DOZENS of people flocked to Eastleigh to meet one of the strongest men in the world.

Residents had the chance to meet and train with Terry Hollands and IFBB pro bodybuilder and 2017 Arnold Fitness champion Kate Errington at Samson’s Gym earlier this month.

The duo answered questions and gave attendees advice about training, diet and nutrition.

Rebecca Dure, gym manager, said: "The event went really well. Everyone was very happy with it. Kate and Terry were really informative and gave us a lot of advice. It's always very important to receive advice from people like them. I want to particularly thank Julian Howard who trains at the gym and organised the event."

Terry Hollands come second in the England’s Strongest Man contest in 2005, and by 2007 he took the title of Britain’s Strongest Man.

He also consistently finishes in the top five rankings of the WSM contest, and in 2014 was ranked 5th Strongest in the world.

Meanwhile, Kate Errington started competing as an amateur in April 2014 when she was crowned Miss Hercules Olympia Bikini Champion and Miss Model Beauty Champion. Last year she also won the Overall Amateur Arnold's in Ohio, USA.

She said the gym is her second home and it is her passion to share her love for health and fitness with others.
