200 attempt time

Molecular spectroscopy work done for the day:-)

Now im gonna give 200 a go.

Wanna shred off another 3 kg but heres where am at now.






* Unfortunately I missed my attempt tonight. Legs were like jelly at the bottom of 185 and stiff enough during the warm up. Im not a chinese freak after all...


1 heavy 1 light squat session this week followed by 5 day break with some speed work on deads etc and then ill try to get 192.5 kg at least!


On a side note i got my hands on some coconut butter tonight and chlorella tablets seeing as my noble gym proprietor doesnt want to run a wholesale superfoods company anymore.
My chicken and fried serano ham is tasting pretty fuckin good with this coconut oil. Think ill keep it in there.


Something I did not know about chlorella:
The plant's photosynthetic efficiency allows it to yield more protein per unit area than any other plant—one scientist predicted 10,000 tons of protein a year could be produced with just 20 workers staffing a one-thousand-acre (4-square kilometer) Chlorella farm. However, they ran into some unforeseen practical scenarios, one of which was the need for carbonated water during the growth phase, and, seeing as celluose is undigestible, there was a requirement for mechanical breakdown of the cell walls prior to release as a viable food source.


Well I have some and its about 45% protein (20% fat ,20% carb, 5% fibre, and 10% vits and minerals) by weight Assuming my chlorella was grown in good conditions i should be getting good bang for my buck in the polyunsaturates dept. "Chlorella minutissima has yielded EPA at 39.9% of total lipids." It is also a great heavy metal scavenger. I wonder how efficiently it interferes with the supplementation of glucose disposal agents like vanadyl sulfate and chromium polynicotinate then?

Well according to Ul'berg et al. Chlorella has a high capacity for vanadium biosorption (400-500 mg/g dry matter) and that this capacity can be improved by proper adaptation. This process could actually be used for purification of wastewaters. This is only the case however for for the free Vanadium (5+) ion. Vanadyl Sulfate has vanadium in its 4th oxidation state so this must mean you can supplement both at the same time.

When it comes to chromium I thought it was interesting that although Chlorella species are great with the adsorption of Cr(3+) ions in aqueous solution  Desorption studies showed that 98% of the adsorbed Cr(III) could be desorbed with 0.1 mol/L HNO3, while other desorbing agents were less effective in the order: EDTA > H2SO4 > CH3COOH > HCl. Again, this merely entails a decrease in efficiency so you should be fine to supplement Chromium(3+) polynicotinate or Cr(3+)picolinate with chlorella tablets.

Assuming my chlorella was grown in good conditions i should be getting good bang for my buck in the polyunsaturates dept. "Chlorella minutissima has yielded EPA at 39.9% of total lipids."

Yep Im bored and not on the piss tonight in case you were wondering. I dont have any readers yet. No one was wondering. Im in fact talking to myself here. Should probably get some mates or something.
