Fuck a duck! In the words of Ford Fairlane "Unfuckenbelievable". Serious question time, do you feel really healthy and fit in that condition, or would you prefer a few more Kegs on ya? Are you energy levels as high or ican it be a struggle to function/think clearly at times somedays?

BartMan

mate, the last week is madness-memory fucked up, short temper, all bad, but you struggle through it. UP untoil the lats month of serious food deprivation, you are the fittest and healthiest you have ever been. Neiother me or the Mrs sick at all this winter - we both usually get a few sniffles. But eating and food intake of vegetables has never been as hig - almost zero processed and fatty foods. you can't help BUT be healthy. It's just when you near game day that it is fucked! Much like rugby. All the traiin gis healthy, the 80 minutes of full body contact bashing is not healthy for you.

Well done Bart, and Mrs Bart. xzxgood 
Just comparing the before and after photos and just blown away. Amazing effort from both of you, and for an averagely fit 42 year old (me, that is), inspiring. 
All the best for the Nationals.

Holy shit Bart! The both of you look amazing! The differance from the early photos to the competition ones is unbelievable. Incredible job by both of you, congratulations and good luck in the Nationals!

Duluth

Great work! That's some incredible discipline getting that dry look 
 
So are totally hooked on this now? Are you going to go for an 'offseason' bulking? Also do the judges give you feedback after the show?

Worth posting the before and after comparison that Hooroo tried on the previous page;
