The CEO, Mr. Cor Jansen van Rensburg, an MBA-graduate who is based in London, said that the company is looking for a candidate who does not only possess beauty on the outside, but also from within. A gay man of impeccable character, taste and style – and of course – a temple of a body to house these admirable qualities.

"We need to celebrate the gay man in South Africa. We need to find a winner to represent us in the rest of the world. We need to find the man the entire gay community can look up to, support and love for the year of his reign - we have the systems in place and we are ready to take on the challenge to make the LGBTI community in SA proud."

"The idea is not only to find the most gorgeous boy in the land – we will look after him mentally, physically and emotionally – but also groom him from top to toe during his reign.

He will have the best there is to offer in SA – and in return – he will have to bring the best he can to the table as well."





 

Candidates who want to enter, can do so online. The first three regional finalists for the Eastern Cape were chosen during the Pink Loerie Mardi Gras. The three outstanding candidates, Chris Macgregor, Tyrone Nell and Leo Jan De Beer, qualified for the final by virtue of their achievement in Mr Mardi Gras. The rest of the regional competitions will be announced soon – keep an eye on the website!

Our vote is  for  Tyrone!   We met him through  PrideBook about a year ago and think he is just fantastic! Being a photographer of male models, I was taken by his handsome looks. And after chatting with him, also his charm.  He even blogs about staying in shape!  So you can pick up some training tips from him!

You need to push heavy weights, you need to push weights your body is not use to pushing, if you are pushing weights with ease, then it is not working. You need to overload.

Your body will then start to adapt and will increase its strength to accommodate the weight, then also allowing you to break down the muscle more so that you can build more. Basically you give the body a workout it is not use to and it will respond with increase in strength.

Chest, Back and legs release the maximum amount of testosterone which is an anabolic hormone.
