Carol Vorderman revealed she does 20,000 squats a year to maintain her enviable curves.
Speaking on Lorraine, Carol said that hiking twice a week, sometimes up to 26 miles in the Brecon Beacons, and doing 20,000 squats a year have helped her maintain her figure.
The 58-year-old also spoke candidly about how the menopause changed her figure - but said she hadn't weighed herself for 20 years.
Carol admitted : “I haven’t weighed myself since 1999. I don’t actually know how much I weigh and I don’t care because I go on my dress size, thank god for lycra.
"I’m probably about a size 8 to 9 at the moment. I’ve always had a small waist, I think I’m about 25 inches around my waist.
"If I put on a bit of weight, I know I have, I go up to a size 11. A larger size 10, that’s kind of my boundary for where I’m happy.”
Carol said she had started eating well around 39 or 40, as she became conscious of needing to be healthy for her children.
The TV star said: “In terms of squats, or the equivalent of squats, I probably do over 20,000 a year... that's a lot."
On her body changing over the years, she said: “As you go through the menopause things change. I had what’s called a mirena coil. I put on a stone in two weeks.
"It gives off hormones as well, so I had it removed and it took me a year to lose the weight. I went through this terrible hormonal depression, and I don’t use that word lightly, it really was awful.”
Carol said she is now using bio-identical gels, and added: “Wow has that changed everything! I’ve noticed my skin has improved, my shape has changed, things have grown significantly, and that I know is linked to that. Your shape changes.”
