Just don't call her a Weight Lifter......she didn't seem to like that! | ||

Member 1589, 1219 posts SQ 300, BP 260, DL 345905.0 kgs @ 108kgs Eq | I think I saw an interview with her saying she was aiming for 2016 olympics? then she pulled a van. I think she may have to take up weightlifting | ||

 Glorious spam Member 1563, 3961 posts SQ 180, BP 130, DL 260570.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | She was on day break a few weeks ago, interviewed her a bit then she tried to pull a van but failed to move it live on TV, felt a bit bad for her. she's a powerlifter by the look of it - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2083115/Bronwyn-Taylor... | ||

nothing to hide, please follow my life on webcam Member 255, 3732 posts | Post Edited: 11.02.2012 @ 17:11 PM by Steve It's great to see lifting getting some coverage, however it is also frustrating at how the media jump on the idea of a pretty girl lfting weights and declare her Britains Strongest Teenager without any real idea of how she compares.At the same age & 10kg lighter, Zoe Smith has snatched 20kg more than this girl squatted at the Commonwealths! | ||

Can still nail the snatch Member 168, 758 posts SQ 205, BP 90, DL 202.5497.5 kgs @ 74kgs UnEq | yes Is good to see lifting on primtime TV but she said she benched 50k at 16 we must have a lot more teenagers doing better than her like you said Zoe Smith I clean and jerked 92.5 at 14 years old why not have clegg CJ 150/160k on their would be more impressive esp with his speed technique etc. | ||

 Old Age Presser Member 75, 7740 posts SQ 0, BP 200, DL 200400.0 kgs @ 105kgs Eq | She benched 67.5 today at the British Bench and just failed to lock out 75, and she only tried a shirt for the first time 3 weeks ago. Remember, she only did her first comp last May and only turned 16 3 months ago. The girl's claiming nothing herself, she was 'christened' 'Scotland's Strongest Teenager' by a local paper, a national paper picked up on it and changed 'Scotland' to 'Britain', and hey ho, there we go... On Daybreak, the handbrake was left on by a dopey driver, she did it again a short while later and made it look easy. Reckon she'll have a 200+ lb bench by the time she leaves the sub juniors. Great coverage for the sport... | ||

Red Bull is banned in netball Member 799, 1484 posts | In my eyes, she can only do good for Strength Sports. She is driven, dedicated, strong and has a good goal, plus she is bonnie, intelligent and seems quite down to earth. Glad she did well at the comp. Hope she (and others) maybe get to show off their stuff at the likes of the Bodypower expo. | ||
