Gold For Hawke’s Bay Bodybuilders

Hawke’s Bay husband and wife Greg Bigg and Sheryl Summers have returned from the United States with golden endorsements in bodybuilding that age doesn’t have to be a barrier to looking and feeling great. Bigg and Summers, personal trainers who operate Fitness Plus Hawke’s Bay from their home in Clive, won three gold medals between them as part of the eight-member New Zealand International Natural Body building team competing at the annual Natural Olympia event staged from November 10-12 in Las Vegas. “It was a surprise,” says Bigg who won his maiden gold medal in the 70-plus bodybuilding category in the couple’s third entry in the event. “You hope but you don’t expect it so it was a big thrill especially on a world stage to have your name called out first.” Photo: Kiwi team medal winners Jan Dixon (left), Jenni Bird, Rota Elliott, judge Peter Hardwick, Sheryl Summers, Greg Bigg and Brenda McDowell.  For more on this and other great Hawke’s Bay stories go to hawkesbaytoday.co.nz Posted: 24 November 2018
