Jessica AndradeTRAINING: I wake up at 7am, have a glass of milk and go running. Usually I do about 10kms in the morning. When I get back home I rest a bit and at 10am I go to the gym to do strength and conditioning. From there I go back home to have lunch. At 12:40 I leave home again to get to the gym at around 1:30pm to have my boxing training. At around 3:30 I leave the gym and go back home, rest a bit and have dinner. At 7pm I’m back at the gym and I do my 2 night sessions, which are usually Muay Thai, Jiu-Jitsu or MMA. From there it's back home. I take a shower and go to bed.
When and why did you start training for fighting? I used to do judo in school, and when I was finishing high school I was invited to start training jiu-jitsu. Eight months after my first jiu-jitsu class I had my first pro fight, I loved it and had to keep on doing it. That was back in 2011.
