Robert Leat Sundried Ambassador

Robert comes from an athletics background, but once he got hooked on weight-training he left his running days behind him. He tells Sundried about how he stays motivated and his goals for the future.


My sporting background is as a middle-distance track and field athlete


I used to be much more into athletics, but once I started using the gym I got more into weight lifting and became less interested in running.

What are your training goals now?

Due to being a cross-country runner I’ve always been very skinny. My goal now is muscle gain and increasing my strength, I currently weigh about 64 kg my goal weight is to be 70kg.

Tell us one unusual fact we wouldn’t know about you:

I have written a book about how professionals can burn fat.


Be more consistent with your training.


I don’t follow a specific nutrition plan currently I just use the 80/20 rule of 80% healthy food 20% rubbish.


I keep in contact with my clients on a regular basis and they are all added into a Facebook group which is updated regularly. My top tip for staying motivated would be to set goals.

Talk us through your training regime.

I train 3-4 times a week and I use a body part split where I train a different body part in each workout.

How do you keep your fitness knowledge up to date?

I follow the industry leaders on social media, I also work closely with a few mentors and I try to set aside time each day for self-development.
