    Achieving results can produce two outcomes... boy am I happy I chose option 1 brother! With Nick you get a genuine mentor who wants to see you succeed. Someone who puts a vast amount of time into you and your goals. You learn a sustainable approach to cleaning up your eating habits, losing weight, getting healthier, getting stronger or whatever it is you want to gain from the experience. Not only does Nick go beyond that, he even makes sure to include perfectly cropped photos of items that are hard to find in the supermarket hahaha something that was very handy and not something you get elsewhere. The last 12 weeks with Nick have not only been enjoyable but have made me completely change my thought of the word Diet. His realistic and effective ways of approaching programs made it interesting, challenging but most of all rewarding. Whether your stuck on how to perform a particular exercise correctly or not liking something in the diet plan, Nick is always there to answer your questions in detail. So if your thinking about changing your ways, give Nick a go. He Knows, trust me. Highly Recommended!!!

    5 star review  Massive shoutout to nick! Last 8 weeks really challenged me but I learnt a lot about how my body responds to different types of foods and portions. It didnt really feel like I was dieting cause the meals where very creative and really satisfying? feeling a lot more energised and leaner ?

    5 star review  I've always been a naturally slim build so I started training 3 years ago to gain weight and build muscle. However the last year I had reached a plateau and wasn't seeing any changes with my body. I knew my poor eating habits were effecting my results, but I had the perception that food prep and dieting was all too hard! That was until Nick introduced me to his tailored food programs. The 8 week program wasn't a diet at all, Nick listened to all my food intolerances, my lack of cooking skills...and still created YUM healthy meals that have become part of my lifestyle even after finishing the program. I have so much more energy when I train, I feel great and the physical results have been AMAZING!!! Thank you Nick!

    I heard of Nick through my brother who was previously on Nick's 12 week program and was aiming to bulk up in muscle (which he was able to successfully do on the program). I would always come home and find that the meals he was preparing from Nick's meal plans smelled and looked amazing. That was enough for me to see the effectiveness of his coaching and so I had a 13 week plan done for me. As a result, I was able to significantly increase my muscle mass while simultaneously making drops in body fat and weight. The changes made in this short period of time is a lot more than I expected with great food and enjoyable workout sessions. More so, the routine helped me on more than just a physical level, with my sleep patterns, motivation, focus, determination and organisation all improving as a result. Nick is a down to earth, fun guy who is able to make your goals seem realistic and works with you to achieve them in a refreshing way. Doing this program, you never have to force yourself to eat something you don't want or do anything you are uncomfortable with in order to achieve your ideal self. I would definitely recommend for people 10/10 🙂

    5 star review  I first met Nick through a friend at a wedding. I wasn't confident in myself at all in the way my body was looking. Nick spoke to me and gave me the confidence I needed to guide myself into a new way of life. Since that time not only did he help me accomplish my goal at creating a greater body and diet, but also became a good friend. Nick is an incredible human and I thank him for what he has done for me, with hard training and influence, I lost 14 kgs and gained a better body just in time for my Europe trip. With an excellent weekly diet that helped me massively and wasn't costly at all. Thank you Nick Knows Food Programmes for everything and I'll definitely be using you again the minute I'm back ??????

    5 star review  From the age of 18 I've been training and competing in high-level competitive sport for most of my life. I come from a powerlifting/bodybuilding background and even though all the knowledge and experience I had collected over the years, nutrition has always been my Achilles heel! I can only think of one time in my life that I was content I could not do any more to be leaner or fitter. I had finally done it right or so I thought!!! I became very sick and was not able to maintain any kind of balance and as a result lost all my hard earned gains! From there on I fought a losing uphill battle to try to get back there or even close to what I was. Now at 44 years of age it has become more difficult than I ever imagined. The added stresses and unfortunate injuries with work and the body breaking down over time, I was really in a rut and probably the worst condition I'd ever been in. Even after altering my training countless times over the years, nothing was working like it used to That's when a friend of mine who has already had great success with Nick,introduced me to Nick and his "Nick Knows" nutritional and training programs. What a God send it's been!!!From the very beginning, the introduction, Nick's mannerism,his professionalism and attention to detail, his listening and understanding of your needs and goals, I knew I had struck gold, found the perfect person, program, and fit for me!! After a very thorough conversation on what goals i wanted to achieve it was decided that I go on his 12 week nutritional plan. The food and recipes are absolutely amazing! Simple and delicious! I had no idea clean and healthy eating and food could taste so good as well as at the same time helping you to lose the unwanted kilos! The recipes and meals are super easy to follow and prepare and the shopping list is well organised and inexpensive too. No wasted food. It's all calculated and portioned for your needs and for each meal for the week! "Eating healthy" they say "is too expensive".Not true!!!! Nick has been great I can't fault him at all. He makes himself available all the time whether you have any questions or you're unsure about something he was always very responsive! Very supportive and patient and he definitely is on this journey with you 100% every step of the way! I can't express enough how happy and grateful I am to have been on this journey with Nick! I was able to smash my goals. It's just the beginning for me and I'm already into the first week of my second 12 week nutritional plan and look forward to continuing to form a great relationship with Nick and knowledge of healthy clean eating! If there is one thing I wish to take out of this whole journey it is to arm myself with knowledge and understanding of nutrition and how to maintain a healthy balanced body and lifestyle that not only is a blessing to me but all the people around me especially my family and my children. I do it for me but mostly for them. Thank you Nick for everything you are a legend!!!

