This series has been most informative. Having listened to, and read, much of Dr. Fung's work, this seems to reinforce the points he raises. While it's clear there is still a lively debate among those leading the field, it is fascinating to see the potentially elegant and accessible solutions those with T2D potentially have.

Here are some thoughts on this one:
Back Squat: Today is a great day to attempt a new 3 rep max (if the athlete is up for it) and to get some volume under heavy loads.  For the work sets, a good guideline is to have all sets be above ~80% of a 1-rep max. For today, starting at 80% of a 1-rep max and building up to a 3-rep max can be a general guideline. This means that I will need to ensure adequate build-up time, prior to attempting any actual work sets. I will have athletes build-up for at least the first 2 sets. If a max is achieved prior to the final set, I will have athletes reduce loads by 10-15% for the remaining sets. I will not alter the rep scheme for most of my athletes. For those that are new and are still working on technique, I may do sets of 5 reps to allow for a little more practice time. 

During the workout, weight reductions may be needed for athletes that begin to display significant deviations from sound mechanics or start to shorten range of motion.

Rowing: This is meant to be a short and hard effort with faster times being under 2:30. I will only scale the distance on a very rare instance, even if the 750m will not necessarily be a sprint-effort.

This is obviously a great article and its conclusion, that we should lower our carbohydrate intake is obviously correct. Indeed, let me reinforce with a reference the graph that shows that we obeyed government orders after 1977 and started not only to eat more carbohydrate but also less fat (S-S Zhou et al, 2010, BMC Public Health 10. Doi:10.1186/1471-2458-10-746). Nonetheless, obesity rose as did type 2 diabetes.
Sean Hastings notes that the overweight numbers did not apparently rise, which I see as equal numbers leaving that pool, to join the obese category, as were joining that pool from the normal weight category. Which brings me to my point, not of disagreement but of enlargement, with Malcolm. I think there may be a cause-and-effect between weight and type 2, and Roy Taylor has suggested we each have a threshold of weight, beyond which we tip into type 2. But for each of us, that threshold lies in a different place. If he's right, that would be compatible with the epidemiological data. 
Roy Taylor identifies the deposition of TG/fat around the islets of langerhans and within the liver as the cause of the reduction in insulin release and sensitivity in type 2, and he's certainly shown that losing weight can reverse the disease.
I see no conflict between the Malcolm Kendrick/Roy Taylor approaches, because I think both weight and CHO raises TG deposition in the relevant organs, and I'd be interested in Malcolm's take on this?

Certainly agree with Katina on mindfulness (yet something else to work on!).  Very interesting article as were the preceding articles.  Curious as to the relative straight line for “overweight” over time but maybe that reflects the percentage of the population that does not have a genetic predisposition to obesity, or can process sugars more efficiently?

Champions Club Scaling Notes:

RANT
Today's rant is actually in the Mechanics-Consistency-Intensity article.

PURPOSE
Strength and conditioning.

NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE
Same format, just add reps to the back squat if you are not ready to go heavy. Or mix in back squats and rowing/running into one workout. Like 5 rounds of: 12 back squats, row 200 meters

TRAINING SCALE
As is

PRACTICE SCALE
Shoes off on back squat to emphasize maintaining arches.

INJURY SCALE
Pick one or the other. Whichever one you don't do, practice one SLIP for 15 minutes.

GROUP SCALE
As is, or maybe change the row/run to something that would be considered a benchmark for your gym (mile run/500m row, etc.)

WARMUP
Knees to elbows
Squat
Candlestick
Jump rope
Pull-up

GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 5.

I literally agree with every single sentence of the post except the one below:

"For example, an intermediate-level athlete who struggles with maintaining consistently sound movement patterns in the snatch can be charged to work the movement under lower loads for fewer reps and at lower intensity — even during workouts — until their mechanics are consistent enough to merit greater levels of intensity."

