Scaling:
Experienced athletes should go as heavy as possible for each set of 5. Newer athletes should practice solid mechanics. Watch “The Deadlift” and “The Bench Press” to review the points of performance for each movement.

My wife was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease 2 years ago, when she was 62. She had a stooped posture and tremors; her right arm did not move and also a pulsating feeling in her body. She was placed on Sinemet for 6 months, and then Siferol was introduced and replaced the Sinemet. Neither standard treatment like B1 and high dose B12. I took her off Siferol (with the doctor’s knowledge) and started her on the Ibogaine-5 protocol we ordered; her symptoms totally declined over 16 weeks of use of the Ibogaine-5 protocol. She is now almost 65 and doing very well; the disease is totally reversed! I got the Ibogaine-5 from this website ww w. limitless naturalwellness .co m
I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease a year ago at the age of 67. For several months I had noticed tremors in my right hand and the shaking of my right foot when I was sitting. My normally beautiful cursive writing was now small, cramped printing. And I tended to lose my balance. The neurologist had me walk down the hall and said I didn't swing my right arm. I had never noticed! I was in denial for a while, as there is no history in my family of parents and five older siblings, but I had to accept I had classic symptoms. I was taking amantadine and carbidopa/levodopa and was about to start physical therapy to strengthen muscles. I used different supplements that didn't work, so last July, I tried the PD-5 protocol—the best decision ever! My tremors eased, my energy returned, and I sleep soundly. I feel like a new woman, and I can walk and exercise again. I got the PD-5 from limitlesshealthcenter. com

In 2019, I began experiencing symptoms of Parkinson's disease, which was diagnosed in 2021. Among my severe symptoms were tremors, difficulty walking, weakness throughout my body, and stiffness and rigidity. My meds only provided temporary relief, so I decided to try other approaches and started the PD-5 treatment program from uine health centre dot net. With the help of this therapy regimen, I have seen significant improvements in my walking, balance, tremors, and appetite, and I have resumed my guitar playing again and sign my name as I had before Parkinson's. I am incredibly grateful.
I was diagnosed 4 years ago at age 60. Symptoms were tremor in the right leg, loss of handwriting ability (my normally beautiful cursive writing was now small, cramped printing and a soft voice. I also had difficulty rising from a seated position and have balance issues. I started out taking only Azilect, then Mirapex, and then Sinemet. Several months ago, I started falling frequently, hence the reason for Sinemet. During the summer of 2021, I was introduced to Uine health Centre, and their effective PD-5 protocol. The treatment significantly alleviated my symptoms, outperforming the prescribed medications. My husband says it has done me a lot of good in terms of balance and ability to walk and get up from chairs. I can now write without my hands shaking; I can feel my strength again. I was fortunate to have the loving support of my husband and family. I make it a point to appreciate every day!
My husband first symptoms of Parkinson’s occurred during covid, but was diagnosed in 2021 when he was 61 years. He was on Levodopa- not crazy about it! he was also on Sifrol and rotigotine not crazy about any of it either, The Levodopa did very little to help him. The medical team did even less. His decline was rapid and devastating. He had a stooped posture, tremors, muscle stiffness and even slow movements. I was a master Gardener and love herbs! This Parkinson’s took my life from me, I was no longer able to work in my garden anymore because I was a full time caregiver for my husband. We stopped most of his Parkinson’s medications due to severe side effects and I started him on Ayurvedic treatments from Natural Herbs Centre naturalherbscentre. com , the treatment has made a very huge difference for him. His symptoms including body weakness, tremors and slurred speech disappeared after few months on the treatment. He is getting active again since starting this treatment, he is able to walk and able to ride his treadmill again.. This Ayurvedic treatment is a miracle!! I recommend researching natural treatment for Parkinson’s disease versus taking the pharmaceutical drugs that only deal with specific symptoms and have damaging side effects to your body.

