World Record-Holding Stunner Sophie Grace Holmes in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Gym Session This Morning"

Sophie Grace Holmes is getting her sweat on in the morning – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the marathon runner shows off her svelte figure wearing a sports bra and leggings in a mirror selfie. “Gym session this morning,” she wrote across the Instagram Stories image. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


She Has Cystic Fibrosis

Sophie was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at four months old and was told she might not live past 16.“Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that affects your lungs and digestive system, inherited from birth - although I was actually diagnosed very late,” she told Women’s Health. She added to Strava that she ended up in the hospital at 19 and was told by doctors she "only had a couple of years to live,” she said. “I think this is where the power of naivety can sometimes kick in. I sat there in the hospital thinking ‘I don’t believe you. I don’t have time to die. There are all these things I want to do with my life.’”

Running "Saved My Life" She Says

“Running saved my life. If I hadn’t gone on my journey and decided to challenge myself through running in different ways, who knows whether or not I’d still be here today,” Sophie told Strava. “I believe fitness saved my life, because it’s given me experiences and memories, and it’s also shown me what I am capable of. My happiest times and my happiest memories have been the ones where I've been leaning into the most discomfort.”

Goal Setting

Sophie recently revealed that her goal for 2025 is to complete “12 challenges in 12 months,” she wrote in a post. “I thrive and love big challenges but next year is about being able to achieve smaller but just as significant goals throughout the year to fit into life and staying fit and strong simply say YES to anything. The main goal being I want to see how fast and strong of a runner I can become and add in some different types of adventure to take me back to the mountains, trying new things to push me out of my comfort zone and with few things set already and a dream race in place which I’ll talk about soon its turning into an incredible year. And Also the building blocks to get as strong as I can ready for the big challenge I want to do after…I love setting goals.”

Swimming

As part of her workout split, which she shared on Instagram, Sophie swims. “Weeks out from @newyorkcity_marathon,” she wrote. Why does she swim? “I swim for recovery and to reduce impact plus benefits for my engine and lungs for running,” she said in the post. She does two 30 minute swims per week. Swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity, according to the CDC. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well.

Hiking

Sophie loves to hike and mountain climb. She even summited Mount Kilimanjaro in 2015, two years after she was told she had years to live. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

  • Building stronger muscles and bones
  • Improving your sense of balance
  • Improving your heart health
  • Decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems

Steph Claire Smith is a fitness influencer, podcaster, and businesswoman. She is the founder of the Kic app and hosts the KICPOD podcast. Smith is expecting her second child and shared some of her favorite pregnancy exercises on Instagram. She captioned the post, “🤰💪 Pregnancy-friendly & beginner gym workout! Looking for a safe, effective, and beginner-friendly workout to keep you moving during pregnancy or if you’re just starting out? We’ve got you covered! 🌟”

Strength Trains

In her Instagram video, Smith is seen strength training. The Mayo Clinic states that strength training has a lot of benefits. “Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.”

She's Confident In Herself

Smith is all about being confident in herself. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “I can be a mum, a business woman, and a swimwear / lingerie model simultaneously. Here is a throwback for you of just a few examples of what I used to post in my feed. So why don’t I do it now? Please don’t for a second think it’s because I don’t think that I should or that I don’t feel sexy anymore.”

She Ignores The Haters

Keyboard,Keys,Form,The,Word,Haters,On,Red,Electric,CircuitShutterstock

Smith doesn’t let judgemental comments bring her down. She talked about this in the caption of the previous Instagram post. “I will admit, external judgment made me sway away from posting this kind of content in the past when it came to being taken seriously in the business world (even though I never really agreed with it)… and sure, there have been phases throughout motherhood where I haven’t felt super sexy or I’ve questioned what’s ’appropriate’. But where I’ve got to is realizing that what one person is comfortable with, can be completely different to someone else, and that I am very, very comfortable with tapping into I suppose ‘the old Steph’ … as really she’s just Steph. I’m still that person. And the only reason you don’t see this content as much on my page anymore is because I’m not doing anywhere near the amount of modeling I used to and when I am it’s not always this vibe anymore. But if I could I would! And the judgment I’ve copped from strangers, mainly women, over the last few weeks as I’ve shared my body online, has really disappointed me. HOWEVER, for the hundreds of you who have flooded in, particularly today after the hilarious ‘ass DM I got, saying they Iove seeing me so comfortable in my skin and that especially as mums it’s motivating you to do the same… you’re who I’ll keep doing it for. Do not let anyone dictate what you post on your own feed - if it feels true to you, you do you.”

