In a video posted on Instagram, he was captured working up a sweat in the gym, doing pull-ups, boxing, cycling, and lifting weights.
His T-shirt discarded, Olly proudly boasted a toned abdomen and bulging biceps, looking much more 'shredded' than he did 12 weeks ago.
His nutritionist, Greg, also posted a side-by-side of Olly's progress, having captured his body pre-training plan and after three months of healthy eating and 'discipline'.
The caption read: '12 weeks to shredded and pumped!!
'What a privilege to work with @ollymurs , super talented but more so super disciplined in every aspect of his life.
'This was such a great journey and on to the tour we go fuelling him whilst he entertain the world [sic]'.
Expressing his gratitude, Olly added in the comments: ''You can't out train a diet' consistency is key 🔑 in every department! Greg is the man!! 💪🏻'

'OMG that's fantastic 👏', praised @sniktaw71.
'Epic transformation 👏', declared @jbardsley85.

'And there were no shortcuts here… just discipline, hard work and training like a beast.

His image transformation comes after Olly reflected on the first few weeks of Amelia's second pregnancy.
Chatting to buddy Mark Wright on their Heart Radio show, he said on Saturday: 'Mate, it's been… You know when you have those weeks where you just can't tell anyone?
'It's been really exciting news for us both. A shock. We didn't expect it to happen this quick, but [it's] just amazing. We just want to grow our little family.'
Olly and bodybuilder Amelia first met while going to the same gym and tied the knot in 2023.

Ex-England international wants more female role models in sport
Telford, from County Durham, achieved 27 caps in an England shirt and appeared in three FA Cup finals with Leeds United, Chelsea and Notts County. She lacked visible representation during her youth but since taking on her post-playing role working at Chelsea Women as a Commercial Manager, she can see new opportunities for young girls. 'I basically didn't have any female role models until I was a lot older,' she said. 'If I was asked that question as a youngster, I would have said David Beckham or David Ginola. 'I was in a school last week, and we were doing the trophy tour for the FA Cup. I sat down next to a group of girls, and I said, 'Oh, who are your role models?' and they said Sam Kerr, Millie Bright, Lauren James and that is just so normal for them. 'To see them writing their names down, wishing them good luck, it's just so inspiring for them to be like, I see myself in her, or I want to be like her one day.' A study by Sure in 2024 found that 58% of girls say that having a female role model strengthens their passion for football. Telford, who was part of a panel discussing the issue at Stamford Bridge this week, has been able to become the role model for others that she never had, spending eight years at WSL heavyweights Chelsea during her career. 'It's mad. I sometimes forget it, until someone's like, 'Can you sign my T-shirt? Can you sign my boot?','' she said. 'It's almost like a responsibility as well in the best kind of way. I didn't want to be a footballer for any other reason, I just loved it. I genuinely do. If you ask most of the girls who play the game, it's all for the love of it. 'The responsibility that comes with that is to always turn up as who you are, because there's always going to be a young girl, a group of girls that will be like, 'Oh, I sound like her, I look like her, I play the position she does.' 'Not all of us have a smooth journey. Just because when you get to the top, it looks like it's all great, and Instagram and TikTok can make it look all fun, actually it's a difficult role. 'There's a lot of rejection, sometimes confidence is low, you're not selected. There's a lot of things that you have to deal with but that also helps you prepare for life outside.' For Telford, that authenticity is key in allowing girls to connect with players and create role models who speak to wider aspects of life beyond elite football. 'Role models should allow girls to aspire to be Lionesses and want to be the best of the best, but also empower them to feel confident, to feel like they can do it, and that gives them life skills in the longer term as well,' she added. Visibility plays a vital role in inspiring young girls in sports, but it alone isn't enough. Increased visibility needs to be paired with real world grassroots investment – like Sure's Breaking Limits Programme – find out more here

