Good Morning Britain anchor Ben Shephard is no stranger to intense training, having presented tough obstacle course-based ITV show Ninja Warrior - but he's admitted that time is taking its toll on his body.The 48-year-old insists that parts of him are "falling off" as he desperately attempts to regain his former fitness after a knee surgery back in 2021."As I'm getting older and bits of me are falling off and falling apart badly, I realised that trying to preserve my joints and my shoulders and my back is really huge," he grimaced.The sporty star, who is also famous for his appearances on Tipping Point, has always excelled physically in the past, having run a huge total of 14 marathons.However, a tense match in the Cup Final for his veteran team Arthur Dunn had left him crippled, with one of his legs becoming injured in three places."We won the Cup Final, but I started with two legs and ended with one," he explained at the time to GMB co-host Susanna Reid, after being forced to limp around with a leg brace.The star has since admitted on a recent episode of the That Gaby Roslin podcast that he fears he will never reach 100 per cent fitness again.He added: "Because your body's been through so much physical trauma, learning to do something again [is a struggle]."Even when I first had my knee op done, even learning to put full weight on it or to jump off a small step, it's remarkable what the brain does."Explaining his postoperative nerves, he mused: "You're reticent to let yourself go for things", while Gaby chimed in that his fear was his mind's way of getting "protection".Ben also lamented that as he advances in age, he has "things to worry about, like kids".He shares two teenage sons, Jack and Sam, with his wife Annie
