDED STIMULUS
.
Heavy thrusters are the bomb! We are usually so intimidated by this movement. Most athletes feel like it is incredibly heavy. Going heavy here will demystify this lift for you. Don't make up your mind today on how heavy you are going. Have a loose template, and while the weight is moving well, go up! As you might already know, the thruster is just a front squat followed by a push press. Both lifts require a very vertical and upright torso, as well as a robust balance foundation. "Rocking chair feet", "stripper butt", "good morning squats," and poor rack positions will all be heavily punished today. This lift is like an overhead squat; it will bring out all the things that could be better in your mechanics. If this lift is super challenging for you today, that's great! Record yourself and find what aspect of your mechanics you should be working on. Athletes new to the thruster should work on drills to build the movement, options below.
Today for your SLIPS practice, try to use an implement you have not recently used. Focus on waking up the core as well as stretching the shoulders. Get yourself ready for the thruster. Get tight!
▶ PARALLETTE SLIPS
Rest 0:45 to 1:00 between sets
3-5 sets
5-10 Parallettes Gymnastics Push-up
then
3-5 sets
10-12 Low L-sit to Reverse Plank (use slider)
then
3-5 sets
20-30 seconds Parallette Plank with Tucked Leg
then
3-5
20-30 seconds Parallette Handstand Hold (use wall as needed)
▶ THURSTERS
3-5 sets
3 Jerk Dips + 3 Jerk Drives + 3 Push Presses
Load: light
3-5 sets
3 Front Squats + 3 Push Presses + 3 Thursters
Load: light to light/moderate. Only increase if mechanics are there.
then work on sets of 5 thrusters. Focus on just one aspect of the lift, and go as heavy as possible while the main points of performance are there.

Really proud of the work here. Explosive movement, great form, great back and an engagement, especially using the back NOT the arms and shoulders to get the bar the rest of the way. Hit my PR at the end, so it may be time to try again and see what my thruster PR now is!

Globo scale: if you have bumper plates go to town. Consider cleaning from the ground into the thruster for the first rep. If without bumpers do this one in a rack up to a heavy but controlled triple. If without a barbell do ascending weight sets of 3 dumbbell thrusters. If you max out the dumbbells do AMRAP sets for any remaining sets. SLIPS as Rxed.
