Today nothing really got me totally out of breath except the lunges at the very end and even then I maintained my numbers. I could have done more box jumps but the other times doing tabata L sit have been horribly hard, resulting in asthma or just maxes heart rate/breathing. Not so today. I felt great. Next time I can shoot for 11-12 seconds per round on L sit.

I rewatched this a few months ago and here it is back on the front page. It’s an incredible whirlwind of a presentation. Dr. Connelly really knows his stuff. He goes non-stop for an hour and a half on insulin and as best I can tell, he doesn’t even have notes to read from.

My favorite part is at roughly 8:00 of part 1 when he discusses the calorie balance hypothesis. He completely shatters it using basic reasoning from elementary chemistry/physics. Comparing mass on one side of the equation to energy on the other side simply doesn't work. It’s so obvious once he points it out. If you like this section as much as I did, Zoe Harcombe has done a whole speech on the topic: Kettles, Calories & Energy Balance: What went wrong? by Dr Zoe Harcombe PhD. The human body is nothing like a bomb calorimeter. If you want to understand anything about weight loss, you must understand insulin and the metabolic pathways that drive fat deposition.

Towards the end (30:00 of part 3), he discusses his protein intake, which would be controversial in many circles. Some longevity experts warn against high protein intake, as it stimulates the mTOR pathway. I'd love to see Dr. Connelly debate on this topic.

Some key takeaways:

Part 3 4:10 Get your vitamin D levels tested. Most people are devastingly low. Then figure out a dosing strategy to get them back up.

Part 2 4:30 Glycemia is the biggest threat to health today. The 55% carbohydrate diet is a disaster.

Part 2 24:00 Protein intake is discussed. The RDA recommendations are based on percent of calorie intake (15%). It should be based on bodyweight.

Part 3 8:20 Discusses the importance of triglyceride/HDLc ratio. It’s a cheap, easy blood test that correlates extremely well to insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease outcomes. It’s the best measurement of metabolic health.

I enjoyed the lecture. The information was relayed in very clear manner and I felt that much of what was said made more sense than the calorie theories that make up most of what is commonly taught regarding fat and insulin. There is however some negative press regarding Dr. Connelly’s educational background and his former supplement businesses. I am curious as to the community’s views on the accusations he has faced. Does anyone have more information or insight into the credibility of the information in the videos?

I’m a fan of Tabata workouts and this one provides a good mix of slow and fast movements for a solid workout. This workout is also very easy to perform at home with minimal equipment. If you don’t have a box, or any object to jump on, consider performing a tuck jump. Below are some scaling thoughts: 

Box Jumps: I consider the prescribed height to be low. Use a height that will allow for quick and consistent movement throughout at least the first 4 intervals, if not all intervals. For some athletes, a height of just couple of inches can be a major achievement. I highly recommend NOT modifying to a step-up today. 

L-sit: This will likely be the most challenging movement to perform for full 20 second efforts today. I would like to see at least 1-2 efforts be completed without breaking today. The main variations will be a tuck L-sit, an L-sit with one leg extended, and an L-sit as prescribed with straight legs. If 15-20 seconds cannot be achieved with mentioned variations, this movement can be made easier by performing it from a seated position. 

Handstand Hold: I consider the volume of holds to be reasonable. There is not a prescribed variation today, so I usually assume that the intent is to perform the movement with your back to the wall and provide a freestanding option for advanced athletes. I will look to utilize a handstand variation that allows for consistent 15-20 second efforts on each interval. The main variations to be used are: 
Handstand hold, back to wall.
Handstand hold, facing wall.
Partial handstand hold, facing wall.
Piked handstand hold from the box. 
Overhead plate hold. This variation will be used only in the case that someone cannot get inverted. 

Sit-up: Tabata sit-ups always seems to make my abs sore for a while. Most can perform this movement as prescribed today. If you can’t perform a sit-up, shorten the range of motion or use you hands to assist to the seated position. 

Lunge: Being that there is no specific designation on the style of lunge I will assume that movement is to step-up forward and then use the front foot to push back to the standing position with legs alternating on each rep. With that being said, feel free to perform any lunge variation you want. Most athletes can hit this movement up as prescribed, potentially limit range of motion if needed.

