As the proud owner of Krunch Gym in Waltham Abbey, Essex, Neale has always been passionate about achieving in life, especially when it comes to Health & Fitness.

Neale recently returned from Italy after competing and winning the WPF Heavyweight Mr Universe Title against the best athletes from 11 other countries, including entrees from as far as South Africa & USA!
Neale has been competing for many years. His wins include The UKBFF Midlands Heavyweight Title in October 2010, British NAC Heavyweight Championship in November and finally reaching the pinnacle of the contests and winning the WPF Mr Universe.

This has been a great personal achievement for Neal who only a year ago was diagnosed with a fractured spine and 2 slipped discs! Not good news when training and preparing for so many competitions!
However after such a severe setback it only made him more determined to succeed.
Very similar to the life changing set back he experienced 6years ago when he was paralysed from a motorbike accident.

Neale says “I train to exhaustion 6 days a week, eat the correct diet to remain in shape all year round. Having won some major titles within BodyBuilding I’m still hungry for many more!”

It’s through his personal achievements, determination and knowledge that has made him one of the most influential presenters on The Active Channel.

Kevan has spent virtually his whole life keeping in shape and helping others to do the same. After playing various sports throughout his school years he took up amateur boxing at the age of 15 and after that moved on to weight training which he did as a very serious hobby whilst running a successful building business.

At the age of 50 he retired from work and decided that he could now at last do something that he wanted to do rather than something that he had to do. So he became a competitive bodybuilder and had a massively successful 5 years in which he won 9 major titles before opening his own gym Peak Physique & Fitness, in Hitchin, Herts.

Although he keeps himself in top condition at all times, ready for when he decides to go into competition again, he now mainly concentrates on helping other people achieve their dreams and ambitions and uses simple techniques to make that happen. Kevan says “I believe in keeping it basic - good diet and supplementation, hard but sensible training and a clean healthy lifestyle – it works!”
