Charlene Harvey from Malmesbury has picked up three trophies in her first bodybuilding competition.
Mum of two Charlene, 35, has been training and dieting for just nine months to prepare for the Pure Elite event in Manchester where she was placed in three categories: Fitness Model (second), Muscle Model (second) and Mums That Lift (third).
Charlene was given lessons on how to present herself on stage and extra gym coaching by Emma Brace, a female body builder and personal trainer from Cheltenham.
She has now entered the Miami Pro European Championships at the Alban Arena in Herts on July 5 and hopes to qualify for the Pure Elite World Championships at the Winter Gardens in Margate on November 25.
