Biography
Bodybuilding Career
His older brothers first exposed Geder Rocha to bodybuilding.
Geder, at 14 years old, was excited to see his physique change as a result of weight training.
He quickly experienced “gains” in strength and size after listening to his older, wiser brothers. The young and aspirational Geder fell in love with bodybuilding as a result of the entire experience, inspiring him to take on bigger challenges in the shape of bodybuilding competitions.
Pro Card Triumph
Geder didn’t take bodybuilding long to commit to full-time, competing as a Men’s Physique athlete.
He competed in the 2017 Arnold Classic Amateur in Ohio after only one season. Geder impressively left that day’s competition with first place and a Pro Card.
A Successful Athlete
Geder is currently a successful bodybuilder and professional athlete.
He keeps raising the bar year after year for himself as well as other athletes he meets on the bodybuilding stage.
Training (Workout)
Geder Rocha practices bodybuilding like any other professional; during the “off-season,” he concentrates on hard compound movements to sculpt and shape his physique, while during the contest preparation period, he performs lighter workouts with more repetitions.
Geder selects exercises that are straightforward and fundamental:
- Bench Press
- Squats
- Pull-ups
- Deadlifts
- T-Bar Rows
- Leg Press
- Biceps Curls
- Triceps Extensions
Geder opposes “changing things up,” as do some sportsmen. Instead, he makes development by consistently lifting higher weights each month.
To maintain his muscle mass while cutting, he tries to lift as much weight as he can during his contest preparation.
Nutrition (Diet Plan)
Geder’s diet is all about simplicity and sticking to what works for him, just like his exercise.
He consumes standard bodybuilding fare like white rice with chicken, potatoes with fish and vegetables, and a lot of heart-healthy fats from avocados and olive oil.
Geder Rocha will lower his intake of calories from carbohydrates when he trims down for a competition. This will prevent insulin spikes, which can lead to weight gain, and keep him below his maintenance calorie intake.
Influences And Idols
Early influences on Geder came from his older brothers. They inspired Geder to start his bodybuilding career, and he hasn’t looked back since.
