Gadelha genuinely loves to work out, and has good advice for beginners. “My favorite thing to do to train is Jiu Jitsu. I love it,” she told The Abs Company. “My favorite non-fight training exercise is running – outside for sure! I love to workout! It makes me feel so good during and after. I really feel satisfied after a good workout..and have that great feeling of accomplishment when I’m done… Start small but START. Do a little more today than you did yesterday. Be consistent and Stay Motivated. Believe in yourself and stay very committed! Follow your dreams..and you will make it there!”
Gadelha uses THORNE supplements. “I start my supplement routine with probiotics, L glutamine powder, and creatine,” she says. “After that I eat my breakfast and then take all my other supplements, like Thorne’s vitamin C, vitamin D, Super EPA, [Curcumin Phytosome], and Glucosamine & Chondroitin.”
Gadelha’s diet changes depending on her training. “I eat every 3 hours all year round,” she told The Abs Company. “I try to eat clean, but definitely indulge in some chocolate…in moderation of course. However when fight camp starts I eat totally clean and healthy with no ‘junk’ at all.”
Gadelha is proud of how far she has come. “I still wake up every day with that drive, and I have learned so much from losses and mistakes, so now I feel like I have found the right formula to be happy in my personal life with all the other things I have going on in my career,” she told THORNE.
