Biography
Short Career of Julie Bonnett Germaine
Growing up, Julie Bonnett had a passion for both dance competitions and the arts. She typically made the trip from her hometown to the metropolis, Monday through Friday, to take dance courses.
“It’s weird that I’m a professional athlete because when I was younger, I was quite interested in the arts. Up until my early teens, I was a competitive tap and jazz dancer.
Julie began juggling employment and school after she reached her late teens, so she ran out of time to keep going into the city to practice dance.
Julie concluded that she needed to find another method to be active and in shape. Soon after, she and one of her “female pals” began working out in the high school’s basement gym.
She stated, “I had read that bodybuilding was fantastic for maintaining fit,” describing the gym as the ideal place to stay in shape.
In a few months, Julie had become more passionate than ever about her workouts. Julie became hooked on fitness after seeing her initial “newbie gains,” constantly pursuing progress with her body.
Julie eventually “took her physique and career to the next level” as a result of this. Within two years of starting her competitive career, she was a professional athlete competing in bikini shows.
By 2016, Julie had won the Ms. Fitness Manitoba title and was a two-time WBFF Pro Fitness Model Champion, one of her most proud professional achievements.
Since that time, Julie has been married to Craig, with whom she co-founded a business for physique consulting and their website for fitness. With a focus on assisting athletes in getting ready for events, they have emerged as one of the industry’s top trainers.
“Craig and I are instances of a top bodybuilder and published fitness model who are succeeding in other aspects of our lives, and I’m proud of that.
Anyone may obsessively diet and exercise to have the body of their dreams, but you can’t let everything else in life that matters slip your mind.
Training
matching her objectives
Julie works out up to three times a day while preparing for competitions: cardio in the morning, weight lifting in the afternoon, and cardio in the evening.
She does, however, like to switch up her routines seasonally to meet her objectives. This implies that Julie may occasionally perform just one activity per day, and she may even take a full week off to allow her body to recover from her strenuous workouts.

Three Of Julie’s Favorite Workouts
Stiff-Legged Deadlifts: Julie like this exercise since it has helped her develop her glutes and hamstrings.
By including this exercise in her program, Julie has been able to keep her glutes “strong and tight.” The exercise, she added, maybe a fantastic superset to any other lower body action.
Lateral dumbbell raises with bent arms: Julie claims that this workout gives her shoulders a fantastic pump.
Nutrition (Exercise)
Julie cuts back on carbohydrates four weeks before the concert while maintaining high levels of fats and proteins in her diet.
Julie, like every other competitor, maintains a regular healthy diet while she is not preparing for a competition. The majority of the time, she consumes entire foods like kale, broccoli, spinach, chicken, red wine, rice, whole wheat pasta, nuts, etc.
When it comes to cheating meals, Julie doesn’t frequently indulge. She decides instead to treat herself to something other, such as a massage, bubble bath, sauna, pedicure, shopping, etc.
