I managed the first round unbroken but the second was broken a lot. So, I continued with regular Cindy unbroken for 7R+12r. I felt I'd get more out of that.

Made it through the 50 pushups in round 4 with not a second to spare. Pull-ups unbroken. Pushups broken after round 2 got super ugly with pushups to down dog.

Slow squats to catch my breath and prep for pull-ups!

I haven’t done CrossFit since 2011! I completed 420 reps in 20 minutes. Made it to 45 squats before my reps broke. At 75 squats my legs started to shake and it reminded me of the wonderful anguish and determination to finish.

Finished all sets in 20 minutes.

Got a little confused at the last 2 sets and did some extra push ups and squats, need to work on building focus under physical endurance.

Commented on: Insulin and the Lung: Connecting Asthma and Metabolic Syndrome

Résumé/traduction rapide


Insuline et les poumons : Connecter l’asthme et le syndrome métabolique



Question abordée : Les diabètes et l’obésité augmentent le risque d’asthme. Indépendamment des effets de ces maladies sur l’inflammation, quels mécanismes peut diminuer cette augmentation de risque ?



Conclusion rapide : L’insuline peut provoquer des changements au niveau des cellules musculaires et épithéliales dans les poumons ainsi que des changements dans la matrice extra cellulaire. Ces cellules peuvent toutes contribuer à l’asthme et à d’autres conditions.


___


Des preuves épidémiologiques indiquent que l’obésité, le syndrome métabolique et la résistance à l’insuline augmentent le risque d’asthme et en particulier suggère que la relation est dirigé par le dysfonctionnement métabolique (hyperglycémie, hyperinsulinémie et/ou résistance à l’insuline) et pas par l’obésité.


De nombreuses études montrent que les marqueurs de détresse métabolique sont associés avec le risque d’asthme indépendamment du poids du corps.



Les cellules du poumon sont sensibles à l’insuline. Des preuves montrent que l’exposition à l’insuline peut diminuer la fonction du poumon.



L’insuline peut aussi mener à une réduction des voix respiratoires à travers ces effets sur des tissues pulmonaires.


Il est encore prématuré de lier l’hyperinsulinémie et l’asthme.


Mais ces mécanismes peuvent potentiellement expliquer le lien direct entre une mauvaise santé métabolique et l’augmentation du risque de l’asthme.


Elles indiquent également des thérapies potentielles pour tester/traiter l’asthme

WOD ANALYSIS


Coaching notes:

This is the amazing WOD that uses a complementary movement template; pull-ups for posterior and push-ups for anterior upper body, and squats for lower body. Furthermore, this WOD is combined of 3 skills of pulling, pushing and squat Motion patterns


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


Modality: This exercise is a triplet element in the form of gymnastics modality.


Purpose: The training purpose is to improving the stamina and increase the fatigue capacity. In this WOD, athletes learn to how control the fatigue and continue the reps for break the records despite being tired.


The reason for choosing reps: The reps are increases in each round.  These high reps challenge the muscle fatigue, so improve the mental tolerance of the athletes. Furthermore the pull-up, push-up and squat are selected for this WOD that challenge the anterior upper body, posterior upper body and lower body, respectively.


Physiology (GPP): Stamina and cardiorespiratory play a major role in this WOD. Furthermore, Strength, flexibility, and coordination are challenged.

Champions Club Scaling Notes


RANT

For about two years the standard at the gym has been reverse grip on all pull-ups. This is a technique called "blocking movement" I learned from Carl Paoli that basically means setting a standard that forces us to do something the right way. So by flipping the hands backwards it winds up our shoulder into external rotation - which is stable when we are overhead. This is a great way to practice regular and butterfly kips because we can do lots of reps, mess up a bunch, and still have our shoulders in a safe position. Also, anyone remember back in like 2006-2007 when Cindy came up like twice a month?


MAIN DECISION

Do you really have the stamina (Kanye) to use this increasing rep scheme


NEW TO CROSSFIT SCALE

Cindy


WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS

Pull-up - pulling, overhead, skill

Push-up - pushing, mid-range, not necessarily the strictest reps

Squat - squatting, bodyweight, speed


WHAT ABOUT THE FORMAT

This is a way to challenge veterans who have done regular Cindy a million times and don't want to go to "that place" to get a 3-rep pr. It's basically a guess for what's the most amount of ascending reps we can do each round without breaking anything up. Evil, really.


LEARN TO COOK

If I want to keep the stamina factor but not have intensity drop, instead of increasing reps just start with the best number you think you can do unbroken and keep it going for the entire 20 minutes. Or I could follow the rep scheme, split up the pull-ups and push-ups however strategized, and keep squats unbroken. I kinda like that second option.


I DON'T WANT TO COOK, JUST GIVE ME FOOD

Cindy
