Training

Cristina Bayardelle is known as a barbell expert. Barbells are her favorite piece of gym equipment – she uses them to train every single muscle in her body.

As a CrossFit athlete, it’s not unusual for Cristina to train multiple times per day, every day. She includes multiple types of training in her workouts, such as Olympic Lifts, conditioning sessions, and mobility drills.

While some athletes prefer either weight or volume, Cristina likes to switch between both. She believes that both training volume and heavy weights have their role in her physique development.

She rarely does cardio separately, as her long and exhaustive workouts burn large amounts of calories, along with keeping her body strong.

Nutrition

Cristina eats plenty of high-quality foods to fuel her tough workouts. She believes that by fueling her body with what it needs, she allows it to perform at its best.

For this reason, Cristina plans her diet around lean poultry meat, wild-caught salmon, oats, sweet potatoes, and vegetables with different colors.

Although she likes to prepare her meals on her own, Cristina doesn’t always have the time to do this. Therefore, she’ll sometimes eat out, but will always order a healthy food option from the menu.
