Muscleman hopes to lift Mr Britain title

3:50pm Friday 12th November 2010 in News

BLACK Country bodybuilder Lee Willis is aiming for a shot at the First Timers Mr Britain title at a major muscleman tournament.

The 30-year-old from Stourbridge - who has only competed on stage once before - is tipped for success in the NABBA Allsports Novice Finals and British Youth Championships event taking place at Brierley Hill Civic Hall on Sunday November 21.

Lee, who has been spending every free minute pumping iron at Jim's Gym in Lye, is in "exceptional" condition and a future Mr Universe contender according to his coach Jim Charles - an international judge and show organiser.

Jim, who knew Arnold Schwarzenegger in his early days on the bodybuilding circuit, said: "Lee's got tremendous potential. “I'm hoping he's going to win but he's there will be 25 to 30 other guys on that stage with him and they're all going to be out to win it too."

The competition, which runs from 2pm to 6pm, will also include a guest spot by NABBA Britain Toned Figure winner Natalie Wood.

Tickets cost £15 and are available on 01384 892976.
