CAROL Vorderman has revealed the intense workout regime responsible for her celebrated bum.
The star, 58, shared her gym secrets on Twitter after mesmerising fans with her hourglass figure in recent snaps.
A lot of people asking so here is my little home exercises…I want to be able to do a handstand and a cartwheel this year for the first time in my life ❤️ thank you Victoria ans @juicemaster for this. Also walk about 7 miles a day and 3 circuits a week ?? pic.twitter.com/BO4MEJMSN0
After insisting her body is 100 per cent natural, Carol shared the programme behind her look; alternating lower and upper body days with additional core exercises factored in.
Her lower body workout consists of goblet squats, forward lunges and glute raises with burpees in between exercises if she's feeling up to it.
To craft a strong core she does leg raises, side oblique dumbbell raises with glute raises, reverse crunches and a plank as extras.
The upper body day consists of shoulder press pyramids and frontal deltoid raises.

Today Carol revealed that her libido is sky-high after reaching the age of 58.
The curvy TV legend admits that she has a "number of special friends" that are all younger than her and often gets up to "mischief".
The former Countdown presenter credited the HRT doses that she takes to combat the menopause with putting a spring back in her step.
She is running on double the amount of testosterone and has increased her oestrogen by 50 per cent and doesn't have one boyfriend and is instead enjoying her freedom.
"I get up to a lot of mischief. I have a number of special friends but I’m not doing anything wrong. Everyone’s single," she told the Daily Mail.
"And yes, apart from one, they’re all younger than me. I don’t want to settle down. I’m enjoying my freedom."
But she won't name names, explaining: "I’ll have broken the code. I never mention them, and they don’t talk about me. If I told you who they were, I’d have to kill you!"
Carol raised her two children – Katie, 26, and Cameron , 22, both students – from her second marriage to Patrick King.
She also cared for her mum full-time until she died two years ago.
"I hate the phrase 'me time', but it’s the first time in my life I haven’t been looking after anyone, and I intend to enjoy every minute," she said.
Just days ago, Carol denied having plastic surgery or wearing bum pads to achieve her age-defying curves and insists she's the "same old Vorders".
The TV legend won Rear of the Year award in 2011 and 2014 but has now modestly said that her bum was "not news" as she has "always had a huge a***."
She blamed the high-waisted jeggings for accentuating her bottom and revealed that as "knickers dig into my big bum" she often goes "commando".
"I promise I haven’t had bottom implants… I’ve been working out for decades, so the shape of mine is down to years of keeping fit," she told the Mail Online.