She Sets Goals

Smith makes sure to push herself when she works out. One way she does this is by setting goals. Smith talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “There were many points throughout my workout today where I questioned if I should just stop right there and then and walk out. And if this was because of energy levels, I would have! I think it’s important to tune into our bodies like that… But I knew I had the energy, and I’ve committed to doing three sessions a week for this challenge. I just had to get out of my own head, and stop worrying about having to regress or rest, I took the pressure off of the workout needing to look a certain way and just kept at it. I’m so glad I got it done, and I’m proud of myself for sticking to my goal!”

She Does Pull-Ups

In the previous Instagram post, Smith is seen doing pull-ups. According to NASM, these have a lot of health benefits. “Pull ups and chin ups are a multi-joint movement, meaning that they engage multiple muscle groups (lats, biceps, shoulders, and upper back). They promote overall upper body muscle development and can lead to some serious strength gains.”

Squeezing in a full-body workout isn't as challenging these days since a 15-minute gym session can be just as effective as doing an hour of exercising depending on the intensity, and Sofia Richie is crushing the total-body quick workouts. On TikTok, the daughter of singer Lionel Richie showed off five moves that keep her tone that doesn’t take up too much of her busy schedule. And just this week, she shared a photo of her growing tummy, as she’s expecting a girl. “Morning from us” she captioned it. Read on for more details on her speedy session and what fitness experts think.


1. She Starts Her Morning Off With the Workout

Sofia.richie.Grainge.1Sofia Richie Grainge/Instagram

At the beginning of the clip, Richie explains she's at home with her certified fitness and pilates trainer Elizabeth Vidor and only has 15 minutes for a workout. “I wanted to start my day off on a positive note, so let’s do a quick little workout,” Richie said at the start of the video that's been viewed 9.6 million times.

What the Expert Says: M.A. Sports Performance and USAW National Coach Jarrod Nobbe says, "The best benefit of working out in the morning is to get things moving! I love a morning workout or mindful movement session filled with mobility to wake the body and mind up. He adds, "Hitting those early morning-released endorphins can increase your mood, focus, and energy throughout the day. Also, I love starting the day by checking the box on the to-do list; positive momentum toward daily progress!"

2. Jump Rope

Sofia.richie.Grainge.2Sofia Richie Grainge/TikTok

The newlywed started off her workout with jump roping. She did three sets for 15 seconds each.

What the Expert Says: According to Nobbe, "Using jump rope sequences before training is an excellent method to raise the body’s internal temperature and get the blood flowing. Use this in your warm-up before mobility and activation. Plan on implementing plyometrics in your session? Jumping rope is a great low-intensity plyometrics prep movement to prepare the ankles and lower body to be elastic and transfer energy for power!

3. Medicine Ball Front Slams

Sofia.richie.Grainge.3Sofia Richie Grainge/TikTok

Next up Richie does weighted medicine ball slams, where she picks it up off the floor in a squat and holds it above her head before throwing it down again. It's unclear how many reps she did.

What the Expert Says: Nobbe warns, "DISCLAIMER: Only perform this movement with sand-filled med balls! Med ball front slams are a great full-body power movement. When done correctly, you’ll engage your arms, core, and leg with each slam, driving the med ball through the floor. Keep the reps low to develop ballistic, full-body power improvements" He continues, "You can use slams in your cardio sessions as well. Extending tall at the top and flexing strong to slam the ball requires many body muscles, creating an incredible opportunity for aerobic work capacity."

4. Chest Press + Glute Bridge

Sofia.richie.Grainge.4Sofia Richie Grainge/TikTok

After the weighted medicine ball slams, the 24-year-old does chest presses with her hips up in a bridge position as she squeezes a pilates ring between her knees.

What the Expert Says: "This movement sneaks in the lower body, posterior strength (an isometric contraction of the glutes and hamstrings) paired with the upper body pressing strength of the chest press." Nobbe explains. "I love using this movement to develop your body’s stability and strength in this all-in-one exercise. You can get creative with dumbbells, kettlebells, or even bands to vary your training week-to-week. Press the implement alternatingly in a bilateral movement, or perform one side at a time to challenge your unilateral strength and core stability."

5. Supine Oblique Bends

Sofia.richie.Grainge.5Sofia Richie Grainge/TikTok

For the next round, Richie quickly goes into an ab exercise called supine oblique bends where she holds a weight and alternates touching each heel to work her sides.

What the Expert Says: "Finding enough variety to train the lateral aspects of the core can be challenging," Nobbe tells us. "Look no further if you’re looking for something other than your side plank variations. Oblique side bends are a go-to option, whether standing or in a supine position shown in this video. Keep the neck and head relaxed, exhale as you bend and contract the obliques, and inhale as you return. Implementing focused breathing can fire up the core muscles."

6. Mountain Climbers

Sofia.richie.Grainge.6Sofia Richie Grainge/TikTok

Richie finishes off her brief workout with mountain climbers. “A quick and effective 15-minute workout” she captioned the TikTok.

What the Expert Says: Nobbe states, "Mountain climbers might be one of the best core exercises performed dynamically to build core strength, stability, and endurance. We want to ensure we conquer the primary plank position, bracing the core tight as we drive each knee alternating to the same-side elbow. Add them to your core routine, or implement them during a HIIT-style workout or circuit day. If used as a finisher, I would challenge you to move quickly but stay braced and tight to maintain the efficacy of the movement."

Grace Beverley is exercising – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post the influencer flaunts her amazing figure in a two-piece workout set in a mirror selfie. “Spot the girl obsessed with her own business,” she captioned the Instagram Stories image. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Breakfast

Grace starts the day with a big breakfast. “I’m not a huge breakfast person in the week, but at the weekends my go-to has been the same for over a decade now: creamy mushrooms on toast,” she told Women’s Health. “My fiancé uses the Oatly cream to make it for us every weekend and it’s definitely one of the reasons I’m marrying him! It’s just the ultimate weekend “breakfast and it feels like such a treat without spiking my blood sugar too much.”

Coffee

Grace is a coffee drinker. “My go-to coffee order is an iced oat latte. Although I’m trying to cut down and now have a strict ‘no coffee after 12pm’ rule that I make the team hold me accountable to when I don’t have the willpower,” she said.

Greens Powder

“I used to take a whole load of supplements but I got fed up with spending so much each month and taking so many pills. That’s why I turned to the Shreddy team with the idea of developing a greens powder that did the job of all my supplements in one. I remember in that first meeting we thought it might not be possible, but a year (and 30 samples) later one glass of Shreddy Supergreens contains 100% NRV of my daily vitamins, pre & pro-biotics and all the vitamins and minerals I was already taking for hair and skin growth. As someone who’s all about efficiency, it’s my dream multi-tasking supplement. I drink it in the afternoon instead of my coffee and it really helps me avoid that mid-afternoon crash I always used to get,” Grace told Women’s Health.

Sleep

Grace prioritizes her sleep. “I wear an Oura ring to track my sleep, so I know how far to push myself on a particular day as my schedule is usually pretty back-to-back. It usually knows when I’m getting run down before I do,” she told Women’s Health. “I try my absolute best to get 8 hours of sleep a night, after years of trying to push it, I now know that 8 hours is what I need to be good at my job and maintain my schedule across a week. When heading to bed, I make sure to read at least 10 pages of a fiction book. I find it really helps me to separate my brain from work mode and improves the quality of my sleep as a whole.”

