Ashley Cummins: American Mixed Martial Artist Reveals Her Workout & Diet

March 20, 2017 By Namita Nayyar (WF Team)

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

Do you take some special diet or have a strict menu that you follow to remain healthy and physically fit?

Ms. Ashley Cummins:

Every fighter must eat healthy and have a strict diet to be able to make weight. I change up my diet every fight camp, which is eight weeks leading up to the fight. I also try to eat healthy when not training for a fight so I do not increase too much weight over my fight weight. The typical foods I eat are grilled chicken, veggie/fruit smoothies, eggs, almonds, brown rice, turkey, all veggies, fruit (usually bananas, apples, and blueberries), oatmeal, etc.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

Advice and motivational words to the inspiring and budding mixed martial artist girls who all are your fans, they shall like to know from you, what they should do for their climb to ladder of success in field of women mixed martial art professional fighting?

Ms. Ashley Cummins:

Best advice I can give is never give up on your dreams. I have had a lot of setbacks in my career as a fighter and in law enforcement and by never giving up you will eventually get past the setbacks and florish in whatever it is. You don’t want to quit and later in life look back and wonder “what if?”

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

You came close to permanently losing vision in your eye courtesy one of the bout with Joanne Calderwood, but it did not stop you from returning to the cage. How you were able to overcome such a physical injury/setback and what advice you can give to fellow fighter person in a similar situation?

Ms. Ashley Cummins:

In MMA injuries are apart of the sport. Some worse than others. Mine was devastating just for the fact for an entire week I could not see. I laid in bed all week waiting for surgery and scared wondering if my vision was ever going to come back or if I was going to loose my job or ever be able to fight again. I recovered from surgery and my vision slowly started to come back. I took a few months off from training after recovering to try to give time to myself and see if I wanted to continue fighting and possibly risk loosing my vision again.

My time away from MMA I missed the sport and competing and realized I cannot have MMA not in my life. I slowly started to train and spar again and saw being punched in the face was not affecting my vision at all and was confident the metal plate surgically put in my face would prevent another simialr injury. My advice after a devasting injury is take some time to yourself and see if continuing in the sport is someone you want to pursue or if retiring to let your body heal is what is most important for you.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

With exceptional hard work you are credited with all your achievements. Do you believe that does the hand of Providence (Supreme Being) played a role in your success?

Ms. Ashley Cummins:

Of course! Without hard work you will not achieve anything. That includes any sport or profession outsode of MMA.