    If you are looking for a food and/or training program that WORKS, here it is! Huge thank you to Nick Knows for the last 12 weeks of my food and training program. I have lost over 10kgs but gained so much more! A sound understanding of what to fuel my body with, the knowledge of how to train my body and shed weight and gain muscle, how to make and incorporate better food choices on a daily basis, and best of all a complete appreciation for what I am capable of and a stronger mindset. I am less bloated, have tonnes of energy, am the lightest I have ever been in my life, and I feel stronger and healthier everyday! Nick has changed my life in many positive ways and the best part is these changes have become and will stay a constant in my life now! The experience has been amazing! Thank you Nick Knows!!

    5 star review  A big thank you to Nick for the last 12 weeks of my meal program. Not only have I learnt a lot from you but I have also learnt a lot about myself within that time. To work around my complicated roster like you did, with meal and training times, was unbelievable. Have dropped 10 kilos within that time and I’m truly happy with the end result. Have learnt so much about Healthy eating and making food enjoyable, to weighing food portions and meal prep. I would recommend Nick to anyone in need of a training or meal plan. Nick is so passionate about what he does and it really shows. Nick a big thank you again for everything you have done and will definitely be back to do another meal program in the near future

    I have been on Nick’s food plan for 11 weeks now and can’t believe the results I have achieved,, without starving myself.. The ease of the shopping list and meal plans with the great recipes and huge variety is a big win. My goal was to lose 10kgs over the 12 weeks and that was super easy .. I could still enjoy my treats and was able to still eat the foods that got me FAT and HEAVY and still lose the weight I wanted. I have already lost 12 kgs and am fitting into my old clothes VERY HAPPY... My energy levels are up and I feel like going to the gym of an afternoon as before it was always a challenge. I am super happy with the feedback and support you get from Nick along the way. I have sung the praises of Nick’s food program to heaps of my friends and family and would say to anyone who asks me DEFINITELY GIVE IT A GO

    5 star review  Loosing weight is hard, so damn hard. And not in the sense of going to the gym and working out. To me thats the easy bit. The hard bit is your food choices after you finish gym. How much of a certain type of food to eat? Is it possible to over eat a certain type of food even though its healthy? Mentally training yourself about your food choices, every, single, day. The last 12 weeks with the help of Nick has definetly educated me and guided me in the right direction of food choices and a balanced life style. The great thing about Nicks programs was that there was So much variety and great tasting meals. Which is important as I get bored so quickly. There were times where I had to ask Nick if he could re add a certain meal the week after because I didnt want that meal to end! Thank you Nick for your time, support and knowledge through out the last 12 weeks! I am now 6 kilos down and I can finally say Im building my confidence back up again! I would definitely recommend Nicks programs to anyone who is ready for some serious change!

    All I can say is that if you want results then you neeeeed to email Nick ASAP. I have tried so many 8 week or 12 week challenges but none like Nick Knows Programs. I am currently on my last week of my 12 week program and I am 1000% satisfied with the results I have gotten by following his meal plans. He has not only helped me change my perception of my physical state but he has helped me mentally. He has made me open my eyes to see that it’s not all about the number of the scale. He has been by my side helping me through my off weeks and good weeks to keep me motivated. It’s not boring food either ! I am down 6.4 kgs and still haven’t done my last weigh in! I am currently about to subscribe to do another 12 weeks once I finish my current program. Thank you Nick !

    Nick Knows Meal plan simply cannot be beaten! Every meal is carefully planned and personalised to achieve the best possible outcome. They are super easy to cook, specially for working people like me, and they taste delicious. I loved the way I have learned to cook with spices and herbs instead of using sugary sauces and/or salt. Nick is an amazingly understanding and encouraging person. The follow ups and regular check-ins have by far exceeded my expectations and they have helped me being accountable and express my thoughts without the fear of being judged. I am grateful for all the efforts Nick has put in for me and I wanted to say a big THANK YOU for helping me qualify for the Marathon next year 🙂 . Nick you are the best! bring on the next 12 weeks! 😀

    5 star review  Nick is the real deal. Completely and utterly passionate about what he does and knows the ins and out of food and how to tailor it to your body type and lifestyle. The most important thing was creating a good relationship with food, which i'm an all of nothing person so this is what I needed. I started with Nick 12 weeks ago at 58.7kg and am now at 52.9kg - creeping up to 6kg loss. It's something i have learnt and will keep. I urge you to give Nick a go you will not be disappointed 🙂 ps this guy seriously knows his herbs and spices 😛