HIIT Workouts

Grace sticks to short but effective workouts.”When I moved to London, I struggled to fit everything in and barely worked out at all. It sounds like a scammy email, but the ‘simple trick’ that changed my life was switching to just 10 or 20-minute workouts – it’s great for my mental health and fitness, but short enough that I never get bored,” she told Women’s Health. “That’s what inspired me to create the Shreddy 102 and Shreddy 202 HIIT guides. I now do one of those workouts four days a week, as well as two weight- lifting sessions – I’m lucky enough to have a home gym.”

Track Athlete Eilish McColgan Has One of Her "Best Sessions"

From running marathons to pool exercises, she does it all!

Eilish McColgan is a successful track athlete. She has won a gold and a silver medal at the Commonwealth Games, two silvers and a bronze at the European Championships, and a bronze at the European Indoor Championships. McColgan recently shared a set of photos on Instagram of herself running. She captioned it, “A very good day at the oval office! 🔥💪Surprised myself yesterday with one of my best sessions in months... AND on day 1 of my cycle.”

She Runs

Running is one of the things that McColgan does to keep herself in shape. She shared this post on Instagram of herself running a marathon. She captioned it, “Last race of 2024 in the bag! 💰 (Race recap) Battled for 4th place today in what was by far the toughest race I've ever done! It took a LOT of mental strength to finish, with my legs hitting a brick wall around 18km... but it helped that I was catching and passing some of the other elite women who had started to suffer, too! Delhi was hit with a huge spike in humidity and pollution levels in the days leading into the race. The air was SO thick. Never experienced anything quite like it! 🤣 Breathing was already hard through the first 5km, which made it a long slog to the finish line. 🫁I decided very early on I was going to run on my own and at my own pace, letting the main pack go ahead. Trying to pick off as many people as I could over the 2nd half. I think someone said I was around 10th at halfway, but in all honesty, I didn't have a clue. I just kept trying to catch and pass the next person. I was actually pretty gutted to find out I was only a few seconds off the podium in the end!”

She Does Activation Exercises

McColgan shared some of her favorite activation exercises in this Instagram video. In it, she is seen doing things with resistance bands and exercises like pogo jumps and step ups. McColgan captioned it, “Here's some of my favourite activation exercises for endurance runners 🏋🏼♀️The winter months tend to be heavily focused on longer, slower endurance work, so I like to throw in some activation & conditioning work the evening before key interval sessions. 🔑It helps to keep my fast twitch muscles firing and stops me from getting too sluggish and heavy legged from all the additional running. 🏃🏼♀️💨”

She Hikes

McColgan likes to hike to keep herself in shape. She shared this post on Instagram of herself hiking in Vietnam. McColgan captioned it, “What a day in HaLong Bay! 😍🫶After eating our way around Hanoi, we headed out to 'sea' the sights... 😜Vietnam so far has been a dream. Can't believe we've waited this long to visit - it's certainly lived up to the hype!! 🇻🇳”

She Does Pool Exercises

McColgan likes to do pool exercises. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing things like high knees and squats in the water. McColgan captioned it, “Not your typical pool day! 😜 🏊♀️👙Training is a little different at the moment... Instead of running, we are spending time in the gym building strength and addressing weakness on my left side. The goal with rehab is to progress things gradually every week, and this pool session does just that - keeping my ligaments and tendons moving. I'll try to share more of my rehab videos over the next few weeks! 💪”

She Pushes Herself

McColgan makes sure to push herself when she trains. She talked about this in the caption of her Instagram post. “Female athletes have it touuuuugh.. so this is literally my biggest win of the year, as usually I run (and feel) absolutely pants. 💩But despite my legs feeling like two bricks, I somehow muscled out sub 5min mile pace (3:05km) for my final 2mile rep. Ooft it hurt. (And I've been on the sofa ever since! 😅).”

