I think understanding the reasons behind the average weight loss of diet & exercise vs. pharmaceutical intervention vs. bariatric surgery is vital. Sure, the average weight loss for D&E might be 5%, but what cases does that include? People who’ve tried to lose weight and given up after 2 weeks? Of course D&E is the harder choice, so many people are going to choose the “easier” route of pharmaceuticals or surgery, and will be compliant with those protocols more than they would with D&E.

Unfortunately the bulk of people I know who are using this are using it for vanity reasons and this is a big concern. I also think at the end of the day, the problem with these pharmaceuticals, is just cause people are losing weight doesn’t necessarily mean they are getting “healthier” or more interested in sustainable health over their life/eating whole foods/exercising/having an active/healthy lifestyle. they can still eat the processed junk foods in “small quantities” and not engage in fitness but lose weight with the drug. What Pat said about not being able to workout intensely, also brings other worries into light. This “solution” doesn’t mean they are getting what their body needs for nutrients and health. I think the system needs more assistance for true health(not talking specifically about weight) that isn’t solely dependent on a pharmaceutical 🤷🏻♀️just my 2 cents and probably a controversial opinion

I cannot believe someone in the CF space is even discussing another pharmaceutical poison. The 'cure' for obesity is the base of the CF pyramid. To put into simplest terms, stop eating processed sugar. Show a modicum of self discipline.

I'd like to know more about the functions GLP1 has with grhelin and leptin? Also, does the increase in insulin production help with reliance on insulin shots? Does it make sense to keep insulin levels low for a diabetic instead? It seems very "it depends" on if someone should take it for who is supposed to, let alone people wanting it for vanity reason.

Hi Gents, I’d love to hear your thoughts on how to incorporate learning gymnastics skills into a program. I’d like to learn how to do a forwards and backwards roll on the rings, and a press to handstand on paralletes. Between the specific warm ups, and the focus practicing these skills, it seems that they require a dedicated session to train well. Trying to practice new skills as part of a warm up before a metcon is time consuming, and doing it after a workout is too tiring. Weightlifting has the heavy day, so it seems fair that gymnastics gets a day of dedicated time as well. Thanks, and love the show!

Great episode. The main takeaway is to eat whole foods but also be intentional as to WHY you are taking/consuming things. Oh and also get regular check ups so at least you know what your levels are.

of course kipping is cheating, its worse, its detrimental. pike pushups, withhandles, add box gradually until you maybe able to clean handstand full bw with handles. its not complicated its just to ohp what pushups are to bench. look at the morons arching their backs extensively in benching, thats cheating and detrimental, objectively and obviously.

Personally i like having dedicated heavy days but i don't like too much variety because i want to see progression more often. So i do a couple of lifts for few weeks then, when i start to stall or i m bored, I change to other two movements. The beauty of CrossFit is that, within its broad remit, it can be done in many different ways. P.S. I train by myself in my garage, so I m flexible

Finnish dude here, so I have quite a lot of exposure to saunas. Have not heard of those details Boz mentioned someone bring up. 30+ years of experience tells me this is all there is to it: Step one: warm up sauna, preferably with wood but electricity is fine too Step two: strip yourself butt naked. You bathe naked regardless of who you are with. If you can't be naked around someone then you probably shouldn't go to the sauna with that person in the first place Step three: enter sauna. Step four: leave the sauna. Repeat steps three and four as many times as you like in one session. If there is a lake/other water nearby plunge in it or roll in snow. Feel free to have a beer every once in a while. Works in all shapes of saunas, a barrel one too.

"Lean chicken breast and death by thrusters" is my new favourite Pat quote. 😂 This episode made me think about our motivation to eat well and exercise. It's hard and it's voluntary pain, in some ways. The "good" kind of pain your quads feel when you're pushing for the 30th rep of a front squat. But I think there is a difference between people in that some people feel this as just pure pain and it's useless suffering, while others feel it as a pain that will make them better and it gives their brain some kind of reward. Not just in the longterm, but an immediate, short term reward. For people who like engaging in exercise, it still hurts but the pain becomes a joy and a necessity. What do you two think? Why do you think this is? I feel like for those of us who like it, it's hard to fathom how difficult it actually is for someone who doesn't. Not an excuse, but perhaps they just have a much bigger mental block to overcome. I would be interested to hear a discussion on this. Thanks 😊

The hard truth for exercise professionals is that exercise is not an effective (I use the term EFFECTIVE on purpose) intervention to induce sustained weight loss. The same is true for low-carb diets (or any other kind of restrictive diet). Telling people otherwise is a lie. That does not mean that they are useless interventions; quite the contrary. Exercise has a billion benefits other than weight loss, and low-carb diets can be useful to manage type 2 diabetes. But improving physical fitness (at any age or weight) should be the focus of exercise professionals, not weight loss. Now that effective drugs are available, obesity treatment sits squarely with medical doctors in collaboration with nutritionists (for the diet education) and exercise professionals (to prevent muscle loss). Fighting medical progress and thinking that telling people that they are fat is a solution will not help many obese people. P:S: Obesity management guidelines include diet and exercise as first option: people who go on these new drugs are people who have tried diet and exercise (often many times) before. Using these drugs is not "the easy option". They simply help sustaining a low calorie diet by reducing appetite and "food noise" in people's brain. They still have to eat properly to lose weight
@MrMaunukka 21 күн бұрын
Weight loss is, or should be, a byproduct of a successful increase of physical fitness. If you say exercise and diet are not effective for sustainable weight loss, what are you comparing it to? What is a better way to lower body fat/ weight than addressing the two components of the equation, calories in and calories out? I would say taking some pills that mess with your brain to make you crave less food is definetly the less sustainable option the two. I wonder how people managed to stay lean without this great leap of medical progress before we got into this health crisis.

