Is Matty J trying to be the new Tim Robards?

His lengthy hunt for love has come to a end after falling for Laura Byrne on The Bachelor.

Now it seems smitten Matty J has found something else to do with all his spare time, and it looks kinda familiar...

The marketing exec is currently sunning himself in Bali with his jewellery designer girlfriend, where he took to Instagram to share a video of his impressive workout skills.

"Fun little sesh this morning," he wrote. "Those few years of gymnastics as a grom really paying off!"

Is it just us, or is Matty J using his predecessor Tim Robards for ideas on where to go next?

In the short clip, a topless Matty can be seen holding himself in a perfect L-sit before he seamlessly inverts into a handstand.

Then in a serious OMG move, he walks whilst upside down, showing us exactly how he sculpted those Insta-worthy abs, before tackling some battle ropes and finishing with a backflip.

Tim Robards has carefully crafted himself a fitness career since appearing on the first season of The Bachelor in 2013 and regularly posts similar videos of himself doing extraordinary workouts.

But that's not the only resemblance between the two buff former bachelors.

Matty J has just been unveiled as the cover model on the Australian Fitness First Magazine, an honour that has previously been bestowed on Tim, who posed alongside his now fiancée Anna Heinrich.

Last week the heartthrob was also seen attending the Caulifield Cup and so were Tim and Anna, with the boys wearing similar shades of blue.

With their identical launchpads into fame, it's no surprise really that Matty might look up to Tim.

Perhaps a collaboration may be on the cards for the two fitness fanatics?

All of the abs. We're just saying.
