SEASONED body-builder Godwin Simba Mhaka has arrived in Chicago, United States, ahead of this weekend’s World Fitness Federation Mr Universe set for Las Vegas.
The event is set for tomorrow and Sunday. The hulk trains at Total Fitness Gym at the Long Cheng Plaza in Harare.
He is set to defend his title in the Warrior Fitness World Fitness Championship, which he won in Berlin, Germany, last year. Mhaka, whose main category is the Senior Men Bermuda, in which he came second last year, is confident of doing well again this year.
Affectionately known as “GS” in the fitness industry, Mhaka said he was ready to fight for gold.
“The preparations went on well and I am looking forward to the contest. I had some little challenges in terms of dieting but I managed to do my best.
“So, far I am 100 percent and I will try hard to improve by conditioning.
“But, I still feel there is a lot that needs to be done, if I’m to go there and win gold.
“Last year, I competed and came first in the Warrior Fitness category and second in Bermuda and I am looking forward to repeating the same success this year.
“I am looking forward to winning gold in my main category Bermuda, then another gold in the Warrior Fitness, and that will be a great achievement because we will have top athletes from around the world,” said Mhaka.
“The Kwekwe-born bodybuilder added:
“I had to be extremely prepared, more than what I was in the last competition and I’m positive that I am going to give it my best shot.
“I’m going to win gold and make my country proud.
“Resources have been a big challenge.
“Total Fitness Gym has been sponsoring me ahead of this prestigious contest and I’m very grateful to them although they cannot cover everything.”
