I am a bit concerned Vince all of the photos are of your upper body only. Where are the legs man?BR/I am qualified to ask as I have competed in over 30 bodybuilding contests and have a New Zealand National title to prove it. BR/Can’t go far without wheels!BR/Carrie
FAME 2008 Pictures
As I write this to you my body is attempting to digest a large cheese burger, a large fries, 2 large garlic cheese breads, 3 pints of Heineken beer and a chocolate chip ice cream cake.
That was my post contest “cheat meal” but I m trying to convince myself it was a “treat meal.” :)
Here are some pictures of myself from the past weekends competition. I competed in Muscle Model (bodybuilding looking physiques with 4-6% fat), Fitness Model (Men’s Health cover look) and a Swimsuit category which I’m still not totally sure of the “look” I was judged on.

There was 25-30 guys in each category and they only announced the top 3 of each category. I did not place in Muscle Model or Fitness Model but earned 3rd spot in Swimsuit. I honestly was not too concerned with my overall placing because the judging is so subjective (and IMO very biased but that’s another story for another day)…
Not bad for 6-8 weeks of DIALED IN muscle building training and eating but I know I would have done way better if I had given myself an extra 6 weeks to drop into sub 5% body fat.
Over the 3 days I had a camera crew follow me around and I recorded over twenty different “video coaching lessons” that will teach you how to create a jaw dropping mid section and confidence that will become contagious to everyone around you.
Train hard because it’s WORTH IT,
Vince DelMonte

Great Job on leaning down!BR/BR/I have a question. I purchased your NNMB program a while back and have been using it. What is the difference between your new “ab fat loss” book you are going to release compared to your NNMB precontest cutting manual? BR/BR/Joey

You look awesome. Just a silly question: why do people have to look this tanned?BR/It looks so artificial…BR/Congrats, Vince. You’re an inspiration!

Glad you liked the pics… I feed off of these comments to train harder and try to keep my head small :) BR/BR/The reason I’m so dark is because I “spray tanned” to get that bronze look. The reason you need this is because on stage, the lights are SO bright, that they will drown out any muscle definition you have. I learned this the hard way on Friday night… the judges said I would have done better (because my physique was comparable) but I was not dark enough so I liked undefined and soft on stage. BR/BR/My new ab and fat loss system is completely different then my NNMB fat loss program. I’ll share more details next week.
