“It was always his dream to stand on stage one day, no matter where he placed that didn’t matter and now his dream came true,” said proud mum, Jenny Shepherd.

Chad placed third in the juniors category of 19-23 year-olds under 75kgs.

He is thankful for being under the wing and guidance of Intense Gym in Umkomaas and is grateful to have been coached by his role model and body-building champion, Julian-lee Ramdhari.
