No modelling contract, nevertheless a role in the mark your spot Calvin Klein commercial

Unfortunately it is not the Netherlands who will be going home with the modellingcontract and the trip to south-Africa. England is the country with the most votes. Nevertheless, for a small country as the Netherlands we did a great job and left several large countries behind us! However the people chose England, Chiel will not be going home emptyhanded. Calvin klein asked him to perform in the mark your spot commercial. With this he is the only one from the 9 finalists who is asked for the mark your spot line. This will be an extra boost for his modellingcarreer. Of course this is a great opportunity for chiel and shows again that the Netherlands performed great! Thanks again everyone for the voting, promotion and the great support I have had!

This power-train and tips from Calvin Klein underwear model Chiel Konings.

He was Holland's pride in the European model contest 9Countries9Men. Chiel Konings (1989, chielkonings.nl) won, but Calvin Klein New York chose him and his athletic body or from its new campaign: the Mark Your Spot underwear line. With a body like that of Chiel win again so what, and his tips are therefore useful for the Men's Health Cover Model Contest.

Train
Chiel reads Men's Health since he was five tenths and also started around that age training. "In the beginning, I really mass. Now I have an athletic figure that I like to perfect. I train now about 4 or 5 times a week. Meanwhile I had it all complicated schemes, but after a while I returned to the basic exercises. "The young underwear model trains his entire body with simple exercises and free weights.

"All in all I do about three quarters strength and cardio half hours each time. I think my legs so important to train, but I really uneven attention to. "In addition to sweating in the gym is the new Calvin Klein posterboy also hard when the weather is there. "Then I walk to the gym for example, go train and then run back."

Motivation
"Sports makes me feel good and more energy. Meanwhile make my training also just part of my rhythm. "Motivation Problems Chiel not know. "Well, there are periods where you just want to make something harder than usual. When I got the message from Calvin Klein For example, I went like a train. "The Cover Model Contest to motivate, thinks the young model. "You can come to your neighborhood or the pretty boy, but that the other participants in their neighborhood. Even if you are between them responsible, you should jump out. That seems a good motivation. "

Already, the peanut butter from your nose ...
Exercising only save you not. "When I started training I have the book" The washboard diet 'read. That is my base now and that's it so far. "Chiel eat six times a day and a meal, 'though, the occasional peanut butter off my nose, most tips in the book are tasty and healthy." To powders shakes and he does not. "Everything I need I get from my diet. I eat exactly as described in the book and like it well, so I recommend everyone to read it and adapt your life. "In the book are in the underwear model good start exercises. For when your body still want to work or something, "a good basis for the competition next year!"

First one
Voice: Chiel Konings, in daily life he helps as an assistent of fashionking Addy van den Krommenacker to get women in clothes. For his own career he needs to get out of his clothes.
Chiel: My girlfriend posted a photo at the website www.9countries9men.com at the last day you could sign in. Really lucky that this picture could join. And then, two days later, they ringed/phoned me and told me I had to show a few more pictures.
And then, three days later I was in London. So it all happened really fast.
Interviewer: Does she regrets (girlfriend) because now she has to share you with many people?
Chiel: Yes, but lucky enough she didn't say she regrets, haha. I'm very grateful.
Voice: 9 beautiful men from 9 countries. Chiel is one of them. They struggle/fight (?) to become the new face of Calvin Klein, or else said: the new body.
Chiel: Off course it's only about the underwear.
Interviewer: Oooh about the underpants?
Chiel: Yes.
Voice: Offcourse Chiel.. But we think it's really about your body.
Interviewer: You've to work hard for it don't you?
Chiel: Yes I work hard for it. Let's say.. euh.. I train really hard for it.
*atthegym*
Chiel: Yeah I think it is important to have an atlethic body. Not too much mass, just watch your nutrition/food. Just living healthy, that's most important.
Interviewer: Yes, because you almost have nothing to hide. (~what does he mean?~)
Chiel: No, no almost not. (rarely?)
Voice: Also Chiel's mom is proud of him. Although... 'so much' nude...
Chiel: Yeah of course my mother likes this all, it's just euh.. of course she would appreciate some clothes. laughing
Voice: But it stays only an underpants. Coming month, Chiel goes together with his competition (8 other guys), on tour through Europe. Goal: to win as much internetvoters as possible.
Chiel: Yeah, I'll hang/be seen (billboards?) all over the world if I win. I hope everyone is going to vote at www.9countries9men and then, of course, vote for me. That would be tremendous of course.
Voice: And of course we will a lend/help to such a beautiful boy.

I hope you understand my english. I see the sentences don't look very well so I hope I didn't make huge mistakes. Chiel used so many times 'of course' and 'euhm' I cut a few.
And something else I need to say: the 'voice' used some sarcasm.

Maybe I'll translate the other parts this evening but not sure.

 

[Flashbang]

Yes, I understand it already, thank you!

 

[Festat]

Thanks! :Ð

 

[Marjon]

welcome!
I'll do the other ones today! (at least 1)

Second video
Male presentator: Addy van den Krommenacker, he has an assistent. He (Chiel) almost does everything for him. He has to share/spread his time though. It seems like he'll be conquered by the huge fashionlabels.
Female presentator: That still must be proved (idk, but something like wait until results). There is a competition going on for Calvin Klein. And if you'll be on a billboard for CK, I think Addy seriously needs to keep in mind that Chiel can't serve as his p.a. anymore. We'll take a look to what Addy has to say.
Voice: The assistent of fashionking Addy seems to have more than this. Maybe we can see our Chiel in bedroomoutfit through the whole country.
Chiel: Addy encouraged me and then I really started to go to castings. Yeah.. then you go for it. And the passion of being on a large billboard is there. And if possible, of course for Calvin Klein.
Voice: As a coming up talent, halfnude model, he knows fashion industry.
Chiel: I didn't know much about Dutch glamour. I didn't even know who Connie Breukhoven is.
Addy: *Laughing* No he had never heard of her, no..
Chiel: So, I've got a short course from Addy, he told me all about it.
Addy: He just understands me. I just have to give a small sign like: oh look there's still a model standing over there who needs some help, or I'd like a coffee. He notices very fast.
Voice: With his trousers/pants on his knees he gets 'hands on each other'/things done? (I'm sorry this sounds weird but I don't know the right translation).
The competition is hard, very hard.
Addy: I remember the large billboards with Marky Mark and he became a real celebrity thanks to the CK campaign. Chiel started to go to the gym when he was 16 and we train a lot together. He just has a nice developed body. He's a good guy for CK.
Voice: If Chiel really gets his break-through, Addy doesn't has to advertise immediatly.
Chiel: It would be nice if it's just besides it. Sometimes nice traveling and nice jobs. But I really want to stay with Addy.
Female presentator: Yes, of course he says really nice for Addy that he want to do it besides. But if he wins and makes it to a CK billboard then it will become serious
Male presentator: But isn't it possible to just take the picture and then they'll have it, right?
Female presentator: Then it just really begins. The winner gets offered a contract with a big/great modellingagency in London and a trip to South-Africa. He competes with 8 men. Number 1 is, if I'm right, from England. Not really surprising. I have to say that I don't think his haircut is great...
Guy in the middle: No....
Female presentator: Currently Chiel is in third place and in the end of April we'll know more.
