Her day begins around 5.30am with cardio, then a full day's work as an IT Project Manager. Then its back to gym for evening training around 7pm and gets home around 9pm to prepare food for the next day. Then it starts all over again tomorrow. Sound familiar to many athletes we're sure!

In this update we find out how Yoko's feeling as she approaches her Pro debut and how she's using her new found Pro status to help her find another level in training.
