Martin Petro Biography


I first got involved in bodybuilding at only 14 years of age. Training hard throughout my teens I 
never entered any contest- just trained for myself to get better. Later when I moved to the UK in 2005, I went on to compete in my first natural bodybuilding contest in 2007. It was BNBF Southern where I placed 3rd as a Novice. Same year, I won my first contest- NPA South east. After this succes as a novice competitor I entered only one contest in 2009 in U-78kg category where I placed 2nd. Then I took time off to concentrate on my studies, future career and further improvements.

Two years later, in 2011, I came back to the stage and entered all NPA qualifiers placing in top 3 every contest, winning the middleweights with BNBF Southern but losing out on the overall. In 2012 I grabbed second at the NPA Midlands and winning every contest ever since- the most precious NPA Mike Williams Classic & PRO-AM and the overall, UKDFBA U-80kg, NPA British middleweight tittle and UIBBN World Championships.

After winning World Championships in 2012 I decided to move back to Prague, Czech, where I work as a personal trainer, nutrition consultant and massage therapist. I am also cooperating with Flora Health Canada (www.florahealth.com) and I opened e-shop with Udo`s Choice supplements here in Prague with one of my favorite product of all time - Udo`s Oil Blend. 
I took two years off from competing with only one goal in my mind - to win my Pro Card. And so in 2015 after two long years off the stage I came back to win my Pro Card in England at the UKDFBA/WNBF Pro International Championships. It was my very first time to prepare for a contest in Prague, Czech, everything was so different than in UK. But I loved it. I looked my best on stage to this date. I gave it all my heart. It was an amazing experience and my life long goal became reality.
 I am taking off this year 2016 but I will return back next year to compete in the US. My next goal is to qualify for the WNBF Pro World Championships and to win the WNBF Pro World Championships.
