Georgina McConnell, Strong Fitness Bodybuilding Girl
|
Georgina McConnell is to compete at the British Championships. The Houghton-le-Spring teenager says reaction to her muscles is mixed. She hopes to become a pro bodybuilder like her friend Anth 'The Freak' Bailes. With her bulging muscles and intense fitness regime, Georgina McConnell isn't your average teenager. The 19-year-old is a bodybuilder and has swapped mooning over One Direction for six meals a day, five workouts a week and an impressive 10st 3lb physique. And it would appear that the teenager's dedication has paid off, after she took home a gold medal in the UKBFF (UK Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation) North East Championships this summer.
"I was about 17 when I decided I wanted to take up bodybuilding properly, although I was already quite stacked by then. I knew it was an unusual thing for a girl my age to want to do - most girls want to be thin and dainty - but I really love it.", the teen, who is a statuesque 5ft 7in tall, revealed that her powerful frame had divided opinions among her friends, family and the opposite sex.
"My parents and friends are really proud of me and think I look great, but my brother is the total opposite - he doesn’t get the whole bodybuilding thing at all. I don’t have a boyfriend at the moment, but I don’t think my unusual hobby will put all boys off. Yes, some are a bit intimidated by my muscles, but others like them - I think it’s an acquired taste."
