She’s one hot mama who was once the ultimate fantasy of the men of the 90’s generation. To this day, Ina Raymundo remains undeniably desirable. What’s more, she stands as a fitness inspiration to anyone who wants to achieve a body like hers.
In her recent interview with Dyan Castillejo for ABS-CBN’s TV Patrol, the iconic Sabado Nights girl shared how she was able to maintain her rockin’ physique despite being a mom of five.
She first credits her inspiration to be fit to her husband.
“Nakapag-asawa ako ng napaka-fit. ‘Yung Canadian ko na asawa, so siya yung ‘fitspiration’ ko saka ikaw [talking about fellow fitness advocate Dyan Castillejo]. Nag-start ako mag-work out after having may first child, kasi I gained so much weight. Saka ‘dun ko naisip na kailangan ko na talaga magbago ng lifestyle,” she said.
(I was able to marry someone who’s super fit. My Canadian husband, he’s my ‘fitspiration’ and you as well. I started working out when I had my first child because I gained so much weight. It was then that I thought I had to have a change in lifestyle.)
Besides her strenuous workouts, the gorgeous actress marries proper diet into her fitness routine.
“I just eat healthy na gulay ‘di ba, fish, chicken. Kumbaga achievable ‘yun ‘di ba. Kahit sino pwede kumain n’un ‘di ba?” she said.
(I just eat healthy food, like vegetables, fish and chicken. It’s achievable. Anyone can eat simple food like those.)
She also has a tip for mommies and fitness advocates like her, “Kailangan kausapin mo ‘yung sarili mo, kailangan mo mag-commit. Kailangan meron kang disiplina.”
(You need to talk to yourself, you need to commit. You need to have discipline.)
She may be in her mid-life right now, but the bombshell sure looks and feels young.
“I’m 41 years old. Yes, I am proud, and I have the energy of a 21-year old,” she said.
Besides her adorable family and enlivening showbiz career, her Instagram feed is filled with fitness routines she does to keep her svelte figure. She has recently posed for FHM magazine’s 17th anniversary issue.
Raymundo has also recently revived her iconic 90’s Sabado Nights ad for a beer brand and stars in TV5’s “Tsinoy”. JB
