THREE generations of the same family brought out the big guns as they all grabbed Mr Universe gongs.
Grandad Terry Weiss, 65, won the over-65s category, his son Kyle, 37, got the Classic Athletic award and his son Ethan, 16, bagged the under-21s title.

The trio muscled out the competition in Italy this month, scooping nine gongs in all.
Kyle, of Barnsley, said: “We think this is a world first.
“I can’t believe what we’ve achieved.
“My feet still haven’t touched the ground.
“The hardest part was getting all the nine 20in trophies home.”
All three now qualify for Mr World in Rome in October.
Terry, who has won more than 90 titles including Mr Universe and Mr World, said: “I’m so glad I got to do that with the family.”
The trio followed a strict diet of lean meat, eggs and spinach before the contest but celebrated afterwards with a slice of pizza.
