DURBAN’S SHANNON CORNELL IS A DROP- DEAD KNOCKOUT ON STAGE, IN THE GYM AND WELL, JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE. Not only is she one of South Africa’s hottest fitness bikini babes, gifted with a dream body and sparkling personality, but she likes the challenge, the grit and the glamour of the competitive stage.
Here, on these pages, she turns it on for the camera as our latest Muscle Evolution Babe.
In a nutshell tell us a little bit about yourself? Who is Shannon Cornell?
Which personality would you like to get to know? I am a social person who likes having fun. I have a closely knit group of friends and I am extremely loyal to those who appreciate and support me. I always try and see the good in others but that can at times be a weakness. Although I am always running late I don’t take things too seriously. I always stay true to myself and my style while also pushing myself to be a better person.
Have you always been an active person? What sparked your interest in the fitness industry?
I was an avid swimmer at school but found my love for the fitness industry once I had left school and started working. An old friend of mine encouraged me to compete and I started in 2012.
Describe what type of person you are in one word?
Loyal.
What do you do for a living and do you enjoy it?
I am currently distributing South Africa's most innovative topical fat burning gel called Sculpt and the L-Carnitine injectable called Carnaject, one of the secrets to staying in shape all year round. I love what I do as it gives me time to prep for shows as well as allowing me to work from home.
Run us through your training.
I train four times a week using workouts that target legs, glutes, back and shoulders. I also include calisthenics which are basically exercises consisting of a variety of movements to increase body strength, fitness and flexibility. Cardio in the off-season consists of three 30-minute sessions.
