Nick Wehry
World #4 Competitive Eater
Calves, Delts and Patty Melts…
Named Major League Eatings “Fastest Rising Star” by emcee George Shea, Nick stormed onto the professional competitive eating scene in 2017. Nick’s debut performance at the White Hut World Cheesburg Eating Championship was head-turning, not just because he placed behind just four world class competitors (including Joey Chestnut), but also because he was competing for fun, without preparation, and mere weeks after competing in bodybuilding’s NPC Garden States.
Wehry followed this commanding performance with one of the highest qualifier totals for Nathan’s, as well as a Top 10 finish in Coney Island in his first year at the Final’s Table. He’s followed this with two 3rd and most recently a 4th place performance at the Nathan’s table to go along with a short form hard boiled egg eating record. In 2023 Nick notched a victory and new world record at the Get Crackin’ Wonderful Pistachios Eating Championship with 188 in 8 minutes followed the next week with a second victory with 173 chicken wings in 10 minutes at the Wings For Wishes Wing Eating Championship!
Many marvel at Nick’s physique, but he simply claims to be maintaining his “dadbod leftovers” from his competitive days!

Food Challenges
Nick loves a good food challenge.
Putting away 14 pounds of pie in front of an audience isn’t for everyone… but for Nick Wehry, it’s all in a Day’s Work!
Nick especially enjoys working with growing restaurants to develop and host food challenge promotions — including the crowd interaction and social media engagement that accompany a well-organized promotion. Whether solo or with Miki as his teammate, Nick relishes the opportunity to generate recurring business for restaurants by developing, demonstrating, and demolishing some of the largest, most delicious, and unique challenges around!

From FOOD to FUEL
Not your average ‘dad bod.’
One look at Nick, and you probably wouldn’t guess that he’s father of two or a competitive eater. While Nick’s bodybuilding days are behind him (for now), he maintains a passion for training and still trains 5-6 days per week to balance the caloric craziness and maintain his “Calves, Delts and Patty Melts” life-balance philosophy . The only things Nick takes more seriously than his fitness are eating, and being the best dad and significant other he can be.
Nick continues to help others reach their fitness and wellness goals through diet, training, and lifestyle coaching, as well as contest prep and posing coaching for competitors.
