Noel Edmonds, 76, reveals the weird and wacky secrets to his surprisingly ripped physique - from 'tranquil power training' to an alkaline diet and using a 'cancer-tackling' yoga mat
Noel Edmonds has sent fans into a frenzy after showcasing his surprisingly ripped physique.
The Deal Or No Deal presenter, 76, looked incredible as he showcased his muscular torso in a pair of blue patterned swimming trunks after being named Torso Of The Week by Heat magazine.
And the TV star has revealed the key to his secret health regime which he calls 'Tranquil Power'.
Taking to Instagram after receiving Torso Of The Week, Noel joked with followers: 'So many of you have asked how do I get the body of a 76 year old?
'Step 1: Turn 76. Step 2: Tranquil Power (see my Positivity Formula on Noel Edmonds Kiwi Adventure)'
He then teased: 'If that fails bribe the lighting guy!' before falling into his outdoor pool.
The TV star revealed the key to his secret health regime which he calls 'Tranquil Power' where you hold the weight and feel the muscle burn then let go (pictured on I'm A Celeb in 2018)
Speaking to The Sun, Noel explained: 'The exercise I do, I call tranquil power. It's about quiet and slow. You hold it [the weight], you feel the muscle burn and then let go.'
Later discussing his morning routine he added: 'I normally have a warm shower in the morning and wash it off with a cold shower.
'And then a sauna, infra red. It's proven science and very good for you.'
Fans went wild for Noel's impressive physique as they exclaimed: 'Great physique, and fabulous hair. Could easily pass for 55';
'Looking strong'; 'Looking really good, fit and healthy'; 'You've not aged in all these years, infact if anything your looking absolutely amazingly fit!!';
'You do look incredible for your age just goes to show lifting weights does make a huge difference to your life'.
Noel is also enjoying more of an outdoor lifestyle after he and his wife Liz quit the UK in 2018 to build a new life in New Zealand.
The couple have now opened a hospitality business in the small rural, riverside town of Ngatimoti, which includes a vineyard, coffee cart, general store, restaurant and pub.

And in his upcoming reality show Noel Edmonds' Kiwi Adventure, set to launch on June 20, follows the couple as they start their life from scratch 11,500 miles away.
In the past Noel has revealed he also practises meditation, exercising slowly in darkness while listening to electronic pulses for an hour a week.
He also explained he lies on a £2,300 electro-magnetic mat for 15 minutes a day, which he claims helped cure his cancer.
Back in 2016 Noel sparked controversy after he revealed that he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer and that he had 'tackled' it with his the very upmarket yoga mat.
The star alleged that he had used the EMPpad, a machine which aims to stimulate 'cellular resonance' in the body, as part of a regime to cure himself from cancer that he said was caused by stress.
Speaking about his experience in an interview on This Morning, Noel infuriated host Phillip Schofield, and the show's doctor, Dr Ranj Singh, who said that there is no evidence that a machine can harness the effects of positive energy.
Other experts have also disputed his claims.
Noel said: 'The point here is that when I found out I had prostate cancer, I went out there and started to ask as many questions as possible.
'I changed my diet, I exercised in a different way... I then had my tumour destroyed by sound waves, proving yet again energy is at the heart of this issue.'
He continued: 'I was, I thought, very, very healthy. I know why I got my cancer: because I had gone through a very stressful, very negative period in my life.'
Phillip asked: 'The stress in your life gave you prostate cancer?'
He replied: 'Yes, because the definition of stress is negative energy. It didn't just decide to manifest itself, there was cause.
'You have cancer in you, we all have it. Something triggers it, I don't believe what you say or think triggers it, but outside forces trigger it... All I want to encourage is get the information.'
Phillip gave a statement from the makers of the EMPpad, which said they did 'not agree with it (Mr Edmonds' statement) in any way, shape or form'.
He replied: 'Fine, all I'm saying is, by using pulsed electromagnetism and a series of other things, I am now free of prostate cancer.'
Noel added that after using the mat: 'I could see my hair was thicker, my nails were stronger, the exercise I was doing in the gym was easier and less painful.'
In terms of diet, Noel is believed to avoid red meat and maintains an alkaline diet which aims to balance the pH of your body.
Alkaline foods include fresh fruits, nuts, seeds, beans, and non-starchy vegetables, rather than more acidic foods like meat, cheese, eggs, grains, and processed foods.
Noel has also struggled with his mental health in the past after he confessed he tried to kill himself in January 2005.
The presenter was discovered in woodland on his estate in Devon after taking handfuls of prescription pills washed down by a bottle of vodka.
The TV host even recorded heartbreaking goodbye messages for his four daughters and in an interview with ITV in 2017 he confessed: 'My world imploded. And I lost my home. I went to a very dark space.
'The only way I can describe it is it is the darkest space that the human mind ever occupies.
'I wrote a letter to my now ex-wife explaining as best I could why I'd reached the end, and I recorded little dictaphone messages to my daughters, basically saying goodbye.'
He said: 'The fact that I did not become another suicide statistic is solely due to the swift response of a Devon ambulance crew and the compassionate support of the Priory in Bristol.'
Noel also believes in cosmic ordering after he was given a book about it by his reflexologist.
He said that four of six wishes he wrote down and offered to the cosmos then came true, including his wish to front another hit show – which was Deal Or No Deal.
'You'll think I've gone away with the fairies, but its fantastic!' he said. He wrote a book, Positively Happy: Cosmic Ways To Change Your Life, in 2006.
He explained: 'To me cosmic order is all about being a positive person who takes charge of your own life.
'You have to make conscious decisions to go out and make things happen for you.

He's also startlingly excited about his nail gun, calling it 'a sex toy', and regards Liz as 'an earth angel' believing she was 'a gift from the cosmos'. An eccentric cult classic in the making.
