Mai opened up about her wellness routine to Fitforfun.com. In it, she talked about what motivates her to stay in shape. She says that one thing that motivates her is her desire to stay in shape. “My motivation comes mainly from two things: One is my well-being. I can tell pretty quickly when I want to move again, just to feel good! It's less about the outside. I want to stay fit and agile even in old age.”

2. She’s Motivated By Indulgence

Mai loves to indulge. She tells Fitforfun.com that this keeps her motivated. “And on the other hand, I have that proud feeling after a workout, when you jump in the shower and think: ‘Great, I did something. Now I deserve a pizza!’. So food is also my motivation. I don't like to do without, so my motto is: I'd rather do more sport, but also eat what you feel like!”

3. She Believes In Balance

When it comes to her diet, Mai believes in balance. “Healthy nutrition is important, but as I said, balance is the key,” she tells FitForFun.com. “That's why I don't believe in diets. On the one hand, because I just can't do it and become extremely aggressive after a few days (laughs) and on the other hand, because 99 percent of the time it ends with the yo-yo effect for me. I think everyone has to find out for themselves what helps or is good for them.”

4. She Works Out At Home

Mai opts for home workouts rather than going to the gym. “Team home workout,” she tells FitForFun.com. “Going to the gym has always been difficult for me, mainly due to time constraints. So, funnily enough – it's really no nonsense or anything – I've been a member of 'Gymondo' myself since 2014. At the time, I was looking for a way to be able to do sports in a hotel or on tour easily, quickly and, above all, with only limited space. That's why I'm of course all the more proud to actually be able to see my own workouts there.”

5. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Mai makes sure to take care of her skin. She revealed her secrets in an interview. “Of course, I also have my favorite creams and products that I like to use regularly, but on a day without appointments or public appearances, I don’t have any make-up on at all and I give my skin a break from the ‘limelight’. But I never leave the house without a sun protection factor and well-groomed teeth.”

4. She Gets Her Vitamin D

"Vitamin D isn't naturally found in many foods, but you can get it from fortified milk, fortified cereal, and fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel and sardines. Your body also makes vitamin D when direct sunlight converts a chemical in your skin into an active form of the vitamin (calciferol)," says the Mayo Clinic. "The amount of vitamin D your skin makes depends on many factors, including the time of day, season, latitude and your skin pigmentation. Depending on where you live and your lifestyle, vitamin D production might decrease or be completely absent during the winter months. Sunscreen, while important to prevent skin cancer, also can decrease vitamin D production."

“I’m kind of the same [since becoming a Housewife]. I’m the same, but my life is a little different. It doesn’t feel like anything is different, but I know it is. I am still shocked that people recognize me. I always think that it’s someone I know when they’re looking at me and they say, ‘Hi’—like I know them from somewhere. Obviously, I think the show gave my life a boost. I needed a little boost and that’s what it did. I will say that I am a lot busier than I have been in a while, but all good stuff,” she told NewBeauty.

I feel like we have been in a collective mental health crisis…our world is upside down on so many levels, but I think that the conversation has been brought to the forefront. There’s still so much stigma around it, though. I think we still have a long way to go.”

So when I watch this movie and I heard the part, what she was saying, when she gets into the ring, how to feels about it. So it kind of clicked for me.

I can do so many things in the ring that like me in my normal life, I wouldn't do,” she told The Wrassingh Show.

“I didn't grow up in wrestling. I didn't grow up watching wrestling and it's not common in Colombia. And that's why for me starting, I don't wanna say that I'm starting late because it's never too late to start something that you feel passionate about, because you can do so many things, but what if something else is what you are supposed to do? And I feel that that's me right now: Wrestling. If I knew about wrestling, I would've done this while ago, but the time is right now and I'm here,” she said on The Wrassingh Show.

Look, when you have passion for something, you just go and learn it and you do everything it takes to actually make it work and make it happen. And that's what I'm doing. And not just that, I also have to do my own training, which is something that requires weights, completely different.
