COACH'S WEEK WITH ADAM BONILLA

In this first episode of the exclusive coach's week, host Celeste
Rains-Turk has a very informative, deep, and wide range
discussion PACKED with value from Adam Bonilla, the creator
of Team Elite Physique who has been working in the fitness
industry for 21 years and as a trainer for 19 of those years he
has honed his skills to the level of Master Trainer and
specializes in the area of the field in which he loves,
competition prep.

Adam opens up about his journey to his success and opening up the
Contest Prep Center and the hardships many people don't see that
coach's face. He talks about why he doesn't believe in fasted
cardio, doing more than (or anywhere near) 45 min cardio in a
day, what his philosophy is and how he wants to see the industry
change, along with his feelings about insta coaches.

Adam announces that Celeste is his 'go-to' coach when it comes to
the Psychology involved in competing, especially post-show and
how he uses various experts in different fields to serve his
client's at the highest level and so he can focus on being the
best at his job as a physique coach.

He shares the science behind why reverse dieting is not the best
way to go and breaks down his own approach with his athletes,
factors that play a role in metabolism, what kind of testing he
does at his Contest Prep Center to make sure all of his athletes
or people who come in are functioning or have a plan to improve
their function, and why he made his own waist trainers.
 
Adam also discusses why he believes in HIIT cardio over SS, Clean
Eating over IIFYM, 
He gets into the heart of the industry discussing the problem
many bikini competitors face when it comes to being put to
extremes to achieve a result and shares some key insights into
what he believes sets apart a 'good athlete' from a true
champion.

He also tells us what he thinks it takes to be a good coach, why
thinking politics plays a role is a bunch of disrespectful BS,
and why he doesn't train every elite athlete all year
round.

And of course, Tune in to hear Adam answer all the Coach's Week
Questions (Laid out in this blog post).
