HOTNESS INFUSION CRISTINA BONADIO 86   MUSCLE MEMORY | AUGUST/SEPTEMBER 2018 C ristina Bonadio has been working out since she was 17 and her eight years in fitness have taught her a thing or two about making change. She says her entire life has changed, and for the long term, since she ventured down the fitness path. And she wanted the change. Cristina has learned some important life lessons at a young age. “You have to want to change your lifestyle for yourself and only you. No one can make the decision for you. No one can make you change your eating habits and no one can drag you to the gym. Change comes from within and yes, at times it’s scary because it’s difficult and it’s challenging but my passion keeps me committed.” That sounds like some serious wisdom—preach! Cristina finds inspiration in helping people become the best versions of themselves. She finds purpose and fulfillment in sharing advice about fitness and nutrition. Her passion is to share and teach others to help themselves. She believes that being a life coach takes not only knowledge but a deeper knowing of who she truly is so that she can connect with others and have a positive impact. Cristina has always been into sports and exercise but it wasn’t until she did a deep dive into her nutrition and completely changed her relationship with food and the way she ate that she started to see a shift in her body structure. She fell in love with the process and was hooked.
