Olly Murs reveals his girlfriend Amelia is his personal trainer as he credits her for huge weight loss
OLLY Murs has revealed his girlfriend Amelia Tank is his very own "personal trainer".
The 35-year-old Voice judge - who began dating bodybuilder Amelia last January - credited his recent weight loss to her "brilliant" encouragement and nutrition plan.
Olly talked about his girlfriend's help while discussing his trimmed-down physique on
He explained: "She’s not a personal trainer but she’s done bikini competitions in the past and she does train a lot, but she is actually my personal trainer."
Olly joked, "In more ways than one, " before adding in a more serious tone: "She’s brilliant and she’s been absolutely fantastic.
"She just gave me that extra little bit of encouragement and she says, 'it’s not up to me to do it, you’ve got to be able to do it yourself. You’ve got to get up to do it everyday.' So I was like, 'okay I will.'"
The Wrapped Up singer went on: "So she did this little nutritional plan for me and I just went out and did it and I loved it. And I still love it now."
Olly unveiled the results of his fitness and diet overhaul in a before and after snap showing the progress he'd made in just eight weeks.
He explained that while he enjoyed looking better, it was more about changing his mindset, as he'd become "grumpy" and "not himself".
"You know what, I did it all just for my mind. It was nothing to do with looking great," the Troublemaker singer said.
"I mean, I know it’s nice to post some like that, but it was more just to show people you can do it if you put your mind to it and I genuinely, I just feel great.
"I was too overweight, I was grumpy and I wasn’t myself and I thought 'why was this' and I thought 'this is because I wasn’t training enough and not feeling good in myself', so I went to the gym, got myself fit and I feel great now."
He showed off his body transformation last month, telling followers: "Ain’t bad for 35yr old! My ambition to be a “butler in the buff” is coming true.
“The pic on the left was 2nd January! I was like 'f**k me I look massive' weight was doing me no favours, grumpy, no energy, sleeping was awful so I made some adjustments."
He began dating City worker and former bodybuilding champ Amelia last January and got very serious with over the summer.
He previously gushed that the 27-year-old is "amazing" and his "best friend".
