Sitting Squat Challenge: Michelle Keegan

We had another one of our friends take part in our Fad Free GMB diet and fitness plan. The wonderful Michelle Keegan came suited and booted to put her leg muscles to the test!

Despite having an empty stomach the 'Tina and Bobby' star did superbly and battled through the pain to complete the squat challenge in a very respectable time!
