RENUEL SANCHEZ Fitness Professional & General Manager at MMA Fitness Center

TRISH PASCUAL SANCHEZ – Fitness Professional Fitness Philosophy: “Together, in fitness and in health!” What they do: Both of them do weight training. Trish was never afraid to lift weights. She knows for a fact that it doesn’t make women bulky; it makes them more toned. Renuel is into Mixed Martial Arts, the fastest growing sport in the world today. Trish does kickboxing. They lift weights 3 to 4 times a week, and practice MMA or kickboxing twice a week. What they eat: We don’t have a special diet! Most people think we do, but it’s a lifestyle! We just try to eat natural foods as much as possible, so we avoid processed foods. Eat lean, be lean! Once or twice a week we have a cheat meal, when we eat whatever we want. Big fat burgers, chicharon, fried chicken – you name it! It’s more tempting when you miss it, so it’s ok to have it every once in a while. It’s certainly better than craving and having unhealthy food all the time!
