Toward the end of the article, Yancy provides the explanation for how and why sodium restriction may seem to have so much support that vanishes upon closer inspection:

“Challenges for researchers include how to gather high-quality evidence in the face of the ubiquity of sodium in westernized diets and the uncertainty that sodium is really “the villain” and not just a surrogate for a more significant nutritional concern, according to Yancy.”

That is, sodium is such a strong proxy for the rest of the “westernized” dietary pattern that observational evidence would make it more or less impossible to isolate the effect of sodium from these other factors. The average high-sodium diet will be less healthy than the average low-sodium diet, but that may have nothing to do with the sodium itself and everything to do with the other nutrients sodium typically comes packaged with.

This would be an unfortunate, but benign issue were it not for the problem raised in another, linked MedPage article:
https://www.medpagetoday.com/cardiology/chf/55442

Essentially, there is no meaningful evidence that sodium restriction - especially below 3g / d - is helpful for the majority of the population, and some evidence it is harmful. There is much more to discuss on this front, but the possibility that we could come to a directionally wrong conclusion regarding the impact of sodium consumption and restriction on heart health and mortality speaks to the fundamental weakness of nutritional guidelines relying on correlational evidence, or evidence derived from comparing dietary patterns that vary across a number of variables simultaneously.

This workout is a grippy one and is a great time to practice the skill of both movements while building stamina. Here are some thoughts on potential scaling is essentially the same stuff I wrote on 190203....it worked well:

Handstand hold- I will assume that freestanding handstand holds are the prescribed version of this workout, therefore, I know that most of my athletes will need a scaling modification. For experienced athletes, the first option I will give them is 6 attempts at accumulating the 1:00 duration. If they cannot accumulate more than 30 seconds of time I will likely modify them to an easier handstand variation on the wall. I will attempt to progress athletes to a more difficult handstand variation than they have currently been practicing. This might be doing heels taps on the wall instead of keeping the legs static. If athletes cannot get inverted on the wall the next step will be a pike position with feet or knees on a box. If an athlete cannot get inverted in any fashion a plate overhead hold will be good for today. 
Regardless of the variation being used, I will need to check in with athletes on an individual basis to shorten time durations as needed. 

Toes-to-bar- I consider the volume of reps of this movement to be high today. Most of my athletes will need to decrease the volume each round or modify the movement to maintain consistency. If I know my athlete’s capacity is less than 10-15 toes-to-bar unbroken I will likely reduce the reps to 10-15 each round.  For movement modifications, a hanging knee raise is a good option with the benefit being preserving the hanging portion of the movement while decreasing the range of motion. Being that there was a lot of hanging in yesterday’s  pull-ups, I will likely modify this movement to something along the lines of a lying toes to kettlebell on the floor which will preserve the range of motion although it alters the movement significantly. If athletes cannot preserve the range of motion on the floor I will scale further to a seated tuck.

I am amazed by all the freakishly fit people amassing 60" holds on all 5 rounds.

I completed 4 rounds of 60" accumulated hold against a wall on parallettes and 21 Toes to bar on 18:40.

Did most of them ttb straight legs version in each round. Last reps on last two rounds were straightish with a bit more arm pull. 

Handstand holds: 50/10 - 40/20 - 30/20/10 - 30/20/10

INTENDED STIMULUS


Shapes day! Play day! Before today's workout go and watch all of the CrossFit gymnastics videos about: arch, hollow, and stacked positions. These are the three main shapes of a full spectrum of spinal mobility: the two extremes and the perfect middle. Today is how you give your vertebral column some sweet, sweet love. We are spending one minute in the stacked position upside down. And we are going to pair that with another minute (approx.) of going from arch to a hollow with full compression and flexion of the hips. This is fun. The priority, however, is to find those shapes. You can do this workout sloppily: just throw yourself against the wall in any way possible, and then swing like a dead fish throwing your legs to the bar. That would be fine, but definitely not as productive. Aim for virtuosity. If you have awesome mechanics but the volume is a little high, as in you will not finish under 12 minutes, scale the time and/or the reps. If you are working on mechanics then find modifications that allow you to find those shapes in the ranges of motion you can control. Scaling this right will make it a lot more worthwhile and satisfying! Above all today, have fun!

Champions Club Scaling Notes

RANT: 
Check the notes last time

I SHOULD TRY THIS RX’D IF: I can do the handstands without the blood vessels bursting in my face. Also, I’m a fan of the straight(ish) legs standard on toes to bar, so I would put that in there.

ORGANIC SCALES:
Strength — strict toes to bar, not “for time,” rest as needed between
Stamina — try 2 rounds of 3:00 handstand hold and 45 toes to bar
Endurance — 10 rounds, :30 handstand hold, 12 toes to bar
Flexibility — legs straight on toes to bar, butt squeezed on handstand

NEUROLOGICAL SCALES:
Coordination — cut range of motion on toes to bar so you can kip in rhythm, and do handstand walks
Accuracy — 2:00 running timer and keep feet off the wall, cut the reps on toes to bar and actually get them to touch the bar
Agility — coordination version
Balance — coordination version

GROUP VERSION:  5 rounds: 2:00 handstand walk practice, 2:00 strict toes to bar practice. Easy to scale, easier on room, easier to keep your eye on people

WARMUP:
Jump rope — always
Squat — hip prep
Kip — overhead prep and toes to bar prep
Hip extension — mimics straight leg position for toes to bar
Box jump — keep fresh on those (they looked rusty in our gym today, so we’ll do more)

GENERAL FEAR LEVEL (1=REST DAY, 10=PR-DRIVEN FGB):  4. For Quality characteristics plus toes to bar volume would almost certainly force us to rest
