Miesha Theresa Tate is an American mixed martial artist who competes in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. She was born on August 18, 1986 in Tacoma, Washington, United States. A former Strikeforce Women’s Bantamweight Champion, she is also well-recognized for earning a silver medal in the FILA Grappling Championships. The entertaining thing about Miesha is that she used to wrestle on the boys’ wrestling team when she was in high school. In 2005, she got the high school women’s state championship and went proceeded to win nationals at the World Team Trials in the 158 lb division.
According to Miesha, learning martial arts is really important. She told Shape, “You won’t just get sculpted; you’ll pick up valuable self-defense skills as well. A lot of the moves, from jujitsu in particular, were designed to enable weaker people to use leverage to protect themselves against an attacker.”
On the other hand, Miesha said that indulging in a spoonful of coconut oil is also helpful, especially when she doing her morning training. She said, “It’s packed with healthy fats and energizes me for my workouts.”
