I love CrossFit, but this is an area where they've got it wrong. 

There are lots of things our brains allow us to do that are not healthy for use, synthesizing cocaine and using it are just two examples. Simply because our brains allow us exploit technology to kill large game and process the meat does not mean that eating meat is good for humans.

There are good studies and bad ones. He's quoting a study from 1966 about cholesterol. It wasn't until 1970 until cigarette packaging was mandated to warning about smoking during pregnancy. Their have been thousands of studies since 1966 that show that elevated cholesterol levels are one of the major factors that predispose people to atherosclerosis.

M-35y-Around 10% BF - Passed my CrossFit L1 on feb 2011, Sao Paulo...

And still Scaled this workout to 12 L pullups.

Why not 15 L pullups? Since failing a rep is so easy with L pullups I decided to go with a rep scheme that allowed me to challenge myself today without modifying the complexity while without needing to rest to much. Partitioned the  12 L pullup in 4 sets of 3 the first 3 rounds and 6 sets of 3 the last 2 rounds.

Since Buenos Aires is under a forced lockdown and running is not allowed (dont get me started), I measured 90 se. of single under in warm up and scaled down the 400m run to 200 single under. This was a surprise. I knee L pullups would suck and swuats would hurt. I didnt fully realize the single unders would hurt as much until well into this.

Very happy to have done this with my mom. I scaled this for her. 150 jumps to arms support on table, 15 squats and 9 ring rows extra hard (more horizontal than we use to do them) she kicked my ass did the 5 rounds in 18:45 

I did my 5 rounds of 200 singles 50 squats and 12 L pullups in 23:40.

Awesome workout!

Maybe it was switching to nights and getting only 5 hours of sleep or maybe it was that this was my 12th workout of the week... whatever the case it went from 6 min rounds in 1-2 to hitting a 🧱. Just decided to finish at that point. Looking forward to my rest day!

First, I'm a proponent of the Paleo / Zone diet and meat.  Let's put this into perspective please.  Has anyone looked around at our population?  Fuck the Covid 19 pandemic, we have a much more serious issue with an obsbesity epidemic.  Are we really concerned that people are gonna watch the Game Changers and say, "well hell, I'm gonna become a vegan!"?  That is the last thing i'm concerned about.   But if a documentary comes out that inspires more people to eat more plant based foods, and workout hard, then that's a massive win?  What else do you want? Otherwise most people have a hard time just cutting out soda, chips, candy, etc.  There are much bigger battles to fight, than a single sided argument based on consuming a plant based diet for crying out loud.  Plant-based diet or the standard American Diet (SAD)?  I am so tired of listening to blow hard nerds making an argument against this documentary.  Get a fucking life and move on for Christ sake.  As I write this post, I see at least a dozen people within 30 feet of me that are morbidly obese.  They could definitely stand to add more plant-based, real food to their diets.  One step at a time people! And trust me, I'm willing to bet my paycheck for the next six months that they aren't going to become vegans.    Enough already!

Bit of a grinder.  Running is starting to feel better.  My stride is not so short and choppy.  A couple brief rests during squats.  Broke L pull-ups in 3 sets for most rounds, more in the last round.  Before WOD, did some deadlifts and worked up to 355.

"Eat: meat & vegetables, nuts & seeds, some fruit, little starch, and no sugar" coupled with CrossFit Health's subtitle "Let's Start With The Truth" says it all. Similar to what we see in debates with religious dogma, one side has the scientific method and objective measures and the other has nothing but feelings, beliefs, and attempts to disguise those things as fact (ala Game Changers).

Thankyou !!! I used to read the Journal a lot and for years it has been keeping me educated in a wide variety of subjects related to CrossFit. although I do miss it, your effort in providing content daily is much appreciated. I am proud that the CrossFIT organization is well educated and forward thinking and this type of content supports that view. Please keep it up.

If Crossfit is for everyone, it's a community, why can't we all be whatever we want to be and get along?
We live in the stupid era of 'acceptance' and being vegan is not accepted? I'm plant-based and wouldn't change it for anything, but I'm not one to preach about it or attack meat eaters and, like others, we're always being 'attacked' for our choice... Now I even have meat eaters attacking me for not doing direct plant-based activism... Like, wtf??
People always need someone to stuff information through their mouths without doing their own research, so that they feel better with being in negation mode....

Maybe main guys post their workout comments on here? I think the main post spot isn't working.

CF, when can we expect your experts from the other side to do their rebuttal? More and more crossfitters are going plant based and have benefited in more than one way. Why are you trying to persuade people towards the meat diet?  Please consider supporting a plant based diet as well. Thank you  

Dr. Diamond completely dismantles the comparative anatomy argument often employed by vegans. Humans might not have teeth like a typical carnivore. Thankfully, we don’t need them. We’ve been using tools and fires for millions of years. We have more dietary flexibility than any other species thanks to this.
Humans are essentially the result of an evolutionary experiment that tested whether a large brain could compensate for smaller muscles, claws and teeth. We have no built-in weapons, unlike other predators. Nonetheless, it’s those predators who are living in zoos and not the other way around. The human brain is the most effective evolutionary adaptation ever devised for hunting.
I've seen other debate against this comparative anatomy argument before, but I think Diamond's solution is the best I've heard yet.
The second part of this talk covers cholesterol in an interesting way. Game Changers argued that vegan diets are the most effective method to lower cholesterol. Diamond argues that cholesterol is actually good for us, as it reduces our risk of death from infections and cancer, with minimal impact on heart disease. So why lower it?
His graph of the mortality rates of people with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is especially persuasive. People with FH have sky high cholesterol. They are more likely to die young, which is bad. But they have a lower risk of dying when they’re old, thanks to a stronger immune system. This sounds like a bad trade-off, except that very few people die when they’re young. So, it’s an increase of a relatively minor risk. Overall, people with FH have a longer lifespan.
Great information presented here and in a very entertaining way.

Seriously CF!? DID that really just happen?
