I work out! Jodie Marsh films her new bodybuilding show on Muscle Beach in Los Angeles yesterday

She shocked fans when she entered a bodybuilding competition back in October and it seems Jodie Marsh isn't over her latest career move yet.

The 33-year-old glamour model was spotted filming scenes for her new show at Muscle Beach in Los Angeles yesterday and was of course showing off her muscular figure.

Jodie - who came fifth in the Natural Physique Association Bodybuilding Championships - clearly took a short break from her intensive workouts but was glad to be back on form as she tweeted this week: 'By the way. I'm ripped again. And I'm so in love with my 8 pack :-) Can't stop looking at it in mirror. Haha.'

Showing off! The 33-year-old couldn't resist flexing her muscles on the sand

Proving she's got a lot of discipline, the British star spent a lot of her time dangling from gymnastic rings at the well-known spot situated on Venice Beach.

As she swung around in the sun, Jodie wore a bright pink crop top, black stretchy briefs and matching legwarmers.

Her bright red hair was pulled up in a messy style, and the skimpy outfit highlighted her various tattoos.

Jodie - who became interested in bodybuilding back in 2009 - is filming the new fitness show for the Discovery Channel and was joined by a female fitness instructor who looked just as disciplined as the Essex star.

The blonde woman wore a blue and black striped top as she accompanied Jodie on the equipment and helped her reach her full potential.

Although Jodie was trying her best to remain subtle as she worked out, she couldn't resist striking a few poses on the sand and admitted that she is in the best shape of her life.

Jodie was obviously trying to keep the work trip low key but after being 'chased by five paparazzi' was more than happy to 'let the cat out of the bag.'

The former Celebrity Big Brother contestant seems to be excited about her future in the U.S. and yesterday tweeted: 'Things are def getting better & better. Had a Hollywood agent take me on yesterday. Reckons he can do big things in USA for me :-) #exciting.'

And it isn't the first time that she has worked out Stateside as at the end of January 2010, she was featured on LA Muscle TV in an hour long show called Six Pack in Four Weeks.

Jodie's work on the show, resulted in a photoshoot for Muscle and Fitness magazine, which obviously led to her serious interest in the sport.

Jodie looked completely unrecognisable after undertaking a gruelling diet and exercise regime which saw her go from a size 10 to a tiny size six last year.

Speaking about her new figure at the time, Jodie said: 'This is the best I’ve ever felt, and the best my body has ever felt too.
