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
