1. She Surrounds Herself with People
Joanna is a social creature and is happier around others. “I don’t like to be myself,” she told MMA Fighting. “I like people around me. When I’m back home, there is always my fiancé, my sisters, my little nephew, my friends. Every weekend I go to my parents’ house and we spend the weekends together. It’s all about the right people.”
2. She Hydrates
Joanna prioritizes hydration. She revealed to MMA Figher that she drinks five quart-sized bottle of Smart Water per day. She added to Forbes that she infuses her water with electrolytes to help replenish those she loses throughout the day.
3. She Starts the Day with Coffee
“Every morning, we have coffee, because I’m a big coffee fan,” Jedrzejczyk revealed to MMA Fighter. Science continues to prove that drinking coffee is great for your health. In fact, a new 2022 study published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology found that drinking two to three cups a day of most types of coffee – especially a mild to moderate intake of ground, instant, and decaffeinated coffee – may protect you from cardiovascular disease and an early death.
4. She Bikes 10 Miles Per Day
In her interview with Forbes it was revealed that Jędrzejczyk bikes five miles to her gym at American Top Team (ATT) in nearly 90-degree heat. After training she repeats the five-mile trek back home in less than 20 minutes.
5. She Does “Six Sports in One”
“Joanna’s schedule is a tough one,” one of her coaches at American Top Team, Mike Brown, told Forbes. “It’s a lot of volume, it’s a lot of hard work. It’s not like one sport where you’re training for just one thing. It’s six sports all in one: it’s kickboxing, it’s wrestling, it’s jiu jitsu, it’s judo, it’s boxing and on top of that, it’s strength and conditioning.”
6. She Also Enjoys These Outdoor Sports
Joanna also runs on the beach and paddle-boards, both which offer many health benefits. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and also a great form of cardio. The water sport can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140 pound male and 436 for a female the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.
