Earlier this year, I was personally selected by Airbnb Global to help launch a brand-new initiative across just 70 exclusive cities worldwide, and I am proud to represent Toronto as one of their original hosts. This is a handpicked experience created to showcase what makes this city and its people powerful — and I’m bringing that energy through fitness.
This is a one-of-a-kind fitness session led by me — Alicia Bell, IFBB Pro, celebrity trainer, kinesiologist, and performance coach.
In each 60-minute session, you will get:
A personalized or semi-private workout tailored to your goals
Coaching focused on strength, confidence, and real results
A deeper look into how athletes and celebrities really train
A supportive and empowering experience whether you’re visiting or local
This is your chance to train with a Toronto personal trainer who lives and breathes the industry. I have coached Team Canada, worked with elite athletes, trained celebrity clients and even appeared in commercials for New Balance, Garnier, and Tokyo Smoke. I have been featured on magazine covers, in national campaigns, and recently appeared on Drake’s livestream with Adin Ross. My passion is helping people transform their bodies and their mindset — and now, I get to share that experience with you through Airbnb.

I am going to make blogging a daily thing from here on out. Since pre covid I have been inattentive to this blog and my own passions for helping people become the best version of themselves. And that is partially due to the fact I wasn't being the best version of myself. I was in a bad place after a bad relationship and a bad breakup and multiple unhealthy competition preps.
I am making 2024 my mission to find myself again and get in control over everything in my life:
Personal
Professional
Passions
Bodybuilding
Blogging
Vloggng
Podcasting
Re-building my brand
I wan to show up as the best version of myself. But not just for me but for others.
What does that mean for this blog?
It means content in blogs, reviews, news and all things health and fitness. I love it - even if no one is reading this or seeing my content this platform, YouTube and my podcast are more like journals/documentation of things I love and enjoy. And if I can positively impact anyone while sharing then that brings me joy.
This post is to keep me accountable. So thank you to those who made it this far.
My French bulldog Sampson passed away suddenly on Thursday morning. It was shocking and unexpected.
What I didn't do: fall off my plan, binge.
What I did do: Morn, loose sleep and took rest days.
Although I am heart broken and no frenchie or dog of that matter could replace my baby/sidekick/shadow and Adonis' brother. He truly was one of a kind. I have taken the days since to reflect and member him as he was. The most loving baby ever. However my life is still filled with love from Adonis.I have come to the realization my household and my family is meant to have 2 dogs. It is too quiet and lonely without another dog.
If you met Sammy or know me you know how much that dog meant to me. Im truly heartbroken and devastated. I don't have family and my dogs were/are my family. I was not prepared to lose Sammy at all nor am I in a financial position to purchase a new frenchie right now. But I will be saving up to get a new baby.
With that said I will be sending training programs and or guides to everyone who donates to my new puppy fund. Anything truly will help fill my lonely void and empty house.

10 Ways To Eat Healthy In 2021
Alicia Bell IFBB Figure Pro
This week I am dishing about Eating Healthy. With over 12 years experience in Personal Training, Kinesiology, Precision Nutrition and Athletics Coaching. I have learned what works and what doesn't. I have picked up some truths and strategies along the way that I implement with my own practices as well as my recommendations for my clients. Here are my top ten healthy eating tips for 2016. These ten strategies will help you eat healthier and stay on track so that you will succeed in achieving your goals.
Sweat More
When you workout hard and you lots of time in at the gym you are more likely to want to eat healthy. When you sweat your body rids itself of toxins. One of the most common things I hear from my clients is “I just worked my butt off in the gym for hours, why would I want to eat crap now and cancel out all of my results.” There couldn't be more truth to this. Why waste all of your hard earned sweat on a cheat food that you will probably regret afterwards? Most people find it isn't worth it.
The 10 Gulp Rule
I always suggest drinking a minimum of 3-4L of water for many reasons. Some of these reasons include speeding up your metabolism, riding the body of toxins and hydration. A lot of times we mistaken thirst and hunger believe it or not. So instead of reaching for a quick snack reach for a bottle of water first. But when you do remember this rule: The 10 Gulp Rule. When you pick up your bottle always gulp down 10 times. This will help you get in all of that water that I suggest.
