Personal Trainer, I have Graduation in Physical Education, with specialization in Physiology of the Exercise. What kind of activities/sports did you do before you started lifting weights?
I danced Ballet for more than 15 years...I was runner in the school too. How and when did you get involved into lifting weights?
When I was dancer I was very slim and I needed to gain more muscle size..I was 14 years when I started..but in the University, I started to train seriously...because I got to understand the trainning process... Was it a goal for you to compete in bodybuilding competitions right from the beginning or was it something that grew in your mind as time went on and you saw the progress in your body?
Yes...it grew in my mind....I already had a very good and density body before I start to compete..it was a consequense for me.. What was your first competition and how did you place?
It was a state contest here, and I won. And which contest has been the biggest success for you yet?
I think that won the University last year, the year I was in the second place..but i think that my body was better, the contest was harder than last year..(you can see some pics of my last contest in this link: http://www.lamuscle.com/docs/magazine/articles/view/252 Could you please add a history of all contests that you have entered so far?
