5 Male Athletes Who Are Also into Modelling
Athletes or sports stars are not only at their best on the field as they run behind a ball or wrestle their way to glory, but also completely amazing when it comes to body care and fitness. Their healthy diets and the copious amount of working out they do enables them to get smashing bodies that are the stuff of dreams for runways and photographers. This has led to so many athletes who endorse brands, do product placements, and advertisements into taking up modelling as well now and then.
Modelling is also lucrative as an industry for a lot of sports persons once they are through with their professional stance in their sport and their heyday is over. This helps them stay in contact with their fans, build a public image based on health, fitness and advertisements and keep being relevant. Sometimes, they also model for a cause!
