Married At First Sight star Martha Kalifatidis is a self-confessed skincare aficionado who takes pride in her youthful visage.

But an at-home workout on Tuesday almost resulted in a terrible facial injury when the 32-year-old influencer tried lifting weights with her boyfriend, Michael Brunelli.

Personal trainer Michael shared a series of videos to Instagram of the couple exercising together in their living room as part of his 30-day workout challenge.

‘Challenge day two just got dangerous’: Married At First Sight’s Martha Kalifatidis almost smashed her face with weights while working out alongside boyfriend Michael Brunelli on Tuesday

He was performing hip trusts while Martha was on her knees raising the weights over her head.

The blonde somehow lost her grip and accidentally flung the one of the weights.

Fortunately, the dumbbell did not hit her face, but she was nonetheless left shaken by the incident.

Oh dear! He was doing hip trusts while Martha was doing raising the weights over her head. She somehow lost her grip and accidentally flung the one of the weights away.

Michael, 30, laughed it off and told her: ‘My god, did you just throw the weight?’

‘I mean, I can’t even say that I didn’t because it’s on camera,’ Martha replied, before resuming the workout.

She went on to explain: ‘I went to just unstick my hand because I’m sweaty, and I had a full fit.’
