How did you get started in bodybuilding/fitness?

When I was younger, I started because I want to arrive to my 30`s years old and look good…

What is your favorite body part to train?

Since I start to compete in Bikini division, I training in circuits of upper and lower body combine with interval cardio session, and one day specially for my glutes; the only part of my body I have a hard work is in my calves, this for turn on symmetric my legs.

I have a routine with this sequence:

Monday: Lower body

Wednesday: rest day

Thursday: lower body

Friday: upper body

Saturday: Glutes

Sunday: rest day

An example of my routine is:

Upper body: Back, biceps, triceps, shoulders and abs in 4 sets with 30 reps each with 5 minutes of interval cardio… don’t training chest, don’t like it, and I think is unnecessary for my situation.

At first I listen Katy Perry or kind like that, this at effect to saw the Arnold Classic and Mr. Olympia Bikini division and watch girls pose at stage with this type of music, but after I research and understand is better working out without music for do real mind-muscle connection.
