UK WINS FIRST GOLD AT THE ARNOLD!

Nick Swann has won the UK's first gold medal at the 2018 Arnold Classic Europe.

Competing in masters bodybuilding 55 and over, Nick dominated a line-up with his outstanding shape and muscularity.

Nick’s front relaxed pose on stage in Spain today.

The Lincolnshire man immediately caught the eye when he came out with his extra size but it was lights out when he hit his rear poses, where his superior legs and glutes were evident.

Nick's lower body was in a league of its own, showing no evidence of the shrinkage that blights so many men of this age.

He was one of the first competitors on stage on day one at the event in Barcelona. Stay tuned for updates.
