US EPA Title 40 Section 503 allows for wheat to be grown on sewage sludge.[22]Some uptake of heavy metals is possible.[23] Flour grown on sewage sludge is not USDA Certified Organic.[24]. Cereal crops such as wheat might become contamined with E. coli.[25] 
- from wikipedia, but still... now you really are eating shit.


-Update- I went and found the EPA title... see for your self.

Music:

* Completed this workout in 3:30... very dismal performance on my part. I came in straight from class, little warm up, still dressed in pants and just went for it. First round was smooth as a baby's ass but then I just DIED on the second round of pull ups. This killed my momentum and confidence. Not really sure what went on here because I never break on pull ups. Oh well, there will be more days ahead.

WOD
Power Snatch - build to a tough double

50 hspu for time

MOD: Pantyraid - BeBa


My log:
Pwr Sn - 185# x 2 (pleased with this, still had a bit left)
EMOTM - 95#, 105#, 115#, 125#, 135# (pretty surprised I hit 135 x 7 for the last set)
50 hspu: 3:58, I had 25 in the first minute... then the wheels fell off.

Monday, February 6, 2012

After much deliberation and considering I have been on about 3 days of rest/recovery... I opted out of the burpee/kbs wod for the thruster/c2b wod.

10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 Rep rounds for time of:
135# thruster
C2B Pull Up

Time: 13:34

I have NEVER done this many thrusters @ this heavy of a weight before...

Rounds 10,9, 3,2,1 Unbroken (all Pull ups unbroken)
 - spent the majority of my time staring at the bar in the rack and wishing I was dead.
Still feeling about 75% today... and the wod dominated me. Breathing was the main factor (decreased lung capacity due to congestion). Give me a little time and this is a sub 10min wod fo sho.


Got a new artist I've been rockin... Mainly post wod foam rolling since all the music I can remember during workouts is about the first 15 seconds of whatever is playing once I start.


Oh and BTW... help me nail a big snatch by keeping your eyes and ears open for a  decently priced NEW or USED oly bar.
