Bambi, as she is affectionately called has begun training with the Athletes Brigade of the Ghana Armwrestling Federation (GAF) and will make her maiden appearance at the Africa Armwrestling Championship to be held later this month.
When www.armwrestlingghana.com visited one of her training sessions, she said “armwrestling is an interesting sport which is easy play and less expensive.”
She added that armwrestling is an endurance sport and given her background in bodybuilding, she would love to do a dual sport considering armwrestling.
