Amanda Holden wears neon Lycra as she joins Mr Motivator for hilarious workout on-air

Gym hater Amanda Holden worked up a sweat as she matched Lycra with Mr Motivator as they performed a Monday morning workout.

The pair really went for it as they decided to welcome in the week with a high-energy start.

Mr Motivator, whose real name is Derrick Evans, was a staple of daytime TV in the 1990s and he took his skills to the radio.

Listeners got an earful of panting as Amanda agreed to the frantic start to her week.

The three-minute workout made her feel great as they let go to David Guetta mega-hit Titanium.

The keep fit session was also broadcast live on social media for the world to watch - and they saw the star not holding back.

But if you expect this to become a regular thing in her life, don't hold your breath.

Amanda doesn't go to the gym - and isn't planning on starting up any time soon.

"You have to enjoy life," she explained. "I eat everything. Drink everything.

"I had a friend once who didn’t make it to her 50s and her biggest regret was she spent her life on a diet. I don't diet.

"I like to keep active," she said to the MailOnline. "But I can't stand gyms. I like to run for an hour a week, as I feel great afterwards. It's also time to myself, which is worth its weight in gold."

Amanda sent temperatures soaring as she transformed herself into sexy pilot on Friday.

She strutted up and down the corridor at the radio offices in her navy-blue uniform, which included a double-breasted dress falling just above Amanda’s knees to show off her endless legs.

In true airline-style, Amanda’s outfit also included four stripes at each sleeve and pilot wing emblem over the left pocket, with a name badge sitting opposite.

She finished off the ensemble with a peaked navy pilot’s hat with similar emblems, and a pair of black ballet pumps featuring pointed-toes.

Of course, the star performed an in-flight safety demonstration, directing passengers to the nearest emergency exit doors.

Captioning the slow-motion clip on Instagram, Amanda cheekily wrote: "Doors to Mandy… ready for take off!"

Her Heart FM co-star and Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts posted: "All aboard!"