    5 star review  Nick helped me achieve my goal to loose 5kg in 8 weeks before my wedding. I ended up losing 6kg and would like to thank Nick for his professionalism, support, advice and his excellent food program written specifically for me. I could give him feedback each week on what I liked and what I didnt like and the following week my program would be written around these requirements/discussions. I found Nick to be extremely knowledgeable and very fast at replying to all my email questions no matter how many I had. I seriously have tried so many food programs before and nothing has ever worked for me, this is the first time in 6 years I have found something to work. My wedding is now 1.5 weeks ago and I am back at home and back to work - I will now adopt a similar program using the food knowledge he passed onto me. This is now an ongoing lifestyle choice for me and I thank Nick for passing on his knowledge.

    Id like to start off by thanking Nick for the past 12 weeks. Been a really good experience, dieting for once was actually enjoyable, mouthwatering and filling. I was really energised throughout the 12 weeks, portion sizes were great and never had a problem getting the meals together. I am definitely looking forward to doing this once again and recommend his programs to anybody looking to smash their goals. #NickKnows

    5 star review  bro, I dont know how to thank you so much for guidance over these 12 weeks man, was the best ride and I learnt so much and really pushed my body in my training and pushing myself mentally not only in the gym but to come back to work late and still my food for the next day. I learnt so much as well over the 12 weeks its ridiculous, I've never felt so good as well at this weight its epic.

    Big thank you to Nick for helping me through my 12 week food program - the end result was a loss of 10.3kg. The whole experience taught me how to create sustainable eating habits without compromising my time/work. I especially loved how each week was a different set of recipes, and that I was never bored with the program. Nick was very attentive to my feedback and his advice and mentorship throughout was filled with positivity and determination, which was very much appreciated. Sometimes it's the journey that's more important than the destination, and in this case, my journey through Nick's 12 week food program was so enjoyable that I can see myself continuing this lifestyle for years to come.

    What should you expect doing one of Nicks programs? Its the feeling of not ever feeling bloated or sick after meals. The feeling of being squeaky clean and light on the inside. The feeling you get when youre trying something on and have to ask for a smaller size. The feeling of trying on all those clothes that youve pushed to one side of your cupboard, because they just stopped zipping up, and having them fit like a glove again. The feeling of getting ready in the morning, looking in the mirror and thinking 'this looks great' as opposed to 'this will do'. The feeling of actually being excited to try on bikinis for summer, and not dreading it. Doing my Nick Knows eight week food program felt like a big bunch of all those feelings and I cant recommend it enough! Ive learnt some amazing new recipes (which I actually still cant believe are healthy, because they taste so good) which I will incorporate into my everyday life, about portion sizes, what I should be eating and when and also how my body reacts to different foods. Nick I cant thank you enough for your support, encouragement, passion and knowledge!

    Where do I start! This man is a bloody genius with everything nutrition and training wise but the best thing about nick is his personality and guidance. He is there the whole way however you need as any great coach should be. I’ve tried other coaches for guidance and to assist track me and none offered the support and personalised approach that nick did! Being a trainer/coach myself i was so intrigued with his food and training styles and methods that I wanted to see what he can do for me and in the meantime pick his brain and learn as much as I could! He delivered and taught me an endless wealth of information! During the whole course of my program I never once wanted to quit or had the urge to cheat or go off the course at all ....even during holiday/silly season haha - Managed to lose 6kgs of fat - Gain muscle - Changed my whole approach to food... even the ones I hated haha Nick is the Man! Can not recommend him enough honestly! Most of all this guy is an absolute gentleman with a great Heart and someone who I can actually now call a great friend! ❤️

    Nick is the most genuine, decent guy I've ever known in the fitness industry. That authenticity comes through from his supreme knowledge of food and exercise, he tailors everything to your individual needs and is with you all the way. He Is real. Such a change from the sales driven short term programs out there and that's what a cynical know-it-all like myself needed. I dropped 4-5 kgs on the program which was my target but more importantly, the composition of my body and mind has changed and I know what I'm doing thanks to him. My journey on this program is just beginning! If anyone is looking at improving their health and mindset, give this guy a try because you will be blown away with the outcome.

    5 star review  I met nick a few years ago, followed his page and after a low period decided I’d sign up. I went with the 12 week food and training package and finished only a week ago. Nick was always responsive, encouraging, checked in and provided really well structured training and food plans, right down to the ingredients list for my preferred outlet. Mate I can’t thank you enough, I can see change physically and am keen to continue the habits you have taught me in eating and training. I think it would be wise to set up something even longer term! This has changed my life from a health and fitness perspective and allowed me to open my mind to many lifestyle changes, increased cognitive ability and feel like I’m on fire !Thanks a lot mate 🙂
