Ronda Rousey

TRAINING: A typical day of training starts with coffee, followed by music and driving, followed by workout #1, which is usually either striking or strength and conditioning. Then more driving, lunch, nap, then workout #2, which could be anything from wrestling to grappling to swimming. Some days we'll add a third workout, but that usually depends on how I'm feeling on that particular day.

When and why did you start training for fighting? I started judo at 11, retired at 21, and started MMA at 22 because I realized I didn't really want to work in a conventional field of work for the rest of my life.

What ranks and titles have you held? Junior World Champion (judo) World Silver Medalist (judo) Olympic Bronze medalist (judo) Pan Am Games Champion (Judo) 4th degree Black belt in Judo

Do you have any heroes? FEDOR!!! I would have 57 of his babies if he'd let me.

Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? I did go to a few colleges and I learned that formal education is not for me.

What was your job before you started fighting? I was a bartender, cocktail waitress, canine physical therapy assistant, and I also worked graveyard shifts for 24 hour fitness.

Specific accomplishments in amateur competition? 3-0 in amateur MMA - all 3 fights combined was under 2 minutes

Ranks in any martial arts styles: 4th dan in Judo

Favorite grappling technique: Anything that results in me winning

Favorite Striking technique: Anti-game
