Hey ladies!!!
I'm ordering some of the girls from the 4:30 class Pink Ribbon Sweaty Bands for the Barbells 4 Boobs fundraiser on October 30th. There are two choices, and they are $15 each, before tax/shipping.

If you want one, email me, tell me which one you want, and bring in $17. I'd like to order them this Friday (10/22) or Saturday, so, we'll be sure they're shipped in time. My email is: [email protected]

I actually am proud to say I already own this sweaty band! It was the first one I ever bought two years ago for the Ribbon Run. :-)

755 PR by 65 lbs
BS: 225 255(30 lb PR) 275(X)
SP: 125 135(5 lb PR) 145(X)
DL: 315 345(10 lb PR) 365(30 lb PR)

I shouldn't have tried to increase as much on BS and SP, felt like I could have gotten 265 and 140 but the 3 lift limit changed my gameplan. DL was ugly, very ugly.

Thumbs up Tasha!! Now, we'll all be on board with you!! =o)

The grain article is already causing a fuss on the paleo hacks forum.

This is just another example of an isolated find being taken as a great discovery in the paleolithic human diet.

Here is the key to this poorly written article.

"new findings indicate grains were part of the diet at ancient sites"

Then a few sentences later.
"the residues appear to originate mainly from cattails and ferns"

Cattails and ferns aren't grains. They are starchy, but so is a sweet potato.

People will read this and think "oh the meat and veggie folks are wrong." I say if you think so, go pick some cattails, dry them out, grind them to a flour manually, then add nothing more than water to make a dough. I bet you won't be including much cattail bread in your diet.

this might end up being a stupid question but... what is the difference between the two sweaty bands?

Not a stupid question. One is pink with a brown background, the other is pink with a lighter pink background......ooops. Here's the brown/pink link.....

40lb back squat PR is crazy. Nice work. Hopefully the PRs will stick around until the 5:30 class for me.

Justin, wear a belt for your back squat. I can tell a huge difference with one on. This is also because my abs are as weak as a 5 year olds.

AmandaJ says:

October 20, 2010 at 5:46 am

Excellent point

Kristi Simmons says:

October 20, 2010 at 5:48 am

I would rock even more, huh?!

Kristi Simmons says:

October 20, 2010 at 5:49 am

Even without this article they already say the "meat & veggie folks have it wrong"

Kristi Simmons says:

October 20, 2010 at 5:51 am

Jake, this is a very reassuring statement. To know what a beast you are & how accomplished you are with those "weak as a 5 year olds" abs makes me feel better about my potential :)

Robert,
I think it's important to keep the what did "Paleo" people eat? debate in perspective. For one, no one will ever actually prove their hypothesis on the subject without the presence of a time machine and a couple decades of traveling around the prehistoric world taking data from different communities of our ancestors. I for one don't buy the argument that grains are a genetically inferior food. I think our ancestors probably ate them in small quantities as a supplement to fatty meats and raw fruits and veggies, but only because I can't imagine them passing up a potential food source EVER. That being said, I might be totally wrong, The bottom line is that no article, new finding, or change to this hypothesis can alter the effectiveness of the quality food diet that we base on the Paleolithic model. Is it accurate? who cares It works.

I agree!! Forget the science... all I know is my stomach seems to explode and become very gassy when I eat any grains now (yes, bad mental picture).

You know, I figured out why Larry is a BAMF in this pic. He is actually smiling in the middle of a burpee!!?!! That's disturbing and impressive all at the same time.
If this were me, my face would be a slobbering, contorted mess much like a victim of one of Tyson's knockouts.

I couldn't agree with your points more. We will never be able to prove what a hunter/gatherer actually ate. We know what we eat is based on a hypothetical H/G diet, and it works. I don't think any food source was ever passed up. I do think that grains played a minimal role in the diet of H/Gs simply due to the amount of processing required to make them edible. Genetically inferior..No, generaly bad for your health... Yes.

The biggest reason I don't like this article is that it will easily be taken as another reason to solidify the thought that the grain based modern western diet is the way to go.

DL wasn't the prettiest, round back and all, but glad to pull if off the ground and get it up.
