Sky News host Peta Credlin shows off her incredible gym transformation as she poses in skintight activewear
Peta Credlin has been working hard at the gym ahead of indulging on holiday.
The Sky News host shared a selfie to Instagram recently that showed her progress in the gym.
The fit 55-year-old posed in skintight activewear including a navy blue tank top and black leggings.
She flexed her ample arm muscles as she snapped a mirror selfie to flaunt her slender, muscular physique, and explained she was working hard before heading off on holiday to Italy.
'Progress update before I go and ruin all the hard work with a daily holiday gelato,' she wrote in her caption.
Peta explained that she has been working out at the Enterprise Fitness gym in Melbourne.
The comments section was inundated with support, with TV host Rebecca Maddern writing, 'I wouldn't mess with you.'
Peta replied: 'Trying to avoid the dreaded "tuck shop" arms of menopause.'
One fan chimed in: 'Well done. Healthy body healthy mind. A force to be reckoned with.'
'I didn't think anyone was allowed guns that big,' joked another while someone else said, 'Great effort. Hope the training is going to help kick Albo around.'
Earlier this year, Peta dressed down a male colleague live on air, accusing him of insulting the intelligence of women.
Credlin grew increasingly exasperated with the network's political editor Andrew Clennell, after he said former Opposition Leader Peter Dutton had to bring in some 'women-friendly policies' in order to pave his way to The Lodge.
'What's a 'women's friendly policy' mate?' a visibly unimpressed Credlin said. 'Do you think we don't care about the economy? We don't care about defence?'
Clennell replied: 'I'm not a woman. But I'm saying if (Dutton) went for that constituency, if he did a couple of things in that area, and I remember Gladys Berejiklian did that sort of thing.'
That comment only made Credlin more incensed.
'You insult our intelligence to think we don't care about these things,' she said.
'Well of course they do, but people vote with the hip pocket - there is a sense amongst women,' Clennell continued before a finger-pointing Credlin interrupted that women 'do not vote with our vaginas'.
'Well, you're the one who's asking me about a gender difference, Peta, I mean, you raised it,' Clennell retorted.
'Well... I'm asking you about what can you read in it, and you're saying that he's got to have women's policies to win women,' Peta responded. 'I find that offensive.'
Credlin was the former chief of staff to Tony Abbott when he was prime minister and minister for women.
