Powerlifter who took up sport in lockdown is British junior champion

Harriet Waite, 21, from Kettering, won her category with a record-breaking performance

Harriet Waite was one of thousands of people to scramble to buy gym equipment during lockdown in a bid to fill the days, and soon began lifting weights in her makeshift garage gym.

But while the passion fizzled out for many, Waite continued with her hobby and has just become a British junior champion in a record-breaking competition performance.
