When Ronda Rousey is training for a fight, it's a given that she's spending a lot of time in the gym. But does it surprise you to find out that she's also hanging out in the bedroom, too? And she's not sleeping either! When asked whether or not she's the type of fighter who abstains from sex in the weeks before a big match to conserve energy, Ronda's answer was quite the opposite. "For girls it [sex] raises your testosterone, so I try to have as much sex as possible before I fight."

Before you let your mind wander, Ronda assured viewers that she only puts this into practice if she has a boyfriend. "I don't put out Craigslist ads or anything," she laughed.
