Athletes from around the world have stripped off for a sizzling hot naked calendar to help raise money for charity.

Cross-fit champions, ballerinas and horse riders are among the 18 sportsmen and women who showed off their toned physiques for the project, which was photographed at locations around Warsaw, Poland.

Former Ipswich Town football player Rafal Gil and veteran soldier and gym owner Jamie Alderton are among those representing Britain.

The 300-page diary and personal planner for 2018 is packed with stunning photos alongside daily training schedules and tables to record goals, achievements and results. It benefits the One Year Fund, which raises money for footware, clothing and equipment for underfunded young athletes.

London photographer and founder of the project Dominika Cuda, who is a former Biathlonist, added: ‘We reach out to the best and brightest, help them stay on their chosen path and motivate them in achieving their goals.’