Beyonce fans camp in tents outside Tottenham Stadium ahead of Cowboy Carter tour
Beyoncé's performances at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium kick off tonight – and fans have been camping out all day in preparation. The Grammy Award-winning musician will perform six shows at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium starting on June 5. The dates are her first UK shows since her Renaissance World Tour in 2023. After tonight, Beyoncé will go on to perform on June 7, 10, 12, 14, and 16, following a string of dates across America, where she will perform tracks from her eighth studio album. While the stadium is set to open its doors to 62,000 fans shortly, some are worried about the rainy conditions. Others are metaphorically and literally preparing to dance in the rain, with many fans literally camping out in preparation. A TikTok posted by user Paolatravell shows countless fans in tents around the venue as early as 4am this morning. The show is set to go ahead regardless of the weather, something one American fan claimed is actually lucky. Fan Madeline DeFreece, who managed to not only survive the rain, but claimed it added to the show, told Metro: 'This show was meant to be performed in the rain. The way the fabric moved on the contemporary dancers — I could not imagine it any differently.' She continued: 'At one point the cowboys had a Magic Mike moment, thrusting the floor of the stage and immediately I turned to my friend and said, 'We are so privileged to be in such a time and place.' I mean it was hot and provocative in a way that I don't think Beyoncé nor her team planned for.' More Trending Madeline also added: 'I'd pay to see it again, I'd pay even more to see it again in the rain.' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Blue Ivy has become a firm fixture of Beyoncé's dance crew, but the sight of rarely-seen Rumi hugging her mum on stage has reduced fans to tears during the tour's run. During her first appearance on opening night at the Los Angeles SoFi Stadium, the tot walked on in a gold dress with Beyoncé, who wore glittering gold and green plaid chaps and bodysuit, and her sister during the song, Protector. It's unclear if Rumi will be taking to the stage tonight, but rest assured the event will still be a family affair with Blue Ivy putting in a shift as a dancer. Got a story?

I Usually Hate Dresses - But This Popular High Street Style Changed My Mind
When I think of my spring/summer wardrobe, I think of buttery pastels, muted florals and heaps of linen - but this year, I've had to rethink my wardrobe because of one trend in particular. Now, I'm not suggesting you start listing all your existing clothes on Vinted, instead, consider making space for polka dots. As you've probably seen by now, the perennial dotted print is elbowing out ditsy florals and neutral linens, and this year polka dots have made a departure from the classic styles we saw on the likes of Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman , to become more grown-up, in a new palette of colours and dots of all shapes and sizes - backed by designers like Valentino, Jacquemus and Carolina Herrera. If I had to single out one high street style that's managed to convinced me to swap my beloved florals for something more 2025, it would be the Puff-Sleeve Mini Dress from & Other Stories. Equal parts coquettish and cool, the latest polka dot phenomenon is cut to a mini length, with a subtly cinched waist and voluminous puff sleeves. Its monochrome colourway - a black base finished with small white polka dots - provides an interesting contrast that can most definitely hold itself among a more eclectic wardrobe, but also retains some of that old-school Hollywood glamour you'd expect in a polka dot number. ©Instagram/@hellovalentine Puff-Sleeve Mini Dress & Other Stories' Puff Sleeve Mini Dress is one you can take on holiday, and then wear to a wedding, garden party, Christening - or pretty much any other social date you have in your calendar. With an open back that's gloriously chic and voluminous puff sleeves, I expect this dress will be one to sell out. Styling the mini dress is delightfully simple, particularly if you have your favourite pair of chunky sandals in tow. For a look fit for cafe-hopping in (insert European city of your choice), pair the polka dot mini dress with tan sandals and a Dragon Diffusion bag. Alternatively for the evening, swap out the flat sandals for strappy kitten heels or platform sandals and the tote for something smaller. If, it gets towards the end of summer you find it's a little cold to wear a mini dress, you can always layer a sheer turtleneck top underneath the dress and add a pair of knee-high boots. & Other Stories' polka dot mini joins this season's polka dot dress hall-of-famers, earning its place alongside the bandeau-style Felicity Dress from Nobody's Child and Reformation's fuss-free Nara dress. The & Other Stories iteration finds itself somewhere in the middle - between polished and playful - and it's mini length sets it apart from the sea of midis and floor-sweeping maxis. It probably comes as no surprise then, that it's already selling out (and fast).

When not writing, shopping or at Reformer Pilates (a cliché but she's hooked), Gemma will likely be planning her next holiday (and what she's going to wear).
