Paddy Doherty to release an exercise DVD

Celebrity Big Brother star Paddy Doherty is reportedly to release a fitness DVD.

Celebrity Big Brother star Paddy Doherty is reportedly to release a fitness DVD.

The 53-year-old, who drinks up to 25 pints a day, is hoping to take on Davina McCall and Amy Childs in the workout market.

The bare-knuckle fighter rose to fame in the reality show Big Fat Gypsy Wedding.

He started his training for the DVD by shedding 10lbs at bootcamp last weekend.

Paddy even managed to do without alcohol for two days and went from 13st 12lb to 13st 2lb.

He is considering an offer from fellow Celebrity Big Brother star Sally Bercow to do the DVD together.

He told the Daily Star: "It would be good to do something that couples can work out together to.

"There is nothing out there for a man and his woman to do together. I'm not sure about wearing any of that Lycra nonsense, though."

Paddy went to the 'No Carbs Before Marbs' bootcamp in Essex and admitted that it was a challenge.

He was banned from drinks all weekend, had to eat healthy salads, and undertake strenuous exercise.

He joked with the rest of participants at bootcamp: "I'm walking like John Wayne, the workouts have been so tough."

The bootcamp is run by former Only Way Is Essex star Ellie Redman, who came up with the 'No Carbs Before Marbs' catchphrase.

Paddy's spokeswoman said: "He would love to film a fitness video for couples, so watch this space."