Ana Zelu is a professional model and social media influencer. She is known for her content in nature. Zelu recently shared a post on Instagram of herself on a surfboard in the ocean. She captioned it, “Yesterday was such a fun shoot, I just had to share these with you 🤍 🛥️But picture number #4?? That photobomb totally got me 😂 Which picture is your favorite ?🌊”

She Swims

As you can see from her post, Zelu likes to swim. The Mayo Clinic states that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming is often touted as a great workout for all ages, offering benefits not only for the body, but also for the mind. As a form of exercise, swimming keeps your heart rate up and builds muscle strength. It also can be a great form of stress relief.”

She Doesn't Compare Herself to Others

Zelu shares a lot of her thoughts on Instagram. In this post, she talked about no longer comparing herself to others. “Dear Diary 💭📝, Today’s contemplation led me to a profound understanding of the detrimental impact comparison has on our lives. It’s like a silent intruder, subtly creeping into our thoughts and poisoning our perception of ourselves and others. It’s a universal struggle, one that weighs heavily on the hearts of many. I’ve come to realize that comparison is the ultimate thief of joy. It robs us of our ability to appreciate our own journey and achievements, as we constantly measure ourselves against an idealized version of others. I’ve resolved to break free from its grasp. We should choose to celebrate our own unique path, recognizing that each step forward is a triumph in itself. Rather than fixating on external benchmarks set by others, I’m focusing on personal growth and development. Whether it’s through learning new skills, cultivating gratitude, or simply practicing self-compassion, every effort counts.”

She Hikes

Zelu is seen on a hike in the previous Instagram post. Harvard Health states that hiking is very beneficial. “Like brisk walking, hiking is a good way to improve your cardiovascular fitness, particularly if your route includes some hills, which will force your heart to work harder. Taking a hike on the slightly uneven surface of a trail also provides a natural way to engage the core muscles in your torso and to hone your balance skills.”

She’s Resilient

Resilience is another important thing to Zelu. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “Dear Diary 💭📝, I witnessed something truly remarkable that touched my heart deeply. It’s amazing how people can go through the toughest storms in life and yet remain gentle, patient, and kind. I saw someone who faced challenges that would break most people, yet they chose to respond with grace and humility. Their ability to stay calm and compassionate in the face of adversity is nothing short of admirable. It made me realize the beauty of resilience – the strength to keep going even when life throws its hardest punches. These individuals not only endure the storms but also emerge from them with a spirit that shines brighter than before. Their example reminds me of the power of kindness and the importance of staying true to oneself, even in the darkest of times. It’s a reminder that even in the midst of chaos, there is beauty to be found 💕🫶”

She’s Accepted Herself

Zelu talked about the importance of acceptance in this Instagram post’s caption. “Dear Diary 💭📝, Today has been a rollercoaster of emotions, but amidst it all, I feel like I’ve taken a step closer to the right direction. Letting go of the past is like shedding a heavy coat I’ve been carrying for far too long. It’s not easy to release the memories, the pain, the regrets, but today, I made a choice to loosen the grip they had on me. It’s like taking a deep breath after being underwater for too long—refreshing and liberating. Forgiving myself has been a journey filled with tears and moments of self-doubt. But today, I finally understood that I deserve the same forgiveness and understanding I give to others. It’s like giving myself a warm hug, wrapping myself in kindness and acceptance.”

The pedaling action can help strengthen your calves, hamstrings, and quadriceps. Additionally, it can work the muscles in your core, back, and glutes. If you use a bicycle with handles, you’ll also be able to work your upper body muscles, including your biceps, triceps, and shoulders.”

She Runs

Viciconte shared this Instagram video of herself working out. In it, she is seen doing running exercises. Viciconte captioned it, “When we exercise, our body releases endorphin, a natural substance produced by the brain during and after physical activity. The release of endorphin, also known as the 'joy hormone', helps you relax, reduces stress, anxiety and improves your mood. I always say that it's never too late to start moving, so you know that tomorrow you have no excuse 💪🏻”
