Hunk of the day is Australian Personal trainer Nick Cheadle.
Could you tell us a bit of yourself and how you started training?
I started doing the typical beach weights routine around the age of 16 at school. Everyone just wanted to have a big chest and big arms, so most afternoons that we didn’t have school sporting commitments we’d be doing curls in the school gym.
I’ve now been a Personal Trainer for 3 years & it has been in this time that I have taken a genuine interest in proper training & nutrition. I run my own business ‘Nick Cheadle Fitness’ which involves one-on-one personal training & writing online meal plans & workout regimes.
How do you stay motivated?
I love the lifestyle I lead & I love looking the way I do. In my mind though, I’ll never have the perfect body, which means there will always be something to work on, something to improve upon. I want to lead by example to friends, family & clients that you can lead a healthy lifestyle, train hard & look & feel as good as you possibly can.
What is your diet like?
I follow IIFYM (If it fits your macros), which has really set me free in regards to letting my hair down a little. Generally I stick to clean, unprocessed foods however this gives me the freedom to change things up on the go – it’s not always possible to eat chicken and broccoli! As long as I hit my protein, carbs & fat goals for each day based on my goals then I’m good. Generally, I eat 5 meals throughout the day, each spaced around 3 hours apart from one another, as my body tends to work well like this. I also drink 5-6 litres of water a day. The main foods I eat include:
· Oats
· Brown/ basmati rice
· Soy lin toast
· Rice cakes
· Blueberries/ strawberries/ bananas
· Chicken
· Tuna
· Eggs & egg whites
· Protein powder
· Salads – tomatoes/ spinach/ mushrooms etc
· Broccoli & other mixed veggies