Another YOPD here diagnosed in 2016 at age of 37. I am a dedicated CrossFit enthusiast (started in 2007 or so) and am sure that the regimen has slowed the progression along with diet, speedbag; yoga, meditation etc - throwing the kitchen sink of everything non-pharma at it (in addition to medication). Keep fighting!

I love seeing stories like Jeff's and feel confident Crossfit helps to improve people's lives regardless of their situation. I would love to see the benefits of Crossfit with folks with MS as I know several amazing people who can benefit from it.
I was diagnosed 2018 with Parkinson’s disease. My symptoms progressed quickly. Soon i was having difficulty sleeping, speech and even walking short distances. With the help of the PD-5 treatment I have been able to reverse my symptoms using diet, herbs, which i feel has made the most difference. The PD-5 treatment has immensely help overturn my symptoms, since I started the PD-5 treatment my slurred speech and especially the tremors gradually disappeared. it’s has done me a lot of good in terms of balance and ability to walk and get up from chairs. Google www. Uine health centre. net DON’T GIVE UP HOPE!!!

Forgot about SLIPS on heavy days.
Man, I was just talking to Dillon and Cecilia this morning about how we saw such a major correlation during lockdown a few years ago from time spent on L-sits and increased deadlift weights, despite never touching a bar. Even though they're not listed, no excuse not to do the SLIPS! We gotta get back on those

Champions Club Scaling Notes
RANT
I think this would be another good time for the reminder that these workouts are not intended to be viewed as singular things, but rather as part of a gameplan from weeks before and weeks leading up. For example, if you were planning your own workouts and wanted to hit a 5 rep max on deadlifts on January 13, what's the one thing you probably would not do the day before? Tabata squats? Oh yeah, right. And what would you probably not want to do three days ago? A hero workout with 2.5 miles of running and a crap ton of eccentric loading of the posterior chain with c&j? Yup, that too. Does that mean deadlifts are a bad idea today? Hell no! Look up Pat Sherwood's old video in the archives called "Bodypart Splits" (it wasn't a Journal video, just one of those ones they'd post on the main page). You need to be able to know how to keep a rigid midline when you are fresh, when you are going fast, when you are going slow, and when your legs are absolutely fried chicken from the last few days. Accept that a 5 rep pr probably isn't going to happen and get some good practice.
WORKOUT THEMES
High output followed by full recovery. Weightlifting. Squatting with an emphasis on pushing and midline. Pushing at midrange. Stamina.
SHORT MEDIUM LONG
LIGHT
MEDIUM
HEAVY x
COORDINATION SCALE
AMRAP in 12 minutes of:
10 deadlifts
10 push-ups
STRENGTH SCALE
As is but instead of 5 reps unbroken for each set, give yourself like a minute or 45 seconds to get all 5 reps in.
POWER SCALE
Time each set of 5, not allowing any to go fall under a time you feel is fast enough
MY STUFF
Did sets of 315 deadlifts and ring dips in between. My legs are done.
GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 5
Great rant Chris, couldn’t agree more!

Nice work on the DLs. Your rant is on point dude!

Hello Jeff. I am 73 and been doing crossfit nearly 13 years. Reading your story is quite encouraging and sets the bar right up where it should be; just within reach. I have been fortunate to enjoy pretty good health with youth sports, for years as a navy pilot and much of life as a runner. Now, having been tested with a couple very minor challenges, they provided me time to reflect on the “what ifs” should I face a challenge such as yours. I have thought many times that regardless of physical or mental obstacles in the future I would do everything possible to set aside any awkwardness in order to be in the gym. You are a perfect example of how to do so. I admire you. I encourage you to keep at it.
Thank you for validating my “what ifs”.
Dave
Thank you for sharing!!! Wow..encouraging & thought provoking for not only Parkinson’s; but thinking of my MS friends! Way to be that pioneer, Dr Jeff!!!!
My husband had PD-5 programme about 4 months ago. Tremors in his hands and jaw are gone. It doesn’t make the Parkinson’s go away but it did give him better quality of life. we got the treatment from ability health centre
