Bodybuilding is a sport that imposes several restrictions on its practitioners. To take the stage and present their best versions, athletes need to follow caloric deficit diets for months and maintain intense bodybuilding training as well as aerobic exercises. In the week before the championship, they also undergo sodium and water control, which makes their bodies have extremely low fat and liquids in the hypodermis, a layer that is located between the skin and the muscles.
Interviewed by Folha de S. Paulo’s Blog Musculo, all the Overall champions of the MuscleContest Brazil 2025 (ie, all bodybuilders who professionalized at the event), which took place last weekend in Curitiba (PR), exposed their post-campeonate desires.
See photos of all the athletes who professionalized at the MuscleContest Brazil 2025:
While Sarah Malta and Marcos Antonio, from the Bikini and Classic Physique categories, respectively, answered “Mother Food,” Men’s Physique Marcos Ferreira winner followed the same line, but with one detail: “Homemade food, but first I want fruits and ice cream.”
Gabi Bomfim, who became the second professional fit model of all over the country, anticipated and cooked Strogonoff – a dish she would eat after the event – on the eve of the competition. Wellington Santos, from Bodybuilding, revealed the desire of the basics: “Rice and beans, accompanied by that barbecue we like.” New Wellness professional, Valéria Bodanese also expressed the desire for barbecue, but only after eating “apple and carrot”.
Beatriz Almeida, from Figure, made the request that would probably be agreed by fans if they needed to guess. After the show, the professional bodybuilder wanted “cookies” and pizza.
The most specific account of all was Fernanda Centaura, who was professionalized by Women’s Physique, but wants to migrate to Women’s Bodybuilding throughout his career in the IFBB (International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness): “Bread with four slices of mozzarella cheese and tricky peanut butter.”
In addition to amateur and professional bodybuilding championships, MuscleContest Brazil also featured a “living stage”, where athletes such as Ramon Dino, Derek Lunsford, Terrence Ruffin and others trained alongside fans. Check it out:
