    Great pics there Bart.<br />
    <br />
    Just a question, I note from the other thread you do 40mins cardio machine work for a workout. Out of interest what is that for and what is the impact on your bodybuilding? Is it interval work?

      mate, it's 40 minutes of torture. Not interval, just slow and steady, get a sweat going, nothing more than 70% of a hard out workout. Just fat burning. Go any harder and you burn into the muscles, which you don't want to do. Theory i beleive is to get your energy from your fat, as the few carbs I am on at the moment are meant to be enough to fuel my weight workouts.<br />
      <br />
      Whatever the reason, they are the hardest and longest 40 minute stationary cycles I have ever had to do in my life!!! Each minute seems to take an hour!!

                    When you say entire bodywax....? Awesome though work Bart, your face now has that really really fit, sickly gaunt look to it. Muscles on muscles, you are putting members of Fat Fighters like me to shame. All the best for the comp.

                        Now that you have been getting so many positive comments, can I make one small Zoolander reference about the last photo? No? OK then.

                            When you come and pick up your dumbbells can you please keep your shirt on ? I don't want to look bad in front of the wife. Cheers. xzxcool<br />

                            Not enough fat on either of the Barts to fry an egg, outstanding effort from the pair of them.

                              Mrs Bartman is as cut as you now bro!!!! I can't believe the change in less than a month. Looking fantastic!!!<br />
                              <br />
                              You two are going to kill it man! I'm so impressed at the dedication and transformation in you both, especially in the last month

                                <br />
                                Amazing what the body (and mind!) can achieve - Like Hooroo said even a few weeks ago you both looked in mean shape and cut as but that last set of pics are epic. Well done guys.<br />
                                <br />
                                where was the comp again? would be primo to have some local ferners show up and wave burgers at ya from the audience!! xzxfishing <br />

                                    Fucking good work Bart,<br />
                                    <br />
                                    Just out of curiousity where did you find your trainer? I can get to 10-12% but struggle to go lower, would love to have an eating/cardio/weights plan from an actual former bodybuilder (which I assume is what has happened?)<br />
                                    <br />
                                    Where would I find someone like that and how much does it cost? also how long did it take you to get from 10% to 6%?<br />
                                    <br />
                                    Show us the wheels!

                                      fucking impressive Bart, I trust you're going to follow the obligatory half bottle of wine the night before the competition to make sure you're dehydrated enough to be properly cut on the day? Just make sure you're not too dehydrated, apparently collapsing with cramps whilst posing is pretty painful...

                                        Bart obviously things like pushups and pull ups will be a breeze now but how are your strength gains ? as powerful as when you were a rampaging front rower ?

                                          Hey Bar - Teresa Edwards, multi time NZ champion as carious things! She is wicked - from the eating plan to the training - all mapped out, you just have to get stuck in and DO IT!!<br />
                                          <br />
                                          WHere abouts are you based? If in NZ, i could ask Teresa who is good nearby to you?<br />
                                          <br />
                                          Dodge - Trainer has all that sorted for us, carbing up and down and chocolate and booze and you name it. I thin the Allies on D-Day weren't as organised as Teresa!!<br />
                                          [b]<br />
                                          October 10 - Wellington Regional Championships - Lower Hutt Town Hall.[/b] Anyone who wants to come along and shoud for Mr and Mrs BartMan feel free, apparently is good for competitors to hear plenty of noise while on stage in their fucked up mental states!!! WIll let you know about that one!
