VIDEO: GSP is keeping himself in fantastic shape with exhausting-looking workout

Our arms are sore just watching this

When some fighters take time off from fighting, they plank themselves straight on the couch and quickly turn from lightweights to light heavyweights.

Not ol’ Georges St-Pierre though. The welterweight legend is not taking any breaks from the grind as he looks to maintain his fitness during his spell of semi-retirement from fighting.

GSP (25-2) vacated his 170lb title over a year ago in order to take some time away from mixed martial arts but he looks in pretty decent shape if this video is anything to go by.

UFC 111: St-Pierre v Hardy Weigh-In

The Canadian is availing of some pretty damn arduous gymnastics training in his bid to keep himself in shape, throwing out backflips and the whole shebang.

We’re not too sure when we can expect “Rush” to return to our screens but, if he’s in this kind of condition, we fancy him to regain his welterweight belt without a bother.
