TRAINING
Nick is a personal trainer and puts his shape down to alot of hard work int he gym, but makes a point of mentioning how important diet is. As a naturally slim guys who excelled at endurance events as a teen putting on muscle was always hard.
Athletics and rugby always gave him a strong fitness element but muscle was always hard to gain. Lifting higher reps 10-15 reps has always worked best.
"People say its light weights at 12 or 15 reps, but there is nothing light about what we lift. We perform higher reps as all research suggest those with a larger amount of slow twitch fibre type make more gains at higher reps, This is exactly whats ive found. We lift big and we lift heavy. We just do it over a few more reps".
DIET
As a small guy diet is essential. An early breakfast (5-6am) consists of 2 chicken breasts and a tin of beans. 3 pieces of fruit during the morn and an early lunch of 10 egg whites after training. Again Nick eats more fruit during the day before a big meal of usually chicken or steak at around 2-3pm. This keeps him going with only one or two more pieces of fruit before he finishes the evenings work and before bed he usually consumes either more chicken or £4-£5 of lean ham.
"I am a fussy eater and dont like alot of foods so my diet is very restricted. I wish i liked protien shakes cause they would save me alot of cooking"
