Victor Martinez Workout

Victor Martinez Bodybuilder Workout Routine

Victor Martinez is a Dominican IFBB professional bodybuilder that has placed as high as second at the Mr. Olympia competition. Victor is another top professional bodybuilder that started weight training as a power-lifter. Although he competes like a bodybuilder, training for strength is still his priority.

He openly admits that he had to change his training technique when he started bodybuilding to training for maximum muscle mass and not strength. Victor says that he still gets motivated when he's holding heavy dumbbells and barbells. Every workout he does now has a heavy section in it, no matter what cycle he's on because without lifting a heavy weight he says that's not a workout.

The bodybuilding media and his fellow professional bodybuilders all agree that Victor's muscle depth together with the balance and proportion he presents whenever he's onstage put him in the top 10 professional bodybuilders. He stands 5'9" tall and competes at 245lbs.
