The daughter of Ron Rousey and AnnMaria De Mars, she started to perform judo at the age of 11 under the guidance of her mother who happened to be an American judoka. By the time she reached the age of 17, she became qualified for the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens and was noted as the youngest judoka in the Entire Games. In the year 2004, she made an impression when she earned a gold medal at the 2004 World Junior Judo Championships which was held in Budapest, Hungary. She then made an appearance on screen after her intriguing nude photo pictorial for the cover of ESPN The Magazine’s 2012 Body Issue. In 2013, she was ranked 29 on the Maxim Hot 100.
Swimming is Ronda’s favorite exercise apart from doing martial arts. What motivates her to work hard, by the way?” It takes years of forced motivation,” Ronda said in one of her interviews. “It’s easy to want to be the best in the world for one day, even for a week… but to sustain that drive is extremely difficult. All it takes is the ability to make yourself get up and go train, even when you have every reason and excuse in the world not to.”
When it comes to her diet, she said, “I usually have a high-carb breakfast (like oatmeal), a half carb/half protein lunch, and then an all-protein dinner. I can have little snacks throughout the day, like frozen grapes, almonds with agave nectar or trail mix. And I never eat within three hours of going to bed.”
