Flexible Alex Gerrard is put through her paces during park workout

Squats, lunges, lifts, press-ups and a run to top it all off.

There was certainly no let-up for Alex Gerrard as she hit the park for a rigorous workout with her personal trainer this week.

The WAG was spotted working up a sweat in the sub zero temperatures in a local Liverpool park on Wednesday.

Alex, wife of England footballer Steven Gerrard, was decked out in her winter gear for the session - black leggings, a sweaters and grey beanie.

And she was using winter as her motivation to keep fit by trying out the new ski-inspired workout using a ViPR tube.

The ViPR, which stands for Vitality, Performance and Reconditioning, is a rubber tube that comes in seven weights, from 4 to 20kg.

It can be carried, dragged, thrown, rolled, stepped on and flipped, which is said to work the muscle groups used while skiing.

The mother-of-two was accompanied by her personal trainer Dina Mogan, who was decked in similar attire and certainly appeared to be cracking the whip.

At one point in the workout, the blonde trainer watched on as Alex, 28, did a series of lunges while lifting the rubber tube

She followed this up with few sets of press-ups, working on her upper body strength and core muscles.

To finish Alex got her heartbeat racing by doing some cardio work with sprint around the park.

The former nail technician is a self-confessed lover of sweet treats.

But over the past year she has been working hard to keep in shape, by eating healthier food and following a dedicated fitness regime.

She admitted to being ashamed when she saw photographs of herself on holiday last year looking out of shape.

'When I returned from celebrating my first wedding anniversary with Steven, I saw pictures of me in a red bikini. I was horrified to see rolls of fat,' she said at the time.

'I had been eating rubbish food for years and my tummy had never fully recovered after having two children.'

Gerrard's wife, Alex Curran can't stop looking at a hunky young man wearing skimpy swimming trunks!

AS a footballer's wife, she knows a thing or two about dubious fashion trends.

But even Alex Curran couldn't help but resist doing a double take on this occasion.

Miss Curran, who is married to Liverpool footballer Steven Gerrard, looked a little perplexed after being confronted with a fellow holiday-maker wearing the skimpiest pair of swimming trunks.

Her husband remained in Liverpool to prepare for Liverpool's match against Turkish side Trabzonspor last night.

It was during an outing to the beach that Curran spotted the hunky young man, whose attire left little to the imagination.

Such swimwear, which have also been labelled 'budgie smugglers' have enjoyed a resurgence in popularity after Daniel Craig wore a similar pair in James Bond film casino Royale, in 2006.

Curran's trip to Spain is the latest of numerous holidays already this year. They appeared happy and relaxed together during their holiday last month, despite recent internet rumours their marriage was under strain.

The WAG has been doing her bit in a bid to keep in shape too, having gone on a special diet and exercise regime over the past few months.

She said recently: 'I was trying to go to the gym as much as possible before the break to get in shape for the beach but I still feel a bit wobbly, which I’m devastated about.

'Although as soon as we arrived, we relaxed and started pigging out! We’ve had a few barbecues and we’ve been out for a few meals.'

Holey Fashion! Alex Gerrard spotted with odd and weird style!

Presumably, the perennially glamorous Alex Gerrard is rather too image conscious to be seen in public wearing ripped leggings, unless, of course, the look was intentional.

The WAG sported the odd style as she left the hairdressers in Liverpool yesterday, with holes in both knees of her jogging pants.

She teamed them with a top from Sienna Miller's Twenty8Twelve collection, a pricey Hermes Birkin bag and Converse trainers.

Holey knees are not exactly at the fashion forefront at the moment, but there is every chance that the 27-year-old could be attempting to start a new trend.

The mother of two emerged from the salon with her mane having being finely coiffed and curled at the bottom.

However she was caught out by a gust of blustery wind, which played havoc with her tresses as she made a dash for her car.
