CONOR MCGREGOR looks bigger than ever as he continues gearing up for a UFC return later this year.
The Notorious has been out of action since breaking his leg at UFC 264 in July last year.
His lengthy absence hasn’t seen him fall out of shape, however, in fact it’s had quite the opposite effect.
McGregor, 33, is currently sporting bulging biceps – having hit the gym particularly hard during his injury lay-off.
The Irishman has today shared pictures and videos of himself working out on social media.
In one clip, he performs a number of pull-ups, while in other pictures he can be seen lifting weights.

McGregor also shared one image of himself with a cheeky smile on his face, clearly enjoying the hard work.
Accompanying his snaps, he wrote: “Proper Power training! God bless my @tidlsport recovery spray to be pain free! Let’s keep pushing team 
”
In the series of pictures and videos, McGregor can be seen with cupping marks on his body.
Cupping is a treatment that many top athletes undergo, with suction cups places on their bodies to remove toxins.

The treatment is said to aid physical recovery by easing pain and reducing inflammation in the body.
It particularly helps with joint and muscular pain and helps speeding up the recovery of soft tissue.
Some fight fans believe it is ‘cursed’, however, after a number of stars lost their bouts after cupping.
Such fighters include Amir Khan, who recently lost to Kell Brook, and Derrick Lewis – who was brutally KO’d by Tai Tuivasa.
The identity of McGregor’s next opponent isn’t yet known.
But he has been urged to face Jorge Masvidal by Chael Sonnen.
McGregor recently found himself in an online war of words with fellow former two-weight UFC champion Henry Cejudo.
He branded Cejudo a ‘fat midget novice’ on social media.
