Who's that girl? Jodie Marsh showed off her amazing new look at a bodybuilding championships after just eight weeks of training


She was once famous for her curves, making a name for herself as one of the country's foremost glamour models.

And now Jodie Marsh's body is making the headlines once again - but for very different reasons.

The 32-year-old star was seen showing off her muscular new body as she entered the Natural Physique Association (NPA) Mike Williams Classic and Pro-Am Bodybuilding Championships last month.

Buff: The 32-year-old former glamour model has gone from a size 10 to a size six, and from 25 per cent body fat to 10 per cent body fat


Jodie looks completely unrecognisable after undertaking a gruelling diet and exercise regime which has seen her go from a size 10 to a tiny size six.

Talking about her new figure, Jodie said: 'This is the best I’ve ever felt, and the best my body has ever felt too.

'In just 50 days I have gone from 25 per cent body fat to 10 per cent body fat, gained 8 pounds of muscle, and lost 20 pounds of fat. In 8 weeks I have achieved what normally takes 6 to 9 months.'

And Jodie's new body, honed by personal trainer Tim Sharp, saw her come in fifth position in the world-famous championships in Sheffield.

She said: 'I’m really happy I’m going home with a trophy. If I can do this in eight weeks, competing against the best of the best in the UK, then what else can I achieve with more training time?

'I’m 100 per cent confident that if I had more time to train I could have placed in the top three and go through to finals. We’ll have to see what happens next year!'

Strict: The glamour model has been sticking to an intense diet and exercise regime to get in shape for the contest


Under the guidance of Sharp, Jodie's eight-week regime saw her sticking to an incredibly strict diet, as well as cutting out nightclubs and all alcohol.

Former Celebrity Big Brother contestant Jodie revealed last year she had started bodybuilding and was hoping to enter the competition this year.

She said: 'I started training with a personal trainer called Tim Sharp last December in my local gym.

'At first, I just wanted to lose weight and tone up - I was soft all over. But within two weeks, I had definition in my stomach.

'As I saw my body changing, I really liked my muscles and as Tim is a bodybuilder, it just went from there. I feel a million dollars.

'I feel proud of myself. I've always been confident, but I've had moments where I haven't wanted people to see me naked.'
