Baseball fans cherish the legacy of Alex Rodriguez for his spectacular sportsmanship while playing for the Seattle Mariners, Texas Rangers, and New York Yankees. On the other hand, Hollywood fans know him for his romantic relationship with the Hispanic diva Jennifer Lopez. Now, the 48-year-old sports icon is in the news for his radical weight transformation.

Despite having a phenomenal athletic career, the Yankees icon struggled with weight issues. But that was a thing of the past, as he credited his new partner for helping him with his fitness goals.

Alex Rodriguez’s fitness secret lies with his partner

The struggle to shed those extra pounds is real, as the weight-loss journey requires discipline and consistency. And the motivation to be fit is the key, and it can come from within or outside. In the case of the baseball champion, it came from his girlfriend, Jaclyn Cordeiro.

Rodriguez started dating the fitness coach a year ago after her split from Hollywood sensation Jennifer Lopez in 2021. Speaking about Cordeiro to US Weekly adding value to his life, the 48-year-old confessed, “Look, she’s been incredible for me and for Cynthia.” To the unversed, Cynthia Scurtis is A-Rod’s ex-wife, with whom he co-parents his two daughters.

The former athlete also confessed that he lost “32 pounds” after following Cordeiro’s “JacFit” program. A-Rod attributed her early nursing career to his girlfriend’s caring attitude. “She’s used to taking care of people that are sick,” he told in a candid chitchat with Us Weekly. While Rodriguez is spending merry times with Cordeiro, he hit a personal low when his five-year relationship with Jennifer Lopez came to an end in 2021.

Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez’s relationship

The baseball champion has been vocal about women in his life while appreciating their roles. Praising former fiancee Jennifer Lopez, A-Rod called her a “powerhouse.” ” I’ve never met anyone who has the work ethic, the vision, the principles that Jennifer possesses,” he stated in the Human Capital Newsletter.

Jennifer Lopez also shared her affection for Rodriguez during their courtship on social media. The couple who broke their engagement in 2021 also nurtured their kids together during their courtship. Unfortunately, they didn’t walk the aisle, and Lopez went on to marry Ben Affleck while Rodriguez found love in Cordeiro.
