The former reality TV star Paola Mayfield has taken up Brazlian Jiu-Jitsu alongside her husband Russ Mayfield. The gym is not world famous, but is known to be a Carlos Machado affiliate, so there is no doubt in it’s legitimacy.
Whilst Paola was largely known for her on screen personality, she has wasted no time since the series of 90-day fiance ended and has set up her own fitness website, as well as amassing over 1 million instagram followers. The proof of her physical transformation can be seen in her pictures. She was never massively out of shape but has become a lot more healthy, lean and conditioned.
The Colombian beauty was seen training in a white kimono whilst applying a guillotine choke from closed guard. She claimed in the instagram post that this is her new beginning and that she will never stop learning.
When asked about whether her son will be training BJJ anytime soon, she replied “he will be training as soon as he has the age for it” and added “it’s crucial for our kids to learn self defense”.
