I was a regular 19 year old student who had a gym membership and exercised now and then. One day, I entered the free weights area and a Mexican professional bodybuilder offered to help me out with my training. We sat down, he gave me a diet and the rest is history... Antonio and I´ve been together for over 5 years now. For a couple of years I went to his competitions with him but never flirted with the idea of actually stepping on stage. At those shows, he was the star and I was only the cute, chubby girl who would apply oil to her muscular boyfriend.
One day I saw a Musclemania poster for the Mexico show (Nov 2005). Antonio asked me if I wanted to give it a try. I hesitated: I had a good 15 extra pounds and I wasn't sure I had what it took to compete with those girls I had seen on stage; they looked perfect to me. I looked at him and said: "Are you kidding me?" He said: "Oh no! You can do it!”. I immediately said: "OK!", grabbed a piece of paper and a pen and asked him to write down the plan. In 12 weeks I was ready, It was a real challenge for me because it was my first contest preparation; I had the days counted and there was no time for mistakes! I took 2nd place in the contest and I WAS SOOO HOOKED....
Why I Love It:
Because I love testing my ability to change and transform myself. I love this sport because it doesn’t have room for excuses, you do what you have to do or you don´t get to your goal.
Knowing that If I keep the hard work, I will look better on each of my following competition gets me very excited.
Every contest preparation is tough, and is a fact that you think of quitting more than once, so, stepping on stage is one of the best feelings of accomplishment ever.
How I Stay Motivated:
Is definetely not easy to stay motivated. Sometimes I remember how amazing if feels to win, and that lifts my spirit... some other times I remember what it feels to lose and something starts burning inside... victory´s honey is waaaaay too sweet.
BB Accomplishments:
Overall Miss Bikini Mexico, Overall Miss Bikini Latina and two Top 10 @ Miss Bikini Universe.
