Ronda Rousey completes the body transformation
Last week Ronda Rousey uploaded a video to mark six months on her fitness trip.
It showed the Olympian six weeks after the birth and ended with her who was torn six months later.
“Here is a small update on how the recovery after the baby goes,” wrote the Instagram post.
“Thank you @Dangarnernutrition for helping to reclaim my physical identity from my 2nd pregnancy 🙏õ @rickylundell @babyfacebenoit @abletowill and @aj_mma for the weather in a cage.
'Please book your judgment for my messy room and smeared mirror. I just had a baby and am too tired to clean it – up
“I have heard the recovery for the 2nd baby is easier than the first, so maybe it is partly due to it, but being able to train MMA have made a huge difference this time – as if my joints feel tighter and I feel simply healthier and firm compared to doing regular gym lifting/cardio training as I did to recover.
“It was great to find joy in training again. I missed it, my body missed it.”

Will Ronda Rousey ever fight again?
Holly Holm spread Rousey to spoil her perfect 12-0 record on UFC 193 in November 2015.
13 months later, Rousey was stopped by strikes for only 48 seconds in her fight with Amanda Nunes.
Rousey led a second consecutive loss to retire at just 29 years old. Since then, MMA fans have been calling for her return, but in 2024 she closed the hope for a comeback by revealing that a concussion had derailed its UFC career.
“It is nice to feel missed, I think. But it doesn't happen. I am not neurologically fit to compete at the highest level. I just can't,” said Rousey last August.
“You just come to a level where the neurological injuries that you accumulate over time. They don't get better.”
