How To Stay Fit In Lockdown

If you're looking for ways to keep fit during the COVID-19 restrictions, who better to learn from than three-time Olympian and World Champion Irish athlete Derval O'Rourke? Derval enjoyed a successful 14-year career as a professional track athlete, running sprint hurdles. Since retiring, she has been a coach on Ireland's Fittest Family and launched the healthy lifestyle site Derval.ie, which covers topics such as fitness, nutrition, Pilates, pregnancy exercise and self-care. She is now giving everyone a seven-day free trial, as well as free three-month memberships to frontline staff fighting the coronavirus. Derval joined us on The Last Word to discuss some of her health and fitness strategies. Listen to the interview in full by pressing the play button on this page.
