Tyler Ten Was Nervous Baring His Bod Next To Physical:100’s Amotti, Then Saw The Pics & Thought He Looked “Quite Good”

We didn’t think anyone could make Mediacorp’s resident hunk Tyler Ten feel self-conscious about his body...

C’mon, who can forget those topless scenes in Emerald Hill?

That is, until he met Physical: 100 Season Two winner Amotti.

The 29-year-old actor was at a camping resort on Jeju Island for three days last week, shooting content for fashion brand Ralph Lauren alongside personalities from Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines.

In an interview on the phone with 8days.sg, Tyler recalls that they were informed that the workout would be conducted by a very good trainer who was "very fierce and fit”.

“While I was thinking who it could be, Ben (Benjamin Kheng), who was also on the trip, joked that it was probably Amotti,” says Tyler.

“I even laughed it off and said, “Cannot be lah!”

Tyler says that when he next turned his head, he saw Amotti, dressed in a white top, approaching them.

“I went, “Oh sh*t! It is him!” and started freaking out."

Tyler is a self-confessed Physical:100 fan and says he has followed Amotti since the first episode and has always admired his dedication and discipline towards working out.

“I was star struck and remember having goosebumps all over my body,” says Tyler, who describes Amotti as “tall, masculine, and very good-looking. My ideal body type”.

And that is saying something considering Tyler towers over most at 1.9 metres and is known as one of the fittest local actors.

Tyler also lets us in that he initially felt insecure when he took off his top for a picture with the fitness star.

“I mean, this is Amotti, right? But when I saw the pictures, I thought he looked quite good beside him,” he laughs.

Tyler also says that compared to Amotti, he personally had lots to improve on his physique, especially his shoulders and back.

The fanboying didn’t stop there and Tyler says it motivated him to stay super focused throughout the workout.

“I gave it my all just so he would notice me. Thankfully, he was really encouraging and even praised my form and stamina,” laughs Tyler, who adds that the HIIT workout was less brutal than expected.

Well, Ralph Lauren probably needed you guys to stay in one piece for the rest of the trip, right?

While the two hunks didn’t get to chat about their diets, Tyler says he managed to grill Amotti on his fitness routine and how often he works out.

According to Tyler, Amotti trains twice a day and is currently prepping to compete in a doubles event at a Hyrox race in October.

He even invited Tyler to drop by his gym, Sweat & Soul, the next time he is in South Korea.

So has the Physical: 100 star inspired our very own Tyler to sign up for a Hyrox race at this point?

“Maybe? But I definitely need to find a partner first. If I do solo, I will die!” he laughs.
