Cherneka fuels up with food while she is training. "What I eat in a day during fight camp. When it comes to cleaning up my diet and counting calories I make sure to feel fuelled for my training sessions, add lots of colour, lots of vegetables to create volume, drink plenty of fluid to stay hydrated plus it helps me feel fuller, stay prepared with my meals ready to go, swap some of my favourite meals/ treats to better options to suits my macro intake, follow up with my nutritionist on our weekly check ins to make sure weight is on track and energy levels whilst training are still high," she revealed in an Instagram post. 

Cherneka might fight, but she also loves to get her zen on with yoga. "I do love a good hot flow 🔥🧘🏽‍♀️My towel, my clothes are absolutely drenched come the end of class," she captioned a post. There is a laundry list of reasons to do yoga, explains Harvard Health. "Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood," they said. "People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating."

Cherneka also meditates and has a tab devoted to her practice on her Instagram Stories. "When you meditate, you may clear away the information overload that builds up every day and contributes to your stress," says the Mayo Clinic. Benefits include:
