Commented on: Fasting and Cancer: Molecular Mechanisms and Clinical Applications

One area I'm looking forward to seeing additional research is work similar to that of Cantley et al (noted at the end of the article), where dietary interventions are used alongside more traditional therapies (chemo, radiotherapy, etc.) to increase their effectiveness and reduce harm to the patient. It's very possible that even if the impact of diet is not enough to stop or reverse cancer growth by itself, it can "kick out one leg of the stool" (to use a phrase I've heard elsewhere) and significantly enhance the susceptibility of tumor cells to these therapies. Of course, an enormous amount of research will be needed before we understand whether or not that is the case, but if it's done systematically and with the right level of support it should be a relatively simple hypothesis to test.

I the difference in effect found between FMD vs. Keto vs. Caloric Restriction diets with chemo interesting. As well, the possibility of a specific timing cycle to optimize the effects.

It is, especially because the relative effectiveness of different dietary interventions can help us understand the mechanisms by which cancer can be manipulated - and so how we can develop more effective combinatorial therapies in the future.


For example, let's say, as Longo et al argue, fasting has greater benefits than caloric restriction, and that is at least partly related to the greater impact fasting has on IGF-1 levels. That might help us develop diets specifically to maximize IGF-1 suppression, which could have even greater benefits.


The clinical end of this is still a relatively young field, but when we look at the world of opportunities for dietary interventions to directly affect cancer AND to increase the effectiveness of existing cancer therapies, there is much to look forward to.

No. We call them back burpees. start standing. sit down to your butt, then roll to back, then roll up to feet and stand up and jump and clap over head. So same as regular burpee but back touches ground instead of chest.

Have fun with this one! Here are some thoughts on scaling:


Burpees: I will have nearly every athlete perform this movement as prescribed. I consider the burpee to essentially be moving from a lying position to a standing position. Athletes can perform any variation, of that function, relative to their current ability level.


Reverse burpees: I consider the prescribed variation of this movement to be without the use of the hands. When modifying this movement, I will allow athletes to utilize the hands or rotate the body to assist in moving from the back to a standing position.


Double-unders: I will have nearly all athletes complete 2:00 of double-unders or double-under attempts. In rare circumstances, where the impact of attempting double-unders is too demanding, I will modify this movement to single-unders.


Row: All athletes will perform this movement as prescribed, unless some sort of injury prevents this function from occurring. In these circumstances, I’ll substitute another monostructural movement such as running, biking, or ski-erg.


Squat: All athletes will attempt this movement as prescribed. If full range of motion cannot be achieved unassisted, I will have athletes hold on to a pole to assist themselves throughout full range of motion or have athletes squat to a target.


Box Jumps: I consider the prescribed height to be moderately high. I will have athletes utilize heights that will allow for at least 10 reps to be completed in the 2 minute timeframe. For some athletes, a box jump of a couple inches can be a major achievement. Only in special situations will I utilize a step-up today.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT:

Whoa boy. If this was done in reverse order, I would say that the goal would be stamina) especially in the legs). But since burpees are first, I read that as the intention being to take us to “that place” early and see how that affects our technique on the next two, power output, then stamina.

Also, I don’t know what a Reverse burpee is, but I kinda like inverted burpees so we’ll be doing those


I SHOULD TRY THIS RX’D IF: I can get 35 burpees in 2 minutes


ORGANIC SCALES:

Strength — higher on box, back squat, and jump as high as possible in burpees. rest between stations

Stamina — go in reverse order

Endurance — as is except rest 2 minutes between stations

Flexibility — lower on squats, feet together on burpees


NEUROLOGICAL SCALES:

Coordination — go lower on box jumps and do touch-and-go (make sure to keep feet together and knees apart)

Accuracy — as is

Agility — see endurance scale except go lower on box so you can touch-and-go; rest should allow you to sprint exercises

Balance — two rounds for quality of everything 1-foot, except the row, which would be an all-out effort


GROUP VERSION:

Use a tire or another small elevated surface for burpees so we can get better landing position and more reps. Run for row. And either 2 rounds of this, or 3-4 minutes at each station if the athlete isn’t capable of going to that intensity.


WARMUP:

Double under — prep for workout

Hollow rock — candlestick practice

Kb swing — box jump practice

Kip — spend some time overhead

[insert thing you suck at]


GENERAL FEAR LEVEL (1=REST DAY, 10=PR-DRIVEN FGB): 7. If you really sprint it.

I forgot what a reverse burpee is. Any help? Start on the back then kick up to handstand?

Thx

yeah that's an 'inverted burpee' - unless HQ has changed terminology, a 'reverse burpee' is different.

start standing. get down on ground and make contact with your back. Get back up and jump and clap overhead. We call them back burpees at SinCity CrossFit. Rx is without using hands. Scaled variation uses hands or rolls to side to get up. Best to do on a gymnastic mat..
