Muscle mum Blanka Harvey became a UK champion bodybuilder just three years after joining a gym. And later this month, she will compete against bodybuilders from across the globe at the World Natural Bodybuilding Federation (WNBF) Championships.
It's a far cry from her previous unhealthy lifestyle when she loved tucking into McDonald's takeaways, doughnuts and chocolate. Following the birth of her two children, Blanka Harvey piled on the pounds.
After reaching 13 stone and feeling unhealthy and unhappy, she decided to join a gym. And within a matter of months, Blanka had become a qualified fitness instructor and Zumba teacher.
