Local bodybuilder, Diana Loock recently received an invitation to compete at this annual global festival.
Bodybuilding, wrestling, modeling, martial arts, break dancing, fencing and even arm wrestling are just a handful of the 50 events set to take Columbus, Ohio by storm next year at the Arnold Sports Festival.
She will also be in action at the Arnold Classic Africa which will take place at the Sandton Convention Centre, Johannesburg next year.

“It still feels like a dream. I cannot believe what I have achieved in only nine months. Normally it takes athletes years and years of training to get this far and I managed to do it in less than a year,” Loock said.
Her online personal trainer, World Beauty Fitness and Fashion (WBFF) pro, Annelize Dohne, convinced her to be part of the Born To Dominate Sponsored Athlete team. “There was no way I was going to let an opportunity like this slip through my fingers,” Loock said with a smile.

During the International Federation of Bodybuilding’s provincial competition in Secunda, she was awarded second place in the beach-bikini category.
“I was part of the team that represented Mpumalanga at the South African championships where I also took home a silver medal. I am truly blessed and I can honestly say that hard work pays off.”
