Susana Rodriguez
Susana Rodriguez is a Nutritionist and Fitness athlete from Brazil. Susana fell in love for fitness competitions in 2015 – claiming 11th place in the bikini class.
From there, she kept learning about training and nutrition and improving herself. After years of hard work, Susana made a leap from a bikini to a fitness category.
This decision led her to win her first Mr. Olympia and Arnold Classic Amateur titles in Brazil. Ever since then, Susana has become an inspiration for her ever-growing army of fans on Social media, who admire her amazing physique and unique personality.
Training
Like some athletes, Susana too enjoys mixing her workouts up.
She regularly switches between heavy Workout days, moderate days and light days.
Susana is also a big fan of supersets, tri-sets, and Drop sets. These allow her to get more training done in a short space of time, along with keeping the intensity high.
When she’s not competing, Susana trains 4-6 days per week.
She’ll sometimes lift weights twice per day to maximize results.
When she prepares for a show or another important event, Susana will increase her Training intensity even further – adding cardio to her regimen.
Susana enjoys having her cardio and Weightlifting as separate Workout s, leaving three days a week to build her stamina and conditioning.
She tries to have at least one rest day per week to fully recuperate from her hard training.[4]
