Pride cometh before a fall...

Super stuff Bart. I was already big noting your prowess on Friday to a body builder who was going to watch your show the next day.

[Fonzie]

redbeard - you groupy.<br />
<br />
now all bart needs is a couple of sponsors - although you cant get much on those dick togs

[Duluth]

Great work again<br />
<br />
Athletic vs Physique? Is that just a weight division?

[MN5]

Whats the bodyfat % at the moment Bart ?

[BartMan]

buggered if I know on that % MN5 - on our scales at home which are pretty flash reads between 3 and 6 over that last week.<br />
<br />
Yeah Duluth, pretty much weight divisions. Athletic you take your height in CMs and take of 98, and that is the max weight you are allowed. The Physique bugggers are open weight I think - might have a height thing, but weight is much more than the athletics.<br />
<br />
SO my max weight is 80.5. Weighed in at 79.3 in track pants and tee shirt.

Holy shit. Not enough fat on you to fry an egg Bartman ! although you'd be better off having them poached without the yolks I'd imagine xzxcool

[Dodge]

are there any photos anywhere of the nationals Bart?

<br />

<br />
and here are some from that site.

What are the highlights since you've had time to recuperate? What do you love doing/not doing now the comps are out of the way???<br />
<br />
Are you still training?

[BartMan]

mate, no highlights yet. Still retaining fluid like crazy and not feeling that flash at all to be honest - bloated and unwell. Not training, took the week off and back into next week. See out trainer on Tuesday and get new programmes and eating plans for the next few months then. Next comp in May or June of next year.<br />
<br />
Think the cumulative effect of leaning down twice in two weeks have made the after effects (we retained fluid after the first one too, but only for a couple of days before the body came right) worse. No way would I recommend doing two in two weeks to ANYONE!<br />
<br />
Have had some judges talking to my trainer about me going up to the physique class - the massive dude on he right. I wouldn't mind, but Mrs B doesn;t like the 'freaks' very much. I think my legs are already to that level, upper body is where the work would have to be. If I could keep my symmetry I wouldn't mind, but I don't want to look too big. I like the fact that I throw a tee shirt on and no one knows that I am a BB!
