Rope to Success
Buddy Lee’s Jump Rope Method and its Global Impact
Buddy Lee—Olympian, Marine, and longtime jump-rope coach—shares how a neighbor’s mentorship turned a “playground toy” into his competitive edge and lifelong mission. He outlines a three-phase progression (Base → Conditioning → Sports Training) built on fundamentals: proper rope fit, upright posture, relaxed grip, and the “four Bs” (Balance, Breathe, Bend, Bounce). Mastery starts with the basic bounce and running step (aiming for 140 clean reps before progressing), then layers foot patterns and intensity safely. The aim isn’t tricks—it’s transferable movement quality, coordination, and durability.

Fructose restriction and metabolic syndrome
Cutting sugar alone—without reducing total carbs—can rapidly reverse metabolic dysfunction
In this landmark study led by Dr. Robert Lustig at UCSF, researchers replaced most of the added sugar in 43 obese children’s diets with starch for just nine days, keeping total calories the same. Even without weight loss, the children’s blood pressure, insulin, blood sugar, triglycerides, and cholesterol all improved dramatically. Because total carbs and calories stayed constant, the study showed that fructose itself—not just overeating or carbs in general—can drive metabolic dysfunction.

Shortcomings of Ancel Keys’s Lipid–Heart Hypothesis
How decades of dietary policy were built on flawed assumptions about fat and heart disease.
This historical review by Mary T. Newport and Fabian M. Dayrit argues that Ancel Keys’s influential lipid–heart hypothesis—linking saturated fat and cholesterol to heart disease—was based on faulty data and ignored key variables such as trans-fat and high linoleic acid intake. By conflating natural saturated fats with industrial fats and promoting seed oils without limits, the resulting dietary guidelines misdirected public health policy for decades. The authors conclude that these errors helped replace whole foods with processed substitutes and contributed to rising rates of obesity and metabolic disease.

Anatomy and Physiology for Jocks
An exceedingly simple lesson in anatomy and physiology key for effective coaching.
Greg Glassman distills anatomy and physiology into a framework so simple that any athlete can grasp it—and any coach can teach it. His model focuses on just four body parts (spine, pelvis, femur, tibia), three key joints (knee, hip, and sacroiliac), and two movements (flexion and extension). Once athletes can identify and control these, Coach introduces three rules of biomechanics: keep the trunk stable, generate power through hip extension, and avoid “muted hip function,” when the pelvis moves instead of the hip. The result is a shared language that sharpens communication and builds more coachable, efficient athletes.

NYC's New Added Sugars Warning Rule Goes Into Effect
New York City becomes the first in the U.S. to require sugar warnings on chain restaurant menus.
Starting last month, chain restaurants in New York City must display a warning icon next to any food or beverage containing 50 grams or more of added sugars. The policy applies to nearly 4,000 chain locations and aims to help consumers recognize high-sugar items and understand the health risks of excessive sugar intake. Noncompliant restaurants may face fines beginning January 2026.
