Former New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez's girlfriend, Jaclyn Cordeiro, a fitness model/instructor by trade, often shares pictures for fans on social media.
Despite her busy schedule, Cordeiro makes it a point to never skip the gym and regularly shares photos and videos of her workouts via stories and posts on her profile to inspire her followers. When her clients tag her in their own workout stories, Jaclyn displays them on her profile as well, often captioning them 'Client Love'.
On Friday, Cordeiro shared stories of two such clients, as fitness lovers celebrated 'Flex Friday'. She also shared a motivational quote from NBA legend Michael Jordan.
"When a child is learning how to walk and falls down 90 times, they never think to themselves: Maybe this ain't for me - Michael Jordan," the quote shared to Jaclyn Cordeiro's story read.
Originally hailing from Windsor in Canada, Cordeiro holds a Bachelor of Science degree and honors in nursing from the University of Windsor, before she discovered her passion for fitness and became a professional trainer. She introduced JACFIT, a six-week program that helps with fat loss.
How Jaclyn Cordeiro's know-how helped Alex Rodriguez shed the pounds post-retirement
Shortly after his split from Jennifer Lopez, Alex Rodriguez met Jaclyn Cordeiro. As A-Rod had gained some weight since his retirement from baseball in 2016, her expertise proved quite handy for him. The former Yankees shortstop spoke about Cordeiro in an interview with the New York Post last year:
“What I love about what she’s done in JacFit and the amount of people that she’s influenced and the reaction that I see from people to her, it’s really mind-blowing.”
Jaclyn helped Alex get back to a fixed plan in the gym and helped improve his eating habits. She also reintroduced cardio into his day-to-day schedule, adding frequent walks throughout the day, which led to Rodriguez losing a stunning 32 pounds.
With the couple sharing similar interests and helping each other grow, it seems they have found the perfect match in each other.