Keep A Food Journal
It doesn't matter if you use an organizer, food planner or even a notepad or an app such as Myfitnesspal, I recommend that you track your food. Food journaling helps you realize just exactly what you are eating, the type of food it is, how many calories and where you can improve. It is also a great way to see how your body reacts to certain foods, meal timing and your energy levels compared to what you are eating. If you like journaling vs an app. Try Fitbook.
Eat Slowly
Did you know that a lot of our digestion actually begins in the mouth? When you don't properly chew your food you may be missing out on key nutrients that might not get extracted further on in your digestive system. Also it has been proven that when you chew your food slowly you are less likely to overeat because it allows your body time to send the signal that your stomach is full to your brain. When you chomp down an entire meal quickly your stomach doesn't send the signal to the brain in time and then it is too late and you have already overate.
Sign Up For A Meal Delivery
You “don’t have time” is honestly often times a legitimate excuse. More and more we are purchasing food. I personally have a hard time between work, coaching, training myself and content creating to cook food so I now rely on a meal delivery service to help keep me on track. Not only is the food delicious but it is customized and also delivered fresh to my door.
Make Overnight Oats So That You Always Have Breakfast Available
A lot of my clients are in a rush for breakfast and often skip it. Be prepared and pre make your breakfast. One of my favorite go to breakfasts are overnight oats. It's a simple grab and go if you prepare it the night before. Go here and check out some great recipe options from eatthis.com.
Eat By Using Proper Serving Sizes
Without meaning to we tend to undereat, over eat or binge. Precision Nutrition gives us a great guide to go by while we are on the go that is simple, always on us and easy to measure. What could this be you ask? Your hands. Yep you read that right. Follow this PN Guide to forgetting calorie counting and simply using your had to measure the amount of food you should be eating.
Make Mug Cake When You Are Craving Something Sweet
One of the best ways to satisfy a sweet craving or if you are particularly craving some sort of cakey substance is curbing your appetite with a mug cake. A protein mug cake that is. I usually find my recipes on pinterest but if you don't have pinterest you can get a lot of yummy mug cake recipes from dailyburn.com.
More Greens
Don’t be afraid to make friends with salad. The more greens you have the better. Not only do greens have loads of health benefits, give you energy but they also take a lot of energy for your body to digest. It's basically a win from all angles. However if you simply can't chew down loads of leafs supplement with products like Greens+ to make sure that you are getting all of your servings that you should be having so that you can maximize the health benefits, have energy and keep your diet healthy.
Have Protein In Your Gym Bag For A Post Workout Shake
When I am on the go I always keep a plastic baggie with a scoop of my favorite protein with me. This way I can quickly mix it up with water and I don’t have to eat take out or even cheat on my healthy diet. I love HD MUSCLE and you can use my CODE: Trainitright to save 10%
Make 2021 the year that you eat healthy, stick to your plan and achieve your goals. I know that these tips will help you just as they have helped both myself and countless clients and athletes that have worked with me over the years. Make it a habit not phase and Train It Right.
Today I want to share some tips on boosting your immune system.
Supplements are not meant to replace anything in the diet; after all, they are called “supplements.” In fact, with a solid nutrition plan, you probably don’t need any supplements, but not many of us have a diet that has enough variety, the right quantity, and the ideal quality of foods to cover all our bases.
I offer 1 on 1 coaching to help directly but some general tips:
Therefore, I always recommend a few supplements for most of my clients. Others might be recommended depending on your goals.
HD Muscle is my mail brand of choice because quality always equals better results.
High Quality Multi Vitamin—To ensure you are getting all your vitamins and minerals, a multi-vitamin is a must. This is a coverall and ensures you have the necessary components in your diet to keep you healthy.
High Quality Fish Oil or Omega 3Supplement—To ensure you are getting enough of this essential fat in your diet, a supplement is very important. A balanced diet often does not provide enough omega-3 fats. The research is pretty clear that fish oil is critical for reducing inflammation in the body and keeping you healthy. Look for high quality fish or krill oils that have high levels of DHA and EPA.
Probiotics are made up of good bacteria that helps keep your body healthy and working well. This good bacteria helps you in many ways, including fighting off bad bacteria when you have too much of it, helping you feel better.
Glutamine—This is something that can be added in for convenience or to ensure you are getting proper recovery and good digestion. It helps with bloating as well!
I hope youre all staying happy, healthy and safe!
Also reminder to anyone who is still waiting for a calendar. The mail here has been exceptionally slow - we are in lockdown again so my apologies. They should be arriving next week!
