You Won't Believe Bruno Duarte's Body Transformation

Charter season may be over for now, but not all of the Below Deck pals are taking a break — some of the crew is still putting in some serious work between charters. And by some people, we mean Valor deckhand Bruno Duarte. Bruno was notorious on the Valor for taking great care of his body, and the crew definitely never missed out on an opportunity to impress their charter guests with Bruno's solid physique — remember when Kate Chastain and Matt Burns made him into a human sushi platter, and the guests ate California rolls off of his abs?

We wanted to see what the Below Deck deckhand was up to in between seasons, and it looks like Bruno is still very much into fitness. In fact, he’s looking a little bit buffer than usual these days as Andy Cohen pointed out at the reunion…

As it turns out, Bruno is spending his free time working out — a lot. He's gained siginificant muscle mass and is serving fitness model realness. When he's not shocking us with his massive muscles, Bruno travels and eats delicious food, a nod to his time as Matt's unofficial sous chef. 

With muscles like that, we get the feeling that Bruno will have a much easier time working as a deckhand. Definitely no rope burns on his next charter.
