Asian Games up next for Jiu-jitsu fighter Ochoa

Three women champions bared there are no shortcuts to their success.  They work and train hard to be where they are now.

Margarita Ochoa, jiu-jitsu gold medalist in the recent Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games (Aimag) held in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, said her training regimen is like no other.

“My fitness routines are really hard and I work out everyday,” said Ochoa, who beat her Vietnamese foe in the women’s Ne-waza -45kg division event.

“Overwhelming,” said Ochoa of her victory. “Right from the beginning, we had to hurdle a lot of difficulties.  I’m just so grateful to God and the entire Philippine team.”

Ochoa also bagged gold in the Asian Beach Games in Vietnam. Now, she is looking at the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta, Indonesia.
