  1. Interval walking training (IWT): several small studies have indicated benefits of #IWT for various health parameters. Now social media let it take off. Main equipment: some time & the ability to walk. #fitness

  3. Interval Walking Training
    or “Japanese walking,”
    is getting renewed attention after going viral on TikTok.

    Nearly 20 years ago a team led by Hiroshi Nose and other researchers from Japan published a study that found that
    middle-aged and older people who did high-intensity interval walking had lower blood pressure, stronger thigh muscles, and better aerobic capacity than walkers the same age who kept a more moderate, continuous pace.
    
In the study, the volunteers did three minutes of fast walking followed by three minutes at a slower pace,
    for 30 minutes per day at least four days per week.

  4. India to stop water flowing across international borders

    Several rivers flow from India into Pakistan, providing vital water supplies to about 80% of farms there. Pakistani leaders previously warned that any attempt to stop the flow of water "will be considered as an act of war".

    #IWT vs. "LLM/AI view" in #autism.

    Thank you, @FrightenedRat.

    So, semantics is of real importance here.

    The way you sum it up, the only difference b/w the two approaches boils down to this:

    Autistic children should be exposed to new experiences using "predictable routines".*

    Begs, the question, what are "predictable routines" that can be used? Probably not (just?) learning at the same desk at the same hours...?

    *I am excluding the...

    ...a complex theory not having been discussed in laymen circles doesn’t make a theory less likely to be correct.

    I am not claiming that this IS the case for #IWT, as my personal expertise is insufficient for this subject matter.

    Very interesting. Let's have a look at #PeterAutism hypothesis in addition, as phrased in "Autism and the predictive brain."

    First, though, still being a novice re/ #IWT, I will just take your summary "as is:"

    "IWT authors speculate that autistic kids may develop in a more balanced way in an environment that avoids sensory extremes/shocks that may overwhelm their hyper reactive neurology."

    That made a lot of sense to me. Peter, however states..

  9. Interval weight training was on the workout today.

    Set 1 - 5 rounds
    - 5 clean and jerk at 73% of 1RM
    - 1 min max kettlebell head cutters (track reps)
    - rest 1:15 between rounds

    Set 2 - 3 rounds
    - 20 devil's press
    - 2 min run (track distance)
    - rest 2:00 between rounds

    Set 3 - 1 round
    - 30 dumbbell burpees to upright row (track time)

    Rest 5 minutes between sets. Use the same weight on head cutters, devil's press and DB burpees to upright row
