SHOPPERS turned out to test their strength against a true master in a £1,000 weightlifting challenge at The Chimes shopping centre in Uxbrudge.

Rajko Radovich, pictured left, from Flex Health and Fitness Club in Uxbridge, set the challenge to shoppers on Saturday at the front of Debenhams in The Chimes, but nobody managed to beat him to claim the £1,000. The fitness event also saw street dancing and kickboxing displays, with shoppers joining in the fun along the way. The displays were put on by members of Flex Health and Fitness Club to show the public what can be achieved by people wanting to improve their fitness.
