A trainee barrister who dropped out of university to become a bikini bodybuilder has hit back at cruel trolls criticising her looks and branding her 'The Hulk'.
Mel Wilkinson, 28, quit her law degree in a bid to make it as a professional bodybuilder following her first year at Birmingham City University.
She gave up her course and has since spent thousands on entering competitions across Britain and works out in the gym five days a week to get into pristine shape.
But after revealing her plans, Mel received a spate of hateful and misogynistic comments for the way she looks.
Mel has now hit back at online trolls making fun of her body saying the haters are not going to stop her and that she even found some of the comments hilarious.

00:00 Hi, my name's Mel. I was 18, I was in uni, planning to be a barrister. I kind of got
00:09 into the fitness industry. I wanted to do it on the side of my law degree. I became
00:15 so invested in my fitness journey that I actually ended up going towards the bodybuilding side
00:22 of things as a bikini competitor. The way my kind of life went with the fitness industry,
00:35 I decided that that was actually my true passion and I wanted to take that further as my career
00:42 rather than going into the law side of things. And here I am, nearly 10 years later, and
00:47 it's going really, really well and I can't imagine my life any other way.
