Though success comes to those who wait, super-bodybuilder Lee Labrada makes sure it happened to him early through sheer hard work, determination, and passion. True enough, all his efforts are rewarded in many folds.

What a Career That Was

Born in Havana, Cuba, on March 8, 1960, Lee Labrada perhaps never had any inkling he’s going to be a certified fitness guru. When he was 16, one of the few things he wanted was to become the best football player, so he trained extremely hard to enhance strength and gain a lot of muscles.

Not long after, however, he realized that his real talent lies not on the field but on the stage, where he can proudly show off the fruits of hours of toil, burning calories, trimming fat, and toning muscles.
