A TEENAGER claims he is well on his way to becoming the UK’s version of Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Beefy Brad Willis is only 17 — but after just 11 months of bodybuilding training he is already Mr Britain and tips the scales at more than 95 kilos.

Now, the teenager from Sunderland, UK is eyeing a tilt at the Mr Universe famously won by Arnie four times.
And Willis only began his incredible transformation in May last year after popping down to the gym with his mates.
He told the Newcastle Evening Chronicle: “Initially I went to the gym just to do general training.

“I went to watch a friend in a bodybuilding competition though and really enjoyed it and thought it was something I’d like to do.
“So I thought ‘why not?’, and I gave it a go.â€
Willis now needs to eat six meals a day to maintain his hulking 100kg frame.
And to keep himself in tiptop condition he needs to do 45 minutes of cardio before he even begins his punishing weights routine.

When in competition he wears fake tan to make sure his hard-earned gym work appears as defined as possible.
That torturous routine could see him qualify for the elite Mr Universe contest this October.

Hollywood star and politician Arnie won the competition for the first time aged 20 — like Brad, just a few years after taking up the sport.
