PNBA Men’s Physique athlete details the best shoulder exercises and food to eat in natural bodybuilding.
Your shoulders and the food you eat play a big part in the overall development of your physique in natural bodybuilding. Your shoulders will enhance your v-shape, which is imperative for a well-developed body, and of course, the food you eat is critical for building proportional muscle and cutting body fat. We got some insight from Professional Natural Bodybuilding Association (PNBA) athlete Massimiliano Sertori on which shoulder exercises and food are the most important for natural bodybuilding.
Massimiliano Sertori competes in the Men’s Physique division and won the category in his pro debut at the 2022 INBA PNBA Battle Against Cancer in Corona, CA, on May 28. We asked Sertori what the best shoulder exercises are, and he responded:
“for me the best exercises for the shoulders are undoubtedly the lateral raises in all types, to the cables, sitting in stripping and the military press. Great exercises to create a nice impact v-shape.”
And when asked about the food to eat in natural bodybuilding, Sertori said:
“the best foods to achieve maximum results for me are: protein source: horse beef and chicken, carbohydrates: oats, basmati rice and unleavened bread. Source of fat: olive oil and nuts and as vegetables Carrots / cauliflower. Trying every meal to have both a protein / carbohydrate and fat share.”
Massimiliano Sertori’s Natural Bodybuilding Background
Massimiliano Sertori is from Italy and was born on November 24, 1998. Sertori’s early interest in wrestler’s physique inspired him to start training. His initial results with his physique motivated him to learn more about natural bodybuilding. Sertori dug up everything he could about professional bodybuilding via books, magazines, and YouTube videos.
A YouTube video of the bodybuilder Jeff Seid winning the Men’s Physique category at a bodybuilding show sparked Sertori’s eagerness to start competing. Sertori stated:
“With the vision of this video I decided to compete in 2018 at 19 yo from there I have never stopped , i compete in the NBFI (INBA global Italy), believing in a path of health and well-being for the body that thanks to the INBA / PNBA is possible thanks to their ethics, they keep their athletes, doping controls and many unique experiences all over the world.”