@@MrMaunukkathe poor effectiveness of diet and exercise in producing sustained weight loss in obese people is not my opinion, it's a fact demonstrated by an overwhelming number of studies. It's important not to confuse efficacy and effectiveness here. Diet and, to a much lesser extent, exercise have efficacy but because most people cannot sustain them over time, they are not very effective. More here: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5764193/

@@MrMaunukkaat an individual level, obesity is basically a brain condition, that's why drugs that target the brain are effective.

@samuele.marcora Yes, apologies. I see my choice of words was quite not on point. I did not mean to claim that physiologically weight loss occurs only somehow by increasing fitness capabilities. What I meant to say was that typically one could assume that if one increases their physical fitness that it usually goes hand-in-hand with reducing body fat. Yes, I know that is not the case always. One can gain physical fitness and increase body weight or even fat. Body weight is a challenging metric here since muscle weighs more than fat. One can also loose weight without becoming any fitter. But if we are talking about the majority on overweight people, if they start to exercise regularly with sufficient intensity and a thought out program it is fair to assume that that would lead to loss of excessive body fat, wouldn't you agree? Body fat percentage also correlates to various health and performance markers. Therefore, I find the notion a bit odd that trainers should only focus on increasing physical fitness and overlook the diet aspect completely and leave it to MD's and nutritionists. Also bear in mind the anecdote about the doctor suggesting "less pressure to the knees" and similar ones out there. Also, still curious about the better alternative to sustainable weight loss compared to exercise and diet. Apologies if I missed it from the first post.

I definitely agree that coaches should not intentionally teach/coach/cue any "bad technique" (like piking a double under or chicken-winging a bar muscle up) as a shortcut just so that the athlete feels a short-term success. However, coaches should be open to seeing such "bad" technique and realizing that it may take time and effort on the part of the athlete to correct. After ten long months of trying over and over to link a second bar muscle up, I developed, through no intentional coaching, a bit of a "glide kip" - it's just what happened when my body was flying through space. Rather than demand that I cease sets of 2+ reps of BMU, my coach has shown extreme patience in offering me drills, cues and ample practice to get my toes below the darn bar, while still allowing me to work on the coordination, strength and timing of the skill.

Mike Jenkins. He competed in strongman as a professional. Won the Arnold Strongman Classic in 2012. Had his own CrossFit affiliate in Hershey Pennsylvania called CrossFit Gamma. He incorporated CrossFit programming into his strongman preparation as a professional strongman. Sadly, Mike passed away on Thanksgiving day 2013. But from 2011 to 2013 he was one of the top five best strongmen in the world!!! Rogue even had a T-shirt for him back in the day!

My schedule leads me to do CrossFit class before weightlifting class (back to back in PM). My friends tell me I am crazy to do it in that order. I also notice that if the CrossFit class has a strength piece, it is done first. Should I try to change my schedule to do weightlifting first, or to maybe do CrossFit in the Am and weightlifting in the PM? I am trying for time efficiency, so don't really want to have two commutes to the gym if I don't need to. Your thoughts on this would be very welcome. P.S. I love the show and have listened to every episode. :)

Dear Pat and Boz, what you danced around today but didn’t name is the stages of learning: unconscious incompetent, conscious incompetent, conscious competent and unconscious competent with conscious correction .What coaches, any coaches, are trying to do is get their athletes to the final stage. I would suggest that the great coach helps the athlete gather cues (tactile, auditory or otherwise) so that they can go through the stages of a movement and know instantly when and what they need to correct. The athlete can practice under increasing loads as long as they can maintain their form. Pushing the envelope allows them to get comfortable with a heavier weight maintaining intensity for as long as they can and realizing they didn’t die. Take Grace or Isabel for example. The athlete may have done either at 95# but in some 5x5 work with plenty of rest they have worked up to 135 so they can hold their hand to the candle at say 115-125 still under what they did with plenty of rest between efforts, but dance adjacent to the devil to get comfortable being uncomfortable while maintaining unconscious competency. Great discussion For those who want to learn more try and find a copy of either The Inner Game of Tennis or Inner Speed Secrets. Both deal with the mental side of sports.

Another one you could do is something like running Cindy which I've done before in a class 20amrap. Partner A does cindy (rounds of 5 pull ups, 10 push ups 15 squats, while partner B runs 400m, when partner B returns from the run they swap till 20min is up, partner B start with partner A finished off on Cindy see how many rounds total they can do together, or they can continue on where they finished off at for each individual

I agree with Boz. I hated being cheered on to finish. Being way older than everyone else at my box (in my 60's) I was always last in a 'for time' workout. I was good at knowing my limits, at running my own race so I totally feel for this guy. I also hated to be in the spotlight. So much so that the others in the box eventually learned with the help of one of the owners to ignore me & just let me get on with it.

38 y old, husband and dad of four, crossfitter since 9 years now. I used to love the rebound jumps and was generally quite good at box jump workouts compared to my fellow training buddies, despite of my legs being quite short. I switched to step down box jumps because my left achilles heel started feeling funny at high rep box jump workouts. I agree with boz's opinion that the step down variant is harder to do. For me it requires a higher coordinational effort and i feel my jumps are less powerful. In general, i absolutely agree to the argument that healthy achilles tendons an knees are much more important than a slighly faster workout time. At least for me as a garage crossfitter.
