In competition I love the dieting, I love to take my body to de edge, and that makes me feel so good, I don't know why, but the harder the dieting and training gets for me thats like heaven.
Offseason is to easy, thats why I train so hard in offseason so i can take my body almost to pass out. I am a machine jajjaajajjajajaj

Please tell me about what you do when you don’t work out (hobbies, what do you do to relax?, etc.)
I love the beach, here in Panama we have beautiful places. Dinner, I love to go out for dinner, Ii guess to eat something different jajjajjajajaaj
What do you enjoy most about the bodybuilding/fitness lifestyle?
That is the only way to slow down aging. Is preventive medicine and also strength you body and your mind. Training is the only way to go, if you want to feel good and look good.
Bodybuilding is the best activity to keep you body on the top shape of you life, the reason why is because bodybuilding train every single muscle in the body individually. Is not an overall maintenance; we take care of every part with detail. Make every muscle of our body as strong it can get, is the best. People dont really know de benefits from bodybuilding. Keep every muscle flexible, etc...
Tell me something interesting about yourself, something people may be surprised to hear.
Well I was for 3 year in the middle east flying DC-8. Is an aircrafts as big as an airbus but not with passenger. I was flying to Bagdad, Afghanistan, all the warzone in the middle east. But I can not talk to much about it.
What are your competition goals or personal future goals?
My goal is to be really big but keeping a pretty feminine face. Is a combination of pure power and femininity. I know is hard to achieve that in this sport.
About competition when my teamwork think that I am ready, then I will compete.
