Become A Fitness Star!
Women's Fitness|February 2017

WF chatted to Fit Factor 2016 winner Bethany Rowe to find out what it takes to win the coveted BodyPower Expo competition

Become A Fitness Star!

The last six months have been a busy time for Bethany following her Fit Factor win at last year’s BodyPower Expo at Birmingham NEC. Her Victory marked the beginning of her fitness career, so where did she go from here?

Why did you enter the competition?

I entered the competition for a few reasons: to give myself more confidence; to give myself a purpose for my training; and I also wanted the challenge. I love to challenge myself and set myself goals, and to have something to show for the hard work that I put into my training and lifestyle.

How did you feel when you won?