In the past I used to do this exact same thing, where I'd either decrease the weight and either keep the reps the same or decrease the reps. But since probably June or so, I've been doing the opposite; I've been adding more reps when I lower a weight for someone. For example, on today's bask squat workout, if someone just has the capacity to go at, say, 65 lbs. before their arches collapse and knees wobble, then we'll maybe go to 45 pounds, but do sets of 10 or some random number like 23. Out of those 23 reps, probably 15 will be really good and the others will range from decent to JESUS SAMMY WHAT WAS THAT?!? But that kind of goes to the point made in the third paragraph (I think) about allowing an athlete to struggle as part of the learning curve. Before I would rather have an athlete go 3 for 3 on lifts at 65 pounds than see some bad lifts with more reps. But if you take that principle to basketball or baseball or volleyball - or running(!) - it would not hold true. You would not stop someone every time they heel-striked on a run. You'd try to fix them as they go and make sure they're not doing a distance that would get them hurt.

I also realize the lower loads for fewer reps was one example. You know how it goes, though; sometimes you just feel the need to find one small thing try and add your special snowflakes to the conversation haha. I'm looking forward to part 2. Good stuff.

Globo Scale:  If you have plates, a barbell, and a rack go to town.  If you are not using bumper plates, use a spotter or spotting arms on the heaviest sets.  If you are without a barbell, you have a few options.  1. If your gym has a Smith machine, load that up.  It is far from ideal, but we have to make do here.  Finish with some single leg work for the instability/core bracing lacking in using this device.  2. Build up to a heavy 3 on each side of weighted pistols, Bulgarian split squat or deep stepup.  If you are without a barbell, do max sets of one of the 3 times 5 each side.   For the row, sub either a 600m run, 25 burpees AND 25 sdhp, 45/35#  barbell (53/35lb kb),  or 45 calorie assault bike if without a rower.  

GENERAL WARM-UP

2 rounds of:
250-m row
10 glute bridges
25-ft of Spiderman lunges
25-ft of 3 air squats + 1 broad jump
10 bird-dogs

2 rounds of:
Foam roll adductors 30-seconds per side
5 squat therapy reps

SPECIFIC WARM-UP

Back squat
5 tempo back squats (3s down, 1s up)
5 jumping back squats
5 back squats

Build-up

Build up to the first working set by performing 10-5-5-3 reps. Increase load each set.

Rowing

Reverse “Pick drill”
2-3 rounds of:
30-seconds of legs-only
30-seconds of legs + body
30-seconds of full stroke

This is a very important concept because it underscores the necessity of controlling insulin secretion. However, Dr. Kendrick is correct in pointing out that this is best accomplished by dietary change (specifically low processed carbohydrates) and stress reduction. This is where mindfulness can do double duty.

INTENDED STIMULUS

Let's finish the week strong! We are crosfitters, we love heavy squats. Today is a day for a proper, longer warm-up. Make sure you are sweaty, and your heart rate is high before getting to the barbell. Make sure your hips are open, your ankles are moving well, and your shoulders are loose. Today, no matter if you are a proficient squatter or if you are a beginner, your task is the same: to keep adding weight while mechanics are 👌. Today every set is heavy! Now, if your butt shoots up to the sky, your upper back rounds, or your knees and ankles are collapsing hard, that's your body telling you: "you've made it, no need to keep going up." That is it. If early on, you find a load that is challenging your form, deload to the previous weight. Then perform the rest of your sets at that intensity. Today is an excellent day to find your best movement and express it at a heavyweight. Find loads that allow you to do exactly that.

Once you are done with your squats, practice falling off the rower to the side. Yes, if you can get off the rower with finesse after your 750m, you did not go hard enough. Nobody cares about your time; just row hard AF. Get off the concept2 with just one thought in your head: I rowed as hard as I could.

Heavy squats and sprint, this is a good Sunday!


▶ OPTION 1 
For athletes with good movement patterns but not familiar with going super heavy.

Back squat 5-5-5-5-5 reps
Keep adding weight while your movement is solid. If at any point you feel a big deviation in mechanics, end your set, deload and move on the next one. 

Then,
Row 750 m for time

▶ OPTION 2
For athletes developing their movement pattern. 

A. Tabata of air squats to a target.
Focus is on quality of movement, not number of reps.

B. 5 supersets
30 seconds bottom of the squat hold
30 seconds arch/superman hold
rest 1:00 between super sets

C. 5 supersets 
3 bottom-to-bottom squats 
3 super-slow squats
rest 1:00 between supersets

Then,
Row 750 m for time
