Wearing a pair of black shorts and a matching T-shirt and cap, Colson took a selfie in the mirror and captioned it: “Starting the morning with a run. Quarantine daily run.”

He added: “First day back at work. Like a kid at Christmas.”

Colson later shared a Boomerang video of his very healthy lunch, which included plenty of vegetables.

Last week, the soap star – who plays Craig Tinker on Coronation Street – revealed his gruelling fitness regime to fans, which has seen him shed an impressive amount of weight.

Sharing a video of himself working out in his back garden, Colson can be seen swinging kettlebells above his head, slamming a weighted ball on the floor and doing curls using heavy dumbells.

His weight loss during lockdown has amazed fans, with one insisting he was “giving Adele a run for her money”.

Colson’s stunned Corrie co-star Andy Whyment, who plays Kirk Sutherland, replied to one picture he posted, writing: “Looking absolutely mega pal well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.”

It comes after Colson joked he’d lost ten stone during lockdown and would have to wear a fat suit when filming for Corrie resumed.

Speaking on his podcast, he said: “We are in direct continuity, but I’ve almost lost about ten stone since we left work so I’m not sure that [my hair] is going to be the biggest of their issues.

“I might be wearing a wig and a fat suit when we go back. Now we go to a purple shampoo, which almost makes it a platinum sort of colour, which basically takes the ginger pigment out.

“So the yellow-ness will go, and I will have a head of blonde hair, which I technically do now.”

Meanwhile, it’s been revealed that several Coronation Street plots have been scrapped due to coronavirus.
