Known for running GNT’s Rainha da Cocada program, the icing chef Raíza Costa, 38, said he won a national body transformation contest and won a prize of $ 10,000 – about $ 54,000 in the current price.
Raíza discreetly participated in a fitness challenge that brought together 25,000 subscribers across the country. The proposal was clear: in 60 days, participants should achieve the biggest changes in body composition, either by gaining lean mass or body fat would gain $ 10,000 in cash and 15,000 in health and well-being related products.
During the two months of the challenge, Raíza Costa followed an intense training routine: bodybuilding four times a week and aerobic exercises in two days, totaling six weekly sessions of one hour each. As a result, it lost 13 kg of fat without compromising muscle mass – something proven by bioimpedance examination.
“It was no use losing weight anyway or with a radical caloric deficit, which always results in loss of lean mass,” he said.
Food also played an essential role, but without extreme measurements. Raíza explained that he maintained a balanced diet, rich in nutritious foods, without excluding any food group – not even carbohydrates. “I kept feeding very well, with homemade, colorful and varied meals. I just adjusted the proportions for prioritizing protein and fiber.
