What happens when a professional bodybuilder takes a two-year break only to return stronger than ever? Join us as we highlight the inspiring Bruno Santos, who recently clinched his first ProWin and secured a formidable second-place finish in Reno. Bruno shares the secrets behind his transformative conditioning strategy that led him to outshine some of the industry's top athletes. He opens up about the relentless preparation, from a strict diet of just tilapia to navigating the challenges of competing across different countries and time zones. This episode is a powerful testament to Bruno's indomitable spirit and his unwavering focus on making it to the Olympia 2024 stage.

In an engaging conversation, Bruno reflects on the surreal journey from his pro debut in Romania to his triumphant achievements, all while maintaining a playful approach to his fitness regime. Discover how the joy of fulfilling his lifelong dream is intensified by the motivation he draws from his son, Benicio. We also touch on the camaraderie and support he found in the bodybuilding community, particularly from legends like Flex, and how overcoming language barriers has enriched his journey. As Bruno gears up for the historic 60th Mr. Olympia in Las Vegas, we celebrate his extraordinary accomplishments and the exciting milestones yet to come.
