This is the story of Antonio Morales, another bodybuilder from Spain who started caring of his body at the age of 17 (actually he is 34 years old). Born in Alicant, the Spanish heavyweight didn't compete for the first time until 21, when he ended up third in the less than 176lbs class (80 kg) at the Murcia's Regional Championship in 1997.

Finally he ended up competing with the best, and in the 2006 IFBB World Championships in Ostrava, Czech Republic, he placed 3rd again in the light heavy class.

More results. In May of 2007, competing as a heavyweight, he ended up 6th at the European Amateur Championships, but in October of the same year he fell one category and also fell on the leaderboard to the 13th place in the South Korea Championship.

Lately, in 2008, Antonio achieved another 5th place European Championships in Playa de Aro.
