Model Professional Art Miami Fitness Action Beauty Bikini Discipline Challenges Training Reaction Bodybuilding Muscle Car Work

MIAMI based architect Caridad Sola has transformed her body from bikini model to professional bodybuilder. The 40-year-old started training in 2013 and has recently gained her IFBB Pro card, becoming a professional bodybuilder. Whilst at university Caridad was told she would never look like the women in fitness magazines, a decade later she proved the opposite, competing as a bikini model. However, her journey had only just begun, becoming more and more muscular, she explains bodybuilding slowly transformed every part of her body. Where Caridad would get a lot of positive reactions when she first started working out, these days she also receives a lot of negative comments. She told Truly: “Bodybuilding challenges people’s perceptions of beauty, you get looked at like you’re a circus freak.” Yet, the hard work and discipline that goes into becoming a professional bodybuilder, makes it undeniable that Caridad is setting her fitness goals for no one, but herself. “Some people would say they prefer the way I looked before, I honestly don’t care what they think, I am doing this for myself, and no one else," Caridad added.
