CONOR MCGREGOR is still hard at work in the gym ahead of his eagerly-anticipated return to the UFC.

The Notorious has spent the last six months on the sidelines recovering from the horrific broken leg he suffered in his Las Vegas trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier.

McGregor, 33, has hit the gym hard during his hiatus from the cage – bulking up to a whopping 86kg.

And the Irishman is still smashing the weights ahead of his return to martial arts training.

On Tuesday night, McGregor shared a video of himself doing a set of weighted chin-ups in his McGregor Fast home gym.

The former two-division champion had a dumbbell attached to a weight belt before he approached the bar for his set.

And he proceeded to nail ten picture-perfect reps before putting himself through even more agony with a super-slow negative at the end.

Fans of the Dubliner were quick to comment, with one saying: "Easy peasy."

Another said: "My man is massive now."

And another said: "Good Job Conor. Pull-ups are no joke."

One chimed in: "Damn that is insane strength and form."

Another merely said: "Silverback."

McGregor shared the video just a matter of days after he revealed he'll soon quit the booze to immerse himself in 'full training'.

He wrote on Instagram: "For my fighting fans, I want to say I know I am enjoying myself with my liquid, but very soon I will be immersing myself in full training again with complete abstention from my wonderful creations of Spirit and Ale."

McGregor's manager, Audie Attar, revealed to SunSport last year that the former feather and lightweight champion's recovery is 'ahead of schedule'.

UFC president Dana White is anticipating a summer return for the Irishman, who has lost three of his last four outings.

When asked about McGregor competing this year, White told TMZ: "I think so, yeah.

"He's doing all the right things with his leg. I'm hoping he can come back this summer."
