How did you get started with bodybuilding?
When I was 31 I changed jobs. I had more free time. I always wanted to compete in bodybuilding. But at age 31, I was able to start doing it.
What keeps you motivated?
The desire to prove to everyone that I was worth something.
What is your current workout routine?
2 months before the competition, I start my diet. I do 2 cardio sessions a day 5 times a week with strength training.
If you had to choose only 3 exercises, what would they be and why?
Smith machine squats, lat pulldowns, bench press with dumbbells.
Because they are the most powerful exercises to increase leg, back and shoulder muscles.
