A former scrawny teenager has triumphed over vile bullies - by becoming a triple bodybuilding champion.
Adam Badat, 27, joined a gym aged 16 and was laughed at as he attempted to fulfill his dream of wanting to be on the cover of Men's Fitness magazine.
He was made the butt of several jokes about his lanky body shape - standing at 6'2'' and weighing just nine stone.
Super-toned Adam says his anxiety was hit hard after bullies mocked him and said, 'There's more meat on a sparrow's knee cap'.
