I attended the L2 at Carbon this past weekend with lazy coaching habits and feeling burned out. In two days Pablo & Sarah not only gave me a fresh perspective on coaching cues and techniques, but rekindled an old passion for inspiring health and performance in my athletes. We were challenged in productive ways, but given smiles and grace. I now hold both of these staff members as models of my coaching going forward. Thanks for a great weekend!

Very cool story and lots of good lessons in here. Exercise isn't a substitute for healthy food. They both support health. And as valuable as exercise is, there is a reason CrossFit places nutrition at the base of the pyramid. Food is the molecular foundation of fitness. You are what you eat.

A huge shout out to Sarah and Pablo for leading an amazing L2 in Vernon Hills! I learned so much and feel more confident in coaching classes again. I am still absorbing all the knowledge I gained this past weekend.

Thanks to Pete for opening up your box. It was well organized and very clean.

Macro view template analysis


Workout Structure:

First day followed both “as heavy as possible” and “For Completion” template, respectively. Two modalities of weightlifting and gymnastics were used in this high volume WOD. The first combination was 3 heavy movements from weightlifting modality and the second combination was low intensity SLIP from gymnastic modality. The purpose of the exercise was to increase the presses records, so the athletes must lifted their heaviest resistance. The amount of resistance should be progressively increased to reach their record. Strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, balance and

coordination were challenged for GPP skills. The phosphagen system was a dominant energy pathway for first part, because the reps of per set were low. Moreover, the aerobic system was a dominant energy pathway for second part

 

Second day followed “AMRAP” template. In fact, this WOD included 1 min AMRAP of burpee and 1 min AMRAP of GHD sit-up for 4 rounds. This exercise was a single modality that included couplet elements from gymnastic modality; one of them was challenging the full body muscles and another was challenging the core muscles. The main focus in this WOD was to challenge the stamina and fatigue. The athletes had to perform high reps in each round. These high reps challenged the muscle fatigue, so improve the mental tolerance. Stamina, cardiorespiratory and mobility played the major role in this WOD. Moreover, the lactic acid system was the dominant energy pathway in each round of this WOD, because at the end of each round, the athletes had to rest for a minute, thus recovering the energy path.


Third day followed “For Time” template. This exercise was a couplet modality that included two heavy weightlifting movements and a high skill gymnastic movement. This WOD combined 3 drills of squatting, pulling and pushing. The main focus of this high intensity and heavy WOD was to challenge the stamina and strength of the full body muscles; lunge was for lower body, muscle-up was for upper body and finally, c&j was for full body muscles. Muscular endurance, strength and cardiorespiratory played the major role in this WOD. Moreover, the aerobic system was a dominant energy pathway in this program.


Conclusion

In this cycle:

  • The combinations of WG; G and WG have been used, respectively.
  • Gymnastics modality was used for all 3 days and also weightlifting was used for 2 of them.
  • No metabolic conditioning modality can be seen in this cycle.
  • No triplet modality can be seen in this cycle.


As can be seen, all 3 energy pathways (phosphagen, lactic acid and aerobic) were challenged in this cycle. Moreover, the Strength, muscular endurance, cardiorespiratory, flexibility, balance, coordination were involved in this circle of programming. Also, power is latent in the nature of these programs.

As a final note, “AHAP”, “For Completion”, “AMRAP” and “For Time” templates were used for programming in this cycle.

Enjoy your rest day and recover your physical and mental dimensions

Such an incredible weekend learning from Sarah and Pablo at the Level 2! This seminar was exactly what I needed to keep me working towards being a great coach. I’m ready to turn knowledge into action this week!


Huge thanks to Pete at CrossFit Carbon for providing a clean, safe space for us to learn.

Commented on: Draft Report of the 2020 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee Ignores Concerns, Continues Nutritionally Inadequate Advice Based on Weak Evidence

When government "scientists" can make such blatantly erroneous guidelines with straight faces, please tell me HOW we are to take them seriously on any front - Covid-19 included?

Bill,

That’s a good question. Even the New York Times admitted that the CDC utterly failed in its first real crisis in an article called “The C.D.C. Waited ‘Its Entire Existence for This Moment.’ What Went Wrong?”:


The C.D.C., long considered the world’s premier health agency, made early testing mistakes that contributed to a cascade of problems that persist today as the country tries to reopen. It failed to provide timely counts of infections and deaths, hindered by aging technology and a fractured public health reporting system. And it hesitated in absorbing the lessons of other countries, including the perils of silent carriers spreading the infection.


…nothing has been more critical than getting fast, accurate information on how the virus is spreading, who is getting sick, how best to treat them and how quickly the country can reopen.


But that has proved difficult for the agency’s antiquated data systems, many of which rely on information assembled by or shared with local health officials through phone calls, faxes and thousands of spreadsheets attached to emails. The data is not integrated, comprehensive or robust enough, with some exceptions, to depend on in real time.


It seems the CDC has devolved into a bureaucracy only capable of generating reports, but no decisive action. CrossFit and others have been saying loudly for years that the CDC failed at chronic disease, but it was still widely assumed that they had a handle on infectious disease. Covid-19 has exposed more weakness and ineptitude at the CDC, yet their budget grows.


The dietary guidelines are a similar disaster of both government incompetence and corruption. The mere existence of an official government dietary guideline creates a lucrative target for industry meddling. Today’s article shows how this has played out.


The new guidelines are slightly better in moving the cap on total daily calories of sugar from 10% to 6%. But it still places a 10% cap on saturated fat and recommends refined grains (because they are vitamin fortified) in addition to whole grains. In my opinion, they need to take a much stronger stance against processed foods, seed oils and grains.


The past dietary guidelines are a complete disaster and have contributed to the epidemic of chronic disease which has exacerbated the Covid-19 pandemic. If our population were metabolically healthy, Covid-19 would not have been nearly the scourge it has been. I’m not saying it would disappear to nothing, but we would have fared much better. Perhaps we’d look more like Japan, which has an estimated metabolic syndrome prevalence of 8% in 2009 vs 34% in the United States. Japan has only suffered 982 Covid-19 deaths.
