What made you want to become a Gladiator?
"As a young athlete I felt like it was an opportunity to inspire young girls and make them think, 'oh, I can go to the gym, I can train and be just as strong'. I've done sport all my life, so I felt like it was giving me an opportunity to showcase my sporting talents and hopefully inspire others too."
How would you describe Dynamite?
"Dynamite is small but mighty. She's the one that might be underestimated, because she doesn't look very scary and is naturally quite shy, but don't let that fool you, when she's in a game, she's going to win."
Gladiators begins Saturday, January 13 at 5.50pm on BBC One and iPlayer.
