The Bachelor’s Locky Gilbert reveals his gruelling fitness routine

The Bachelor viewers gushed over how handsome Locklan ‘Locky’ Gilbert looked in a very fitted navy three-piece suit during the show’s premiere on Wednesday night.

And on Saturday, the 30-year-old reality star shared his gruelling fitness routine and the surprising way he’s been staying in shape while isolating at his home in Perth.

‘I usually go for 10km runs every second day and 40km mountain bike rides about three times a week. I find that it’s a really good way to clear your head and focus,’ he told The Sunday Telegraph.

He continued: ‘I absolutely love my mountain bike rides. I go up to Kalamunda, east of Perth, where there is a downhill mountain biking track, or near my house there is another 60km track.’

Locky went on to say that to keep fit and healthy, he’s been running around his home during lockdown.

‘I ran 10km around the house today. One lap is 700m, so I do around 14 laps,’ the 30-year-old said.

He also revealed he has been doing ‘intermittent fasting for around two years’ and he doesn’t eat from 6.30pm to until 12pm the next day.

Locky is currently searching for love on the eighth season of The Bachelor.

During Wednesday night’s premiere of the show, fans flocked to Twitter to gush over how handsome the 30-year-old reality star is. 

Locky looked dashing in a very fitted navy three-piece suit and viewers were quick to express their thoughts on his hunky look.

‘I just always go for the nerds haha but no complaints watching Locky, he’s definitely good to look at and he doesn’t seem like an idiot like some Bachelors,’ one wrote.

Another shared a gif of asthmatic suitress, Izzy Sharman-Firth, using her puffer with the caption: ‘Me when I saw Locky.’

‘Locky is so hot,’ another person agreed.

The Bachelor continues Wednesday at 7.30pm on Channel 10.
