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!!!

Nick helped my wife and I begin our journey of healthy eating and weight loss. His programs were outstanding, and we both lost weight by following it. Nick is there every step of the way, being in constant communication with you and supporting you. We highly recommend Nick Knows Food Programs to everyone.

Honestly, if you are hesitating about whether to commit to Nick Knows Programs, I urge you - SIGN UP RIGHT NOW. You will not regret it - that I promise you. Nick Knows Programs have taught me a phenomenal amount, which I am so grateful for. His support and guidance was (and is) encouraging, practical, achievable, realistic, insightful and EFFECTIVE. Nick's bespoke program catered to my chaotic life and I can confidently say that I have benefitted from these programs, learning how to use bloody delicious and different foods to reach my goals as well as gaining a far better understanding of my body and mind. It is truly an unparalleled program - I lost roughly 8 KG in 12 weeks and have lost more since completing my program and I highly recommend it to anyone in search of a meal plan or lifestyle change. Thanks!

Nick has helped me achieve a 14 kg weight loss over 12 weeks. Ive also been training on a weights program designed by him for the past month.
Nick has helped tailor both programs to suit my life and provided me with the tools I need to continuously lead a healthy lifestyle. Nicks enthusiasm and positive outlook on life is contagious. He has motivated me to achieve and keep achieving my goals. Throughout the past 12 weeks, Nick has been consistently supportive and has addressed any issue or concerns no matter how trivial they may seem. Nick has been very professional while maintaining a fun and friendly environment since I started.
Nicks food program is super easy to follow and constantly changes to avoid boredom which makes it easy to stay on track. I have constantly had new recipe and cooking tips and tricks added to my collection. Not having to think about what to cook or what groceries to buy really helps too! I believe the true value lies with how much Nick commits to the client. I wasnt just given a bunch of things to eat each week, I received assistance, motivation and support encouraging me to lead a positive and healthy lifestyle.
All in all it has been a very enjoyable and rewarding experience worth every penny. I look forward to more Nick Knows in the coming year!

I did a 12 week bulking program with nick. I can honestly say it has changed my outlook on eating. Nick’s program not only teaches you to eat to look the way you want but i found that my sleep improved, my training improved, my mood and energy was a lot better. Most importantly my recovery was better. I would recommend nick knows programs to anyone who wants to build a healthier lifestyle and work towards their goal physique

Nick really does know! From training to eating, absolutely nothing is boring. Nick tailors programs specifically to your needs and makes it fun. The training is challenging and the eating really doesn't make you feel like you're on a 'diet' - one thing that surprised me is how many awesome habits I've developed since finishing my program with him. I wouldn't recommend anyone else higher.

When I started with Nick my goal was to loose weight and live healthier. Nick has helped me change my life and for that, I can't thank you enough. I have lost 24.2 kg in 12 weeks without any exercise and still loosing weight. His food programs are easy to follow and taste great. Nick is a true professional and with his support he will help you achieve your goal. Thank you Nick. ??

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.

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 ?

Personalised, fun, easy and ENJOYABLE food programs for all. I highly recommend Nick’s programs for anyone looking to live a more positive and active lifestyle- and lose a few kgs in the process! Thank you so much Nick!! 💪🏼

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!

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

Taking up Nick's food program helped me drop 8 kgs in 8 weeks and is one of the BEST decisions I have ever made !!! After 3 surgeries and gaining over 25 kgs I had lost hope of getting back to my fitness lifestyle. Nick helped give me the proper knowledge and direction i needed to see a positive change in my fitness and ultimately in my mental wellbeing !! Thank you Nick 🙂

Nicholas has helped me achieve some extra-ordinary results within such a short period of time. I have just completed week 4 of his program and with his ongoing support and well planned and structured meal plan I was able to achieve astounding results.
Nicholas was able to accommodate my wheat/dairy/sugar free diet with amazing and easy to cook meals that were both nutritious and delicious. To complicate matters I loosely follow the fodmap diet which he was able to incorporate within each week's meal plan.
Nicholas is knowledgeable, supportive and above all passionate about helping his client's achieve the best outcome for themselves, and I can honestly say it is because of his continued support that I have been able to achieve such AWESOME results.

Nick Knows! He really does! Do it, get in touch with him.
I sought Nick's help after hitting a plateau with my progress. I was strict, repetitive and tracking macros when it came to my food but it wasn't beneficial.
Nick is thorough, passionate and unbelievably knowledgeable. He structured my food plan around me and my lifestyle. He constructed my profile by knowing when I woke and went to sleep, when I trained and when I had the opportunity to eat throughout the day with work constraints etc. These aren't a one size fits all program. They a tailored specifically to the individual and their needs/goals and that's why it works!
The support, guidance and patience (haha) Nick had throughout my plan was second to none. I received my plan like clockwork, same time every Friday and Nick was quick to answer any questions I had. Beyond that the plan is easy to follow and the shopping list is even in the order that you'd find the products in the supermarket (call me OCD but I loved that haha).
In addition to the weekly plan, Nick always checked in after a weekend to see how freedom periods went and fluctuations we had - this is where you learn what your body is trying to tell you. Couple of tweaks and the fluctuations got lower.
His programs provide a sustainable approach to clean/healthy eating and living.
I feel fit, strong and lean. No bloating or water retention!
You're an absolute legend Nick! It's been an absolute pleasure ?

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 😛

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 🙂

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!!

Being an ex bodybuilder and pt I used to be in great shape but have struggled recently being older and having a more sedentary lifestyle. Being a know it all would make me a tough client as well. The meals are enjoyable and has catered to my diet of no dairy or meat. I've stayed the same weight but have lost fat and put on muscle. Is able to add my favorite foods into the diet plan. Is always available for feedback. My goal was abs in 8 weeks and i'm well on my way there.
8/25/2017
A big thank you nick for all your help over the 8 weeks. I learnt so much and am so happy to be back on track with food and exercise with such a busy schedule. Your knowledge and support is like no other and kept me motivated the whole way through! All the meal plans were so easy to follow and so yum!! I am so happy with results and looking forward to doing another plan!! Thank you again!!
