Pull-ups – 9 rounds + 9 = 54
Push-ups – 16 rounds = 136

Growing up on a livestock farm, I know a thing or two about this.

Livestock (cattle and swine) are fed a diet of grain after their nursing is complete. You’ll often hear farmers talk of “feeder” hogs and “finishing” hogs. The difference is the amount of grain consumption.

At any rate, these animals are fed this diet because “it fattens them up quickly. And like nearly everything in America, the bigger it is, the more it costs.

Thus the reasoning of the farmer. Make the animals weigh as much as possible, make more money. Unfortunately, the only prerequisite that the government puts on this policy is that the animal must be able to walk upon the scales at the slaughter house under its own weight.

That’s why you see many slaughterhouses kicking animals, using electric shocks, etc. It’s simply to get the animal to walk across the scale. If they collapse thereafter, it doesn’t matter. They’ve walked across the scale and the farmer gets his cash.

To view this scenario, I encourage anyone to visit the cattle “warehouse” in the Plain states. The treatment of these animals is horrendous.

And just think, you’re putting the same types of food into your body. Fortunately, you’re living under laws that prevent others from doing to you what is done to those animals.

To showcase that belief, give me your dog for a month. I’ll overfeed him/her and then stick the electric prod to its hind quarters when it can’t walk. And I’ll be adamant that you witness!

This is the beginning of the end.
