While I’m definitely not finished on my lifting journey, I think it’s important to acknowledge how far I’ve come with the help and support of, not only my family, but Callum too.
I have competed six times in two years, including a national competition. And the best thing? I’m not doing it on my own!
There is a team of lifters who are competing too. An army of girls who are proud to be strong women and show that strength is not just functional but sexy too.
CJB STRONG stands for being different, but a good different, proving that not everyone has to conform to a stereotype. No matter your shape, size or ability you can achieve anything with the right people around you.
Don’t limit yourself with what you think you can’t do, get in the gym and prove yourself wrong!