WOD ANALYSIS

Coaching notes
The Tabata interval is 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest for eight intervals.
But I have one QUASTION. Do we have a prescribed rest in crossfit? If NO, So what does the 10-second break mean? 
In fact, the 20 sec all-out work in tabata is crossfit. It is a subset of AMRAP. For example, we use 20 sec AMRAP, then rest for 10 sec and repeat it for 8 sets.

Template: This high volume WOD follows “AMRAP” template, so scoring is based on as many reps as possible.

Form: This WOD includes of 5 movements from gymnastic form. 

Focus: This WOD is focused on the power. In fact, this exercise is focused to improve the power by increasing the worked reps in 20 sec sections.

Purpose: The training purpose is to improving the lactate tolerance and as a result reduces the drop power. This is the main factor for successful in crossfit, which causes athletes finished WODs with at least drop power.

The reason for choosing tabata template: The Tabata interval is 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest for eight intervals. So this can challenge the lactic acid energy pathway for each 20 sec and overall it can to improving the lactate tolerance. 10 seconds of recovery allows us to perform the movements with all-out effort in 20 seconds.

Time to perform: This high power WOD takes about 20 min.

Running a class: Trainers have 40 min to set other parts of class.

Physiology (GPP): Stamina plays a major role in this exercise. Furthermore, Cardiorespiratory, power, strength, flexibility, balance and coordination are challenged.

Physiology (energy pathway): The aerobic system is a dominant energy pathway in this exercise program. Furthermore, short time per set (20 sec) will make use of the lactic acid energy system.

Anatomy:
Box jump: Gluteus maximmaus, Quadriceps, Gastrocnemius, Hamstring, Soleus
Handstand hold: Trapezius, anterior & middle & posterior Deltoid, Triceps
Sit up: Rectus abdominis, Iliacus Psoas, Rectus Femoris
Lunge: Gluteus maximus, Quadriceps, Hamstring, Gastrocnemius, Soleus

GOOD LUCK

Men get 16" & Women 20"?  Bout time

Globo/home scale:   This one depends on equipment availability and ability.  If you have something to do L sit holds on (either a dip device/rings, 2 boxes/chairs, or hanging) and are proficient, do them.  Same goes for HS holds.  If not, sub hollow rock holds and plank holds.  For the box jumps, if you don't have a platform to jump on sub squat jumps or tuck jumps. 

▶ INTENDED STIMULUS
The first thing you see here is intensity, of course. But go beyond that. This is a test of discipline. If you need one objective today, let it be this: commit to working the whole 20 seconds of each interval. For that to happen, you need two things: scale the L-sits so that you have a fighting chance to hold them for 20 seconds (tucks are an excellent option here), and don't go out drunk on the first sets. The height on the box is meant to be low for you. By no means you are going full speed right from the beginning, but you should be able to keep a pretty high cadence (12+). For the handstand hold pick a variation that you can control very well, but that will make you fight the las three intervals. On the sit-ups, go slow on the descent, and don't use the arms on the ascent, your abs will love you and hate you. After that, it comes down to your grit. Doing lunges without core power will be harder than expected, keep grinding them! This is one hell of a workout. KILL IT!

MAIN DECISION
Do you really have the stamina (Kanye) in these movements to make the tabata intervals honest?

NEW TO CROSSFIT VERSION
As is.

WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS
Box jump - jumping, accuracy, small range of motion compared to usual
L-sit - pulling from the hips, static hold
Handstand hold - pushing, overhead, static hold
Sit-up - pulling from the hips, global flexion, getting up off the ground
Lunge - squatting, unilateral loading, sort of locomotion

WHAT ABOUT THE REPS
The tabata interval assumes, for the most part, you will be able to spend the entire 20 seconds working

LEARN TO COOK
If you be splitting up the reps and resting a lot, then I'd think about doing 4 minutes of each exercise, no rest. If you wanted to take stamina more out of the picture then you could do 2 rounds of 4 cycles, or just rotate each time.
