Cave girl Cole! Cheryl shows off her incredible bikini body in a barely-there two-piece
By SARAH BULL
She has admitted working hard to maintain her trim physique.
But all of Cheryl Cole's work is clearly paying off, judging by a picture she posted of herself in a barely-there bikini on her Instagram page.
In the shot, Cheryl is seen channelling her inner cave girl as she poses proudly in the skimpy two-piece, in a behind-the-scenes image from her recent calendar shoot.

Cheryl captioned the shot: '#BTS calendar shoot! The heat, wind and dust up there was no bueno! #standandtan.'
The former Girls Aloud star previously revealed that despite sticking to a tough exercise regime, she does let herself have a few cheat days when it comes to her food.
Speaking to FeelUnique.com earlier this year, Cheryl said: 'I don’t follow any strict diets, I just eat sensibly.

'I’m not eating McDonald’s or pizza every day but I do allow myself one cheat day a week, normally on a Sunday. I have a really sweet tooth and love cupcakes, doughnuts. Basically anything that’s really bad for you.'
To burn off her sweet treats, the 30-year-old sticks to daily workouts.
Cheryl says she swears by the Tracy Anderson Method - the plan created by the author and multi-platform wellness entrepreneur whose clients also include Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow - to keep her body in shape.

Cheryl explained that she uses the Tracy Anderson DVD at home to tone up and help maintain her much-envied abs.
As well as possessing a finely honed physique, Cheryl also regularly tops Most Beautiful Woman polls - an honour she still can't get her head around.
'I still don’t get why people call me a beauty icon. It’s so flattering, don’t get me wrong, but I just don’t get it,' she said.
