Come check out the podcast interview, guys Morgana: Leandro, before we start talking about the subject of the podcast, tell us a little about yourself and your career! How it all began? So, my history with Physical Education is something that has been in me since I was a child. I was always that active child, who liked to play. I was an active chubby guy – we used to joke at home that I was a smart chubby guy! I was chubby because I ate a lot, but I really liked exercising, I liked games, I always really liked competition. So, I danced, I played football, I played volleyball. And then, as I had this aptitude, when it got close to college, I said: “I think I want to do Physical Education, I want to work with that.
Then, I took the entrance exam, passed it and entered college at the age of sixteen, very young. I didn't have much of a mind yet... I think it was too early! At first, as Physical Education is divided into a degree and a bachelor's degree, I Lebanon Mobile Number List did a degree. However, I ended up realizing that teaching at school was not for me. I even had this intention when I started college, but after I discovered the fitness world, the gym, I started trainingand I said: “that's not what I want”. So, during college, I changed cities, I lived in the countryside and went to a bigger city, to start doing an internship with step classes and localized gymnastics, with a teacher who gave me the opportunity to intern at his gym. And, being in the gym, this passion for bodybuilding came towards the end of college, and I started to think: “this is what I want for my life, I really, really, really like it.” After I introduced bodybuilding into my life, I started thinking: “this is very important, I can change people’s lives with this”. So, I finished my degree, completed another year of my bachelor's degree and, in total, it was four years of college. Then, after I graduated, I immediately started working as a personal trainer: I left college already employed at this gym where I was doing an internship and, since then, a lot has changed.
Morgana: And, as a personal trainer, how long have you been working? Leandro: Oh, ten years. It's been exactly ten years since I graduated in Physical Education and started working with it. And, about a year and a half ago, I completed the Nutrition course, because I felt the need to add something, to offer a more complete job, with training and diet – an integrative job, right? Many people think that they will pay a personal trainer and he will solve their problems, but that is not the case. So, I always tell students: I show the way, but you are the one who has to follow! So, the person arrives and does the beautiful, killer training, gives in... but sleeps poorly, eats poorly, doesn't drink water... then it gets complicated, right? Morgana: And, nowadays, do you give face-to-face consultancy too? Or do you only work online? Leandro: So, consulting came into my life just before the pandemic. I had been teaching face-to-face classes as a personal trainer for a long time… and I saw the need to look for more income, even money. In person, there comes a time when you no longer have time to fit students into your day-to-day life! He ends up teaching a lot of classes, waking up early in the morning, arriving home late… and I thought: “I want to make more money.
