1. She Plays Volleyball
Mia played collegiate volleyball and still hits a ball around on occasion. “I love volleyball, I still play volleyball, but once I started training, wrestling was my passion,” she told Pro Wrestling Post. “I did get a scholarship for volleyball. I played it in high school for all four years. I got a full ride to Virginia Union for two years and then I transferred to Marymount University for a partial. Then I wanted to pursue volleyball for the Olympics, and that’s what my dad wanted me to do.”
2. She Trains Hard
Mia’s body was in great shape when she opted to trade in her volleyball for wrestling. “When I first started training in wrestling I was already conditioned because I played volleyball in college. So conditioning wise I was fine, I was used to running and doing blow up drills,” she said. She trains in a gym regularly, sharing videos and photos of her exercises on social media.
3. She Has an Accountability Buddy
Mia explained to Pro Wrestling Post that Shelton Benjamin is her accountability buddy. “He is the reason why I am not fat. I was getting fat and he was pointing it out. So, he’s the reason why I am jacked and in shape. I do the same for him; if I notice he is gaining some pounds I am sure to point that out. That is how we keep each other prepared for life,” she told the publication.
4. She Does Pilates
Mia is surprisingly into pilates. She shared this before and after photo taken at a pilates studio in front of a reformer. “Now Vs April 2022. I understood the assignment,” she captioned the social media post, showing off her lean figure. According to research, Pilates exercises are designed to increase muscle strength, endurance, and flexibility, and to improve posture and balance. Experts maintain that it is a great workout for leaning out.
5. She Stands Up to Body Shamers
Mia doesn’t have the time or energy to deal with body shamers. “The body shaming is disgusting. Y’all bold behind the screens. It costs nothing to be kind,” she tweeted in 2021.
