Q & A

LIST YOUR TOP 3 TIPS ON TRAINING, NUTRITION OR CONTEST PREP

  1. Always be honest with your coach. They can’t help you if you aren’t telling them everything that’s going on with your training, diet and supplementation.
  2. You don’t have to eat boring meals on prep. Your meals are as creative as you make them.
  3. Always give it 100% – diet, training, supplements, nutrition. Don’t hold back in any season. There is a reason for every season.

FAVOURITE INDUSTRY HIGHLIGHTS

  1. Winning the Overall At Canadian Nationals and achieving my IFBB Pro Card.
  2. My IFBB Figure Pro Debut
  3. All 3 of my covers.

“I never give a workout that I haven’t tried myself so I know exactly what it feels like…and yes you can do it…it might be tough but I know if you push yourself you can.”

A little bit about Alicia's personal fitness journey:

Alicia Bell - Toronto Based Fitness Expert
Alicia Bell - Toronto Based Fitness Expert

I’ve always been an athlete — but my journey to becoming a top Toronto personal trainer, performance coach, and fitness influencer hasn’t been easy.

Since moving to Toronto, Canada to grow my career as a celebrity fitness coach and online transformation expert, I’ve experienced more setbacks than most people would believe. But I never quit. I never let my circumstances define me. I picked myself up — again and again — and kept moving forward.

My first major obstacle? A complete ACL tear, a ruptured meniscus, and a fractured tibial plateau — all at once. I went through multiple surgeries, months of rehab, and injections just to regain basic function. I still don’t have full range of motion in that knee.
But I kept going. No excuses.

The next year, while riding my motorcycle to coach my Toronto track team, I was hit by a cab. I flew off the bike, reinjured my knee, suffered whiplash, back trauma, and ripped open my hand in the streetcar tracks.
Still didn’t stop me. Still didn’t quit.

As I was rehabbing again, I was hospitalized for a rare tumor. It wasn’t cancer, but it required seven rounds of chemotherapy. Most people wouldn’t train through that. I did. I even started my first bodybuilding prep during chemo, still coaching clients, still showing up — swollen, exhausted, and determined.
I didn’t complain. I didn’t make it content. I just did the work.


Now, I’m proud to be known as a Toronto-based celebrity trainer, IFBB Figure Pro, performance coach, and fitness influencer who’s trained high-profile clients, athletes, and everyday people chasing transformation.

My story isn’t just about physical strength — it’s about mental grit, resilience, and consistency.
If you're facing setbacks, I want you to know:
You are not your circumstances. You are your actions.

Keep going. Stick to the plan.
Find your support system. And don’t ever let someone else’s opinion — or your situation — limit what you’re capable of.

Let’s Train It Right.
