This weeks Fabulous cover star is Jessica Ennis, the girl with Britain’s Olympic hopes on her perfectly defined shoulders. The abs, the toned thighs, the arms... Jessica Ennis’ body looks pretty impressive! However, in an exclusive interview with Fabulous magazine, she reveals she spent most of her teens anxious about what full-time athletics was going to do to her naturally slim frame.

“When I was younger, I used to worry a lot about what the training was going to do to my body. I knew I had to be strong to be an athlete, but I didn’t want to be huge. I was always a skinny child and my legs were literally this wide” she says, separating her thumb and forefinger a few inches. "I wouldn't say I'm proud of my body. I see it as functional. It's a tool for me to perform." 

Jess is training six hours a day, six times a week, but on her one day off she’ll do a bit of girly shopping, “I love French Connection and Reiss and I like to mix that up with a bit of designer as well. Stella McCartney [who designed the new Team GB kit] of course! I love Victoria Beckham – I don’t own anything by her but there was one dress in particular that I wanted so badly – the orange and navy block with a zip up the back. Gorgeous. But it’s gone, sold out!”
