I’m Ben Carlisle, a former footballer turned full-time bodybuilder and coach. Sport has been a big part of my life from a young age, I played rugby, cricket, karate, and football, which quickly became my main passion. Even though I didn’t go on to have a professional career in sport, it taught me the value of discipline, hard work, and constantly pushing to be better.
That mindset led me to bodybuilding, where showing up consistently and striving for progress became a way of life. I fell in love with the gym culture and the personal growth that comes with it.
Now, I specialise in muscle building, nutrition, and mindset. I work closely with every client to create a personalised plan that fits their goals and lifestyle. Whether it's busy professionals, dads, athletes, or everyday guys ready to step up, I coach men who want real, lasting change.
Through Physique Academy, I now get to help people around the world transform both physically and mentally and there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing that happen.
