Who is Leyvina Barros?

Leyvina hails from Brazil and was born on October 14, 1996, making her 27 years old at the time of writing.

The ultra-fit bodybuilder also owns a sports club back home in Ceilândia.

She studied physical education at Unopar University a few years ago and was named super athletic and overall champion of the Mercosur Championship in April 2018.

The huge bodybuilder who boasts humongous pecs and often shows off her veiny arms on social media posts is married to fellow bodybuilder Antonio Inacio.

What is Ms. Olympia?

Leyvina is taking part in this year’s Ms. Olympia competition – a title awarded to professional female bodybuilders.

Ms. Olympia is the most prestigious competition in the IFBB Professional League.

It was first held in 1980 and last year’s win was scooped up by American Andrea Shaw, as were the last three.

Before qualifying for Ms. Olympia, she impressed judges at the Romania Muscle Fest Pro where she came first.

But fellow pro bodybuilder Tonio “The Predator” Burton revealed he’s choosing not to appear at Mr Olympia 2024.

Tonio made his Mr Olympia debut in 2021 and finished at 10th place in the 212 division.

However, he has announced that he would be withdrawing from Mr Olympia 2024 after qualifying for his position in California.

The news came as a shock to fans, who were hoping that he’d perform even better than he did at Mr Olympia 2023 where he came in at 8th.

He said that he had taken time off to focus on his health and recover from training.

Tonio made his pro debut at Indy Pro Bodybuilding Show 2021, which he went on to win.

He also won the champion title at the 2023 New York Pro, a massive achievement in the world of bodybuilding.

The athlete is very dedicated to his sport and spends hours in the gym, every day.

At one point in his career, he was eating six meals a day which were often made up of nine ounces of chicken, two cups of rice and asparagus
