    84.1 this morning on scales, training been going well, managed to survive a few later nights and not ruin training next morning. <br />
    <br />
    Watched a comp in the weekend, the Waikato champs, and three girls from the Whanga gym competed, placing first in womens barbie doll, first in novice physique, and 4th inbarbie doll. Bloody inspiring to be there and see the reults from these girls, they looked wicked.<br />
    <br />
    Visit to PT tomorrow, and we have our coreographer going through our routines tomorrow night too. Amazing the people that are willing to help out and have expereince in this sort of thing that come out of the woodwork when they see what is happening.<br />
    <br />
    Local Sterling SPort also coming to the Party with an interest free HP agreement for a spin bike for our evening cardio sessions - matching the deal we could have got in Tauranga. Like to keep things local!! Rowing machine too noisy to be cranking out a half hour in the living room at 7 pm!!<br />
    <br />
    So all going good at this time!!

    well, I have shrunk - in height. 1.78m means I have to weight in at 80 kilos come October ten. Currently between 84-86 depending on what time of day I weigh in!<br />
    <br />
    So my cardio has been upped to 4 x 40 minute sessions a week, weight sessions and eating remain the same. <br />
    <br />
    Also the start of our couples routine run through last night, and it is wicked - will be a lot of work for my two left feet, but ten weeks to go. If we nail this, the crowd, as they say, will go wild!!<br />
    <br />
    And as always, super amped up after a visit to the PT.

    Sunday morning after hour and a half walk / run (you know the track hooroo, the one we ran) weighed in before any food intake at 82.7kg. So that goal weight of 80 kg probably not that far off, especially once these extra cardio sessions start tom bite!!

    [quote name='BartMan']Mainlander - yes, they worked for me within days, and when I don't take them, feel the pain coming back too...<br />
    <br />
    So time to does up on more than eh WTW!!![/quote]<br />
    <br />
    Seem to be working for me as well, or at least on one Knee, the other is still being a problem, not while jogging but more at night, have to sleep with it hagging over the side of the bed, any sideways pressure by the bed wakes me up in real pain. Am having a specialist have a look at it in 4 weeks as I reackon it's going to be another op on it, don't know when I'll be able to fit that in though.

    OK, a real weight of 83.4kg this morning - 6.2% body fat.<br />
    <br />
    Legs today, and the three sets of 20 reps, minute rest in between. so that is 138% of my bodyweight for 20 reps. No wonder it hurts for those last ten of the last set - almost like 10 singles!!

    that 120 is about what five or more years ago though...<br />
    <br />
    This weight loss has been from the 95-97 mark I have floated aruond for the last few years!!<br />
    <br />
    Expect I'll get back up to about 87-90 when I finish this, ceratinly going to do nother comp, but hopefully will be in heavier category - getting down to 80kg is a real battle. I am only two years off maters though xzxgood which is the over 40s... heh heh heh.

    fark me sideways witha rowing machine...<br />
    <br />
    My first row on Sunday for 4 months or so. 20 minutes (followed by 20 on a bike for my 40 minutes cardio) and almost died. 5102 metres, but just zero in the tank, was struggling. The lack of carbs in my diet at the moment certainly showing there!! but felt good to be on the machine!!

    So does that mean you got burn in your legs quickly and couldnt sustain it? <br />
    <br />
    I've noticed recently how important energy is when cycling. I "bonked" during a long ride but when I had a muesli bar, some water and gel, I was right again straight away. <br />
    <br />
    Apparently the body has three sources of energy which it calls on. Does anyone know much about this?

    Is that you Bart? Mate incredible transformation (compared to me you looked incredibly ripped even before you began this odyssey), youve obviously worked your socks off. The back pose photo is freaky shit!
