Here's Tombe's full interview
Tombe, welcome to Stunning Men and a big thank
you for taking the time to do the interview. Could we start off by talking a little about
yourself? You are from Australia, but
currently live in England. What brought you to the UK?
Well I’m
actually living in Brighton, which is nice as it’s on the sea. I came to the UK
to work and travel Europe for 2 years; however I’ve spent a lot more time
working than I planned!
I understand that you are heading back to
Australia soon. Have you been missing the life there?
Yes, I
definitely miss the warm weather! And there is a lot of food I miss too! Not
being able to surf and walk around in speedos is killing me!
I can definitely see you on the pebble beach in Brighton strutting your stuff in speedos ... maybe a little cold though! :-) You are an
entertainer as well as a fitness model; how important is being an entertainer
to you?
Very important. From a young age I have always love
entertaining. It’s where I get my greatest buzz from. I have a deep
appreciation for professional entertainers and the industry. Being able to
captivate audiences is an incredible feeling.
You have an amazing physique! How do you keep in
shape and healthy? Do you practise any sport?
I used
to compete in state level sprinting in school; however injury’s directed my
passion to boxing in later years. The last 2 years I have been focusing on natural
bodybuilding as a sport and loving it!
What are your top three favourite gym exercises
and why?
Deadlift, squats and shoulder press.
I love
these exercises because they are all compound movements. These are great for
increasing HGH levels and accelerating heart rate. If you can lift heavy in
these three exercises, expect great results!
And what’s the best form of cardio for you?
Hill sprints, with burpees at the top of the hill.
Now how do you keep motivated?
I look
at my competition daily. I see how they are doing. I watch their progress. And
then I beat them. Anger also fuels my fire when I see what I’m capable of.
Is it
difficult for you to fit training and fitness into your life?
No, not at all. I always plan ahead. If my day is
extremely busy then I wake up an hour early to cook my meals or go to the gym.
Planning and preparation is the key to effective organisation.
We know that
you guys keep a healthy lifestyle ... but if you had a cheat day, what would be
your favourite food?
I have a few: chips with gravy and melted cheese,
pizza, chicken parmi ... anything with cheese! (Tombe laughs)
Wow ... when you cheat, you really go for it! :-) Now what about modelling? How did it happen?
Well I was required to do many photo shoots
whilst working with Adonis Cabaret, and so it escalated from there. I made a
model mayhem account and started to find my own work.
What do you enjoy the most about it?
I love
doing the character/themed photo shoots. Soooo fun!!! Being able to dress up
and act silly.
Let’s talk
about photo shoots ... how do you prepare for them?
One week before the shoot I’ll do high intensity
cardio every day. I’ll change my gym routine to a high rep/high intensity
program, whilst making sure I drink 6-7 litres of water. Then on the day of the
shoot I drink lots of coffee and sip water.
May I say that you are a stunning looking guy? What do you think is
your best asset?
Well my mum says I have a nice jaw line
structure! (more laughs from Tombe)
Well, you should always listen to your mum! :-) And if you could change one thing about your body, what would that be?
I would love to have a nice linear bone structure
in my legs for competitions.
How do you
approach a challenge?
Always make a plan of action. Commit 100% to the
plan. Never be afraid to take a risk and fail. Draw inspiration from others.
What do you do in your down time?
Well, I love to surf and go
spearfishing.
Do you have any role models? People who inspire
you?
Everybody
usually spills out big famous names for this question; however the people who
inspire me the most are those who I see every day. My fellow Adonis Cabaret
strippers and local gym goers inspire me to achieve greatness. We all push each
other to work harder.
Now a few quick fun questions if we may? Do you
think you are a good date?
No way!
(big laugh from Tombe) I hate dating. And I hate relationships.
Now I dread to ask my next question ... What do you think is the secret to a good
relationship?
Nothing.
If it’s meant to be, it will be.
I should have known! :-) Now, are you a brief man or a boxer kinda guy?
Boxer
guy.
What do you listen to on your iPod?
Opera,
gangsta shit, hip hop, rock, indie, techno, house, trance, reggae ...
Wow ... very eclectic! Your favourite song or piece of music to play
while training or running?
Batman
soundtrack.
What kind of movies do you like?
Romantic
comedies.
What can’t you live without?
Tim
tams.
Best Australian import ... after Aussie hunks of course! :-)
Now could you finish these two sentences? You
wouldn’t know, but I’m very good at …
... cooking
and snowboarding.
At the same time? :-) Bad joke, sorry! ... but I’m just not very good at …
... maths.
What’s the best thing ever invented?
Toilet
paper – without it life is bad!
What three words describe you best?
Weird,
wonderful, wombat.
Wonderful! :-) One last question Tombe, where do you see
yourself and what would you like to be doing in 10 years time?
In 10
years I see myself changing how the world looks at natural bodybuilding. I want
to blow people minds and motivate millions to live a healthy life. I dream to
bring a healthy body to every human in the world. I dream big because if you
can dream … why dream small?
Tombe, it has been such fun and such a pleasure to interview you!
Thank you so much for your time and for being such good sport. All the best for the
future!
