Today I speak with David DeMesquita, a functional health coach on a mission to “make lives better”. For the past 8 years, he has helped people from a wide range of backgrounds to not just optimize internal systems, but ALSO achieve their best physiques ever. He has worked with some of the top Olympians in the IFBB and continues to help athletes of all ages and experiences. David has over 10 years of his own competitive bodybuilding experience, being coached directly by some of the best in the industry including the late Matt Porter and John Meadows, and Austin Stout. His love for the sport continues, as he continues sharing content on his YouTube channel with show predictions and division analysis.   Outside of fitness, David is a nerd, and enjoys playing various PC video games and watching anime. He enjoys weekend house projects and playing with his Bengal cats, Luke and Leia. He and his wife Caroline reside in Atlanta, Georgia.    TOPICS COVERED -functional health & cortisol management -balancing hormones & menstrual cycles -longevity in bodybuilding -recovering health naturally -taking unnecessary risks -truths about PEDs & SARMs -stimulate use & cortisol levels -capitalizing on opportunity   CONNECT WITH CELESTE: Website: http://www.celestial.fit Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/celestial_fit/ All Links: http://www.celestial.fit/links.html CONNECT WITH DAVID: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dynamite_d/ [email protected] YouTube Channel: @DavidDeMesquita  tik tok: David DeMesquita   TIME STAMPS 1:00 introduction 8:20 optimizing bodybuilding prep 15:15 recovering from disordered eating  26:47 rushing to the result 35:40 usage of PEDs in female athletes 42:02 SARMs and side effects 46:45 longevity in the industry 56:16 primo entering the bikini community 1:03:30 measuring side effects of PEDs 1:05:45 managing cortisol  1:15:20 rapid fire questions 1:28:03 overuse of stimulants 1:34:31 the toll of coaching 1:46:50 common misconceptions 1:52:18 politics in bodybuilding 2:01:45 good athlete versus champion athlete 2:10:45 gut health and performance 2:29:20 being ready for stage 2:54:00 fertility   CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE FOOD RELATIONSHIP COACHING SERIES   CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE POST SHOW BLUES COACHING SERIES   LEARN MORE AND APPLY FOR MY 5 WEEK FOOD RELATIONSHIP HEALING & DISCOVERY COACHING PROGRAM   FOR OTHER FREE RESOURCES, LIVE EVENTS, AND WAYS TO WORK WITH CELESTE CLICK HERE
