SANTI ARAGON
|
|
Santi Aragon is a bodybuilder, personal trainer and fitness model from Miami. He never
really intended to get into bodybuilding, but sort of fell into it. He was a travel ice
hockey player from the age of 7 to 18 years old. After being offered to play at many
different prep schools and colleges, Santi realized that the love for the sport was not
there anymore for him. Being a competitive athlete his whole life, he needed to focus his
competitive nature in something else. Santi was familiar with the gym since he did a lot of
conditioning training in the offseason for jos travel season. He always had good proportions
and oversized legs for his height due to all the skating but with all the cardio that he did
on the ice, it didn’t allow his body to grow and get heavy. As soon as Santi cut the cardio,
his muscles started to grow and people started to notice that maybe he should consider
competing one day. He instantly got hooked and read everything he could to learn about
training and nutrition so that one day he could compete. And compete he did! After winning
his first show, Santi has been hooked ever since. He won 7 straight shows at the age of 21.
At the 2007 NGA Florida Championships he took 1st in Teens, 1st in Novice; at the 2008 NPC
Mid Florida Classic he took 1st in Open Mens Middleweight; at the 2008 NPC Southern States he
took 1st in Teen Middleweight; and at the 2008 NPC Teen & Collegiate Nationals he took 1st in
Teen Lightweight and 1st in Collegiate Lightweight. Currently living and attending school in
South Florida, Santi's amazing conditioning and solid muscularity are matched by his ease and
comfort in front of the camera. His ambition is to turn pro, and we are sure that with his
positive attitude and strong discipline that he will reach his goal soon. He took a long
year and a half off to finish some school work and then decided that it was time to hit the
stage again to get that pro card. He's been working with his trainer Yano Garcia who has
competed in various National Level shows including the 2009 NPC Nationals. In 2010, Santi
returned to competition and again entered the NPC Southern States Bodybuilding Championships,
in which he won his Open Welterweight Class and nearly took the overall title from the Super
Heavyweight winner. Santi, who stands just 5'5" tall, is nicknamed "Mighty Mouse" because of
his reputation of beating the bigger guys and taking overall titles. Santi most recently took
the stage at a National pro-qualifier, the 2010 USA Bodybuilding Championships in Las Vegas,
where he took 5th Place in a very competitive Welterweight Class. We look for Santi to
achieve that pro status in the near future. We photographed Santi a week out of the 2010
Southern States show and he looked fantastic. We are very pleased to be able to add Santi
Aragon to our roster of top bodybuilding and fitness models at NorthAmericanBodies.com!
