She is a fitness freak and is rarely unable to complete even the most strenuous physical tasks.

But Davina McCall was left ‘humiliated’ on Tuesday morning when she shared a fun exercise while attempting a Yoga Challenge With Roisin.

On her Instagram page, the TV presenter, 55, posted a clip of herself trying to do a handstand against a wall to the soundtrack Help! by the Beatles.

Unfortunately, Davina, who was wearing a yellow sports bra and leggings, was unsuccessful, even after several tries, and burst into laughter.

Davina captioned her post: ‘Help! This was humiliating. I literally thought ‘piece of cake’ when I saw Roisin… oh my gosh she makes it look so easy! Attempt!!!

‘If you fancy trying one of the holiday mini-challenges, head over to @ownyourgoalsdavina. Roisin’s Yoga challenge has won me.

‘I’ll keep trying… tag me in yours!!! I want to see!!!!’

Funny: Davina captioned her post: ‘Help! This was a humbling lesson. I literally thought ‘piece of cake’ when I saw Roisin… gosh, she makes it look so easy! Attempt!!!’

An advocate for women’s health and fitness, Davina has her own fitness page called @ownyourgoalsdavina where she shares tips, tricks, and videos from personal trainers.

The presenter also shares fitness and workout content on her personal account, and on Sunday she uploaded a clip of herself trying out another workout routine.

Davina captioned the post: ‘Yeah! @daniel_duckett_ I want to go again!!!!! @ownyourgoalsdavina training this morning… physical exertion before Christmas ready for my new year challenge…’

She also campaigns for access to HRT (hormone replacement therapy) for menopausal women across the country.

oops! Unfortunately, Davina, who was wearing a yellow sports bra and leggings, was unsuccessful, even after several tries, and burst into laughter.

Try and try again: Unfortunately, Davina ended her video with a smile, despite failure.

Last week, the presenter spoke again about her experience, saying in a new video that HRT had changed her life and that she hoped to “destigmatize” the treatment.

‘What brings me midlife joy, well I can tell you what helps me along the way. HRT has completely changed my life. It’s not for everyone,’ Davina began.

“But it’s really helped me a lot and one of my missions when I started my menopausal journey was to destigmatize HRT and reframe the way people view it.”

“The sooner you take it, the more benefits you’ll get, it can revolutionize your relationships, your sleep, it can really help a lot and that’s my Christmas cheer,” he concluded.

What is HRT?

-HRT replaces the body’s declining hormones to relieve the symptoms of menopause

-It is usually a combination of estrogen and progesterone that is taken as a daily tablet, but it can also be taken as patches, gels, sprays, pessaries, and implants.

Menopause marks the end of a woman’s fertile life when periods stop.

Typically, around age 51, the ovaries stop producing estrogen, as well as progesterone and testosterone, and no longer release an egg each month.

These hormones have a protective effect on the heart and bones, as well as on the skin and other tissues.

Common symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness that causes discomfort during intercourse, disturbed sleep, decreased sexual desire, memory and concentration problems, and mood swings.

HRT replaces the body’s declining hormones to relieve these symptoms. It is usually a combination of estrogen and progesterone taken as a daily tablet, but it can also be taken as patches, gels, sprays, pessaries, and implants.

For those women who no longer have a womb, only estrogen is needed because progesterone protects the lining of the womb from thickening and potentially cancerous.

Her fight: Davina vowed to ‘fight as long as she can’ for women to receive Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and proper menopause care amid a shortage problem in the UK.

What is menopause?

Menopause is defined as the changes a woman goes through just before and after her periods stop and she can no longer get pregnant naturally.

Some women go through this time with few or no symptoms, around 60 percent experience symptoms that result in behavioral changes, and one in four will suffer severely.

Menopause occurs when your ovaries stop making the hormone estrogen and no longer release an egg each month.

American experts say that women go through menopause at the age of 51 on average, although it can start when someone is between 40 and 58 years old.
