New goal - Target 80.5kg - October 2nd - NATIONALS
-
this morning was TOUGH getting out of bed for the 5:50 alarm. But did, because that is what we do! <br />
<br />
weight [B]82.1kg, BF%7.9[/B]. Not worried, that was pre alpine.<br />
<br />
Worked out this morning as we were struggling along on our walk that we are walking about 40 kilometres a week at the moment, no wonder I am so bloody tired!!<br />

and classic - check out that link above - handsome couple in that photo eh!! -
8.726019418=495/((1.0324-0.19077*(1.57978359661681))+(0.15456*(2.25188145455252)))-450<br />
<br />
so, if your neck is 38CM then your % fat would be 8.73, according to this anyway, using log10<br />

<br />
And if your neck were 25cm, your body fat would be -5.6%, ergo dead<br />

36.5cm neck. and somwwhere hooroo, I'll track some fat bastard photos down for the punters enjoyment. I rmemeber Fiji for a mates wedding three or four years ago. was 105kg, and thought I was slim (although I was compared to playing days of 114kg)....<br />
<br />
How things change - my chest is now smaller than my waist used to be! -
OK,think I have managed to add a couple of files. <br />
<br />
Me and Deano (who weighed in at 80.3 for his Waikato comp a few weeks ago), from St Patricks Day 2007 (my wedding day), and the other from October 2008, at the top of the Wentworth valley in Whangamata. Must be a guy thing to pop out a double bicep pose when the camera points...<br />
and coming out of the water in the Isands somwhere while on a cruise - 2007ish too... -
Gee, I would hardly call you fat there, just bigger! <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /><br />

[B]weight 81.7kg, BF%7.7 [/B]<br />
<br />
New low on the weight, by 100g! Now just 1.2kg off competition weight, with dehydration to come. But by hell it is getting hard now - for both Ness and mine own self.<br />
<br />
Times like this is when you think 'why'? -
lack of energy and just running on empty all the time. It also takes longer to do shit, your brain is not working right, would hate to be crunching numbers for a living right about now that's for sure!!<br />
<br />
The willpower is no problem, or rather, little problem - we're that close to the goal that to fuck up now would be like training for a marathon, running the first 25 and a half miles, then deciding to stop.<br />
<br />
Fortunately though, family business so whanau help lots, and Ness does not schedule mad days at her beauty therapy! -

Outstanding Bart. loving your work. Personally my favourite double gun pose was a few years ago right under the Hollywood sign in.....well um Hollywood. Considering I had just come through Hawaii and weighed an all time high 108 kg ( thanks to Burgers, Piss, Pizza, chips, Piss, Tacos and some more piss ) they didn't look their best but the thought was there. I'll try and find it. <br />
<br />
That middle photo reminds me a bit of an old tune from yesteryear :-)......<br />

ok, using your:<br />
<br />
height 178.5<br />
waist 75.5<br />
neck 36.5<br />
the formula gives<br />
=495/(1.0324-0.19077*(1.591065)+0.15456*(2.251638))-450<br />
= 9.66% fat<br />
<br />
Not bad at all for accuracy, maybe slightly high.<br />
<br />
I got 18.5%, way too fat really at the moment-would prefer around 12%, for which I will need a waist of 78cm-which is impossible now even if I suck in totally. Anyway, it's summer and too hot to really push myself.<br />
<br />
Good luck, only a few days to go! -
81.8kg, 7.9%BF.<br />
<br />
Saw trainer today, and the way she is smiling, as I was going through the compulsory poses said it all. Scales also spoke loud and clear, BANG ON TARGET. Ready to dehydrate and compete. Even better news, Ness spot on too, we're both ready to roll. Which is great mentally, as we are both smashed physically. Energy low, eyes feel like they've been taken out and rolled in sand and put back in, zero appetite, everything as it should be!<br />
<br />
The appetite thing is funny - the less carbs you eat, the less food you want to eat, and at the moment with fish and chicken on the menu, along with a ton of veg, but zero seasonings etc, eating is purely for fuel, and zero enjoyment. So you can miss a meal before you know it, and not know it - but need to eat to keep the body going.<br />
<br />
We are certainly in the 'mind fuck' part of proceedings.<br />
<br />
Tahnkfully we are not far away from travel, and once on the road the mind will be taken off trivial things like food and Saturday the 28th will be here before we know it. We fly out Thursday middayish, so just have to survive until Wednesday - then on the big bird with our trainer and one other BB for the islands!<br />
<br />
goooo the calendar, and bring it on! -
Hooroo - getting fatter here!! March 2006, mates wedding, and [U][I][B]down [/B][/I][/U]to 105kgs (according to the scales at the Fiji airport). Mr and Mrs BartMan in their prime... THought there was no way I could get skinnier than that without being dead. And I was right...!!<br />
<br />
Thanks Crucial, you are right, nutters, but by fuck, nothing tastes sweeter than a snickers bar after weigh in on competition day! -
Sunday weight [B]80.9kg and 7.1%BF<br />
[/B]<br />
Monday weight[B] 81.5 and 7.2%BF.[/B]<br />
<br />
Sunday saw us have a mini carb up day = mini as in lots of rice wafers and fuck all else, so extra weight there is fluid retention, felt good though to get some carbs into the system. We're back carb low for the next few days, and then carb free for about three before comp day. <br />
<br />
WE packed our goody bags though on Saturday... -
nom nom nom!! I'm not starving myself and those munchies still look good!!<br />
<br />
Are the double up items to avoid bloodshed between you and Ness when the feeding frenzy begins!!? I would back her to take you out - a hungry woman is one of the most dangerous things on earth (even if she says she is Fine!)
