My journey
How I got here
As the years passed, I turned into professional volleyball at the age of 16, already living in the State of São Paulo, where I would spend another 7 years playing in different clubs and gathering all the possible titles of all the championships I played. Back in 2009 was when my international adventures started, having traveled to play in Saudi Arabia, Spain, Lebanon, Belgium, France and at last, Estonia.
Already back in 2008 I started studying about all the subjects involved in this matter (anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, kinesiology, etc), acquiring many different certifications from different countries, having a total of over 20 of them nowadays.
Discipline, determination and hard work: Discipline to do what has to be done, when it has to be done whether you like it or not. Determination to set an objective and not stop pursuing it for any reason. And Hard Work, because the only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary. Those are the values I want to share with YOU, and be part of your journey, sharing amazing moments only the weights can offer. I’m sure if you come to the gym with an open mind, a whole new world will open before your eyes!
I am specialist in strength, hypertrophy, fat loss, knee injuries and disc herniations. I’m mainly focused in self-improvement through studies and my own training as well, and the thing I care the most about in my trainees is responsibility and accountability with their health and trainings. So if you are someone looking forward to improve yourself, and taking the process seriously, I’m waiting for YOU!!!
