jodie marsh: bodybuilder

A unique and unlikely insight into the extraordinary world of natural female bodybuilding though the eyes of glamour model Jodie Marsh, as she goes from men’s mag lovely to ripped bodybuilding champion …  in just eight weeks.  Jodie Marsh: Bodybuilder is DMAX’s highest ever rating show, and follows the star on a gruelling two month personal journey to pump iron and participate in a natural bodybuilding competition. 

 

To do this the former party girl cut out the clubs and the alcohol and embarked on a strict low calorie, high protein diet to reveal just what lengths these competitors go through to get in shape. Jodie’s gruelling gym regime involved training eight hours a day, seven days a week, eating half her recommended daily allowance of calories, ripping every muscle in her body, getting her body fat down from 24% to just 10% and eating 17 carbohydrate heavy meals in the space of 30 hours – while still finding time for an unlikely romance with a fellow bodybuilder.
