SLIPS are definitely having an impact on leg strength, balance and breathing.

265-285-300(pr)-295-285
SLIPS general warmup EMOM: 4 rounds/20m
:15 each side front/back scale
:15 L sit
:60 stiff/stiff press/lower practice
:30 rear plank
:30 deep squat hold
Did Bryan’s specific warmup but only 2 rounds, and 7-5-4 build up @135-185-235
Compare to was: 245-255-265-275-285 and the last 2 were with wraps. No knee wraps needed this time and 265 felt easy.

Commented on: It’s the Insulin Resistance, Stupid: Part 10
Thank you for this series, Prof. Noakes. It really closes the circle for me. Coincidently, there is one thing in common for the two of us; the nutritional change started with the book “new Atkins, new you”. I started (unlike you) with zero background, but the book changed everything (including new lite version of me permanently -10kg). After Taubes and Teicholz and many hundreds of other things, this series connects the remaining dots for me.
This phrase is endorsed to several people, but let’s give it to war time German propaganda minister Göring: “if you repeat a lie often enough, the people start believing in it; finally, you believe in it yourself”. Let’s re-dedicate this to Mr. Keys.
The harm his “lies” is still causing to us, is tremendous.
The one mighty commercial force mentioned by Teicholz, P&G and Crisco support to the AHA, bear its fruit the same year Keys started with AHA 1961. Pandoras box for “healthy” poly-un-stable fats was opened, and the devil is still at large. With official recommendation everywhere ever since. Best ever snake-oil marketing…by PUFAgiant P&G.
The unsung hero -close to it -is Reaven; luckily, others have built upon his work, when he kind of gave up halfways. My personal health focus shall be on triglycerides and HDL (and hypertension and belt length) before something trustworthy appears, thanks to this series. If I ever take OGTT again, it must include insulin response, why else bother to drink 75g of glucose?
Seeing the insulin response, a ’la dr. Kraft, reveals the hidden insulin resistance / over-excretion status, long before blood glucose fails.
Thank you once more,
JR

Was trying to go nice and deep on the squats, so kept it on the lighter side. Did the TGU workout yesterday... Boy, did those SLIPS burn!

Globo scale: as rxed. Use spotters, spotting arms, or bumpers for bailing for safety. If you only have a Smith machine load that up and use it, then do some single leg work afterwards. It's not the best but it will have to do here. If you only have dumbbells today do either sets of Bulgarian split squats, lunges, or pistols, increasing weight each set. Pick the most difficult move of the 3 and do that. If you max, do AMRAP sets. SLIPS as rx.

Bryan Rosen’s warm up.
Then 10 min EMOM 10-20 sec L-sits on parallettes and 10 min EMOM 30-sec front and back scales alternating legs.
Back Squats: 5@ 125 lb., 130, 135, 135, 140. Added 4@ 145 and 2@ 150.
Lately I've been doing less of a general warmup on max effort days and just beating people to death with technique for about 20 minutes before getting into working sets. The SLIPS also provide a good thing to do between sets
PURPOSE: since there's only 5 sets, then it's probably finding our true 5 rep max. Or just to develop a little more stamina than a 1-rep max would bring.
NEW TO CROSSFIT VERSION: do like 10 or 20 reps each set instead of 5.
TRAINING SCALE: as is, but you can also add a stamina factor (or, more of a stamina factor) if you play around and limit the rest between sets.
PRACTICE SCALE: pay extra attention to the SLIPS and how they relate to the back squat.
Scale - arches in the feet
L-sit - pulling from a hips perspective and strength in the transition position (bottom of squat)
Inversion - descent of the squat
Plank - manually creating tension in the shoulders while midline is already under tension
GROUP VERSION: as is, SLIPS in between
INJURY VERSION: Pick one of the SLIP you can do and practice for a half hour. Then stretch.
WARMUP: SLIPS and light sets
GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 4
