Manaus (AM) – Standing out in the powerlifting category, Karen Peixoto won another title for Amazonas. The athlete, who has been practicing the sport for two years, has been evolving in the strength sport and is already projecting big dreams through the sport. His most recent title was first place in the powerbiceps repetitions category, at Arnold South America, held in São Paulo.

Seeking to evolve with each competition, Karen Peixoto continues to conquer her space on the national sporting scene. At the beginning of this month, the Amazon native won first place in the powerbiceps repetitions category and runner-up in the free powerbiceps, at the biggest strength sporting event in Latin America, Arnold South America.

“I am very happy and fulfilled to have participated in this championship in São Paulo and bring another title to Amazonas. Now, my focus is on the Mister Olympia that takes place in October and the World Championship that will take place in Santa Catarina”,

commented Karen Peixoto.

It is in the strength sport, where the objective is to lift the greatest weight possible, that Karen Peixoto has achieved great things in recent years. The Amazon native, mother of two girls, has an intense training routine and is proud to talk about the support she receives through the Bolsa Sport Estadual.

“Bolsa Sport is an incentive for athletes, because through this financial incentive we are able to go further, participating in championships outside the state and the country”, highlighted Karen Peixoto.

“Powerlifting is on the rise in our state, and we will continue to support the sport to grow even further. Karen is an example of an athlete who, through Bolsa Sport, carries the Amazonas flag in major competitions and inspires new talents in our state”, said the Secretary of State for Sports and Leisure (Sedel), Jorge Oliveira.
