Spring is approaching and thinking about wearing those short shorts might seem improbable at the moment. But there are a few tried and tested exercises that will whip you into shape ASAP.
Kettlebell swings burn so many calories and are so good at toning the core, glutes and legs. Try 50 swings and do these 3 times through.
To tone the upper body such as the shoulders as well as the core, push-ups while balancing your hands on the Kettlebells with a row pack a punch. Try 10 on each side and do 3 times through.
Who's looking to get away after being cooped up for so long during the Pandemic? Who needs to train with other awesome ladies, recharge, focus on health, fitness and nutrition to feel amazing? Who would like to start the day with morning sunrise yoga, be a part of some amazing mindfulness and empowerment workshops?

Sophia McDermott Jiu Jitsu TImes
This week I had an epic interview for Jiu-Jitsu Times. It was yet another opportunity to speak up about leading the way as a head professor and a career woman in a male dominated sport. I address subjects in a daring and possibly contentious way about the empowered woman in touch with her feminine power and all the while unapologetically owning it in a man's world. I also talk about my women’s online program www.girls-ontop.com and my Lifestyle Camp seminars and events to help bring women together and empower them through women’s specific learning and activities.

Some more photos from my interview with Jiujiteira Magazine. The photos in this article cover all aspects of who I am as the BJJ athlete AND that woman standing in her feminine power. Ladies, yes we can BE both. Lets’ embrace that side as the athlete but also the beautiful woman. They can go hand in hand.
