«Breaking News» AJ Pritchard flaunts toned torso for hunky shirtless shoot and reveals weight training regime

AJ Pritchard has revealed his workout regime, admitting that he's ramped up weights training to 'keep his shape'.

The Strictly Come Dancing pro, 24, is known for his ballroom moves and boyish good looks; but in snaps from his 2019 calendar, AJ displays a moodier side, shedding his shirt and flexing his muscular frame.

And the dancer admits that it's hard to hang on to muscle in his profession, especially where lots of cardio is involved.

He told MailOnline: 'People ask me all the time what do I do workout-wise and how I keep in shape. Now Strictly has finished I’m in the gym five times a week.

'My aim whilst on the tour is to go every day. Although I am dancing each day, I like to focus on some weights as well - otherwise it's just cardio. When I am doing cardio I lose my muscle really fast because it just kills it.

'That's why I have to do weights in the gym: to ensure I don’t lose my shape and can lift my dance partners above my head.'

AJ stormed through Strictly 2018 with partner Lauren Steadman, getting to the semi-finals. They are now set for the Strictly tour, which starts this week, but AJ will soon be heading out on a solo dance tour, Get On The Floor!

'My aim for my dancing and fitness is to achieve flexibility in those disciplines so I am spending time to make sure I stretch after each workout or dancing session I do to give me further strength and ability,' AJ said.

'Flexibility is also injury prevention as I never get a chance for a break, so I always need to make sure I am ensuring I take all steps I can to avoid becoming hurt.

'Food-wise I tend to eat pretty much what I want when I am remaining active so there are no secrets on that front, stay active and eat well and you will see results'

The ever-cheerful dancer has proven that it's full steam ahead with his 2019 plans, despite he and his brother Curtis, 23, being attacked in a Cheshire nightclub in the lead up to New Year's Eve.

While the police announced they had arrested a 20-year-old male in connection with the crime, he was 'released under investigation pending further enquiries'.

A spokeswoman for the Cheshire Constabulary told MailOnline on Monday that the case is still open, no further arrests have been made and that the investigation is ongoing.

AJ will take centre stage for Get On The Floor! which sees him have creative control of the repertoire.

'This is my first tour alone and, for me, I love choreography and this show gives me the chance to do things exactly how I want to do them,' he explained to MailOnline in December.

'On Strictly, each week its either movies week or musicals week or whatever. So this will let me explore lots of concepts. I can incorporate extra dances and dance moves. There are no limits.

'I get to try this, try that, mismatch all the different styles. I can do a bit of jazz, tap, contemporary. I can challenge myself.' 

Both AJ's calendar and tickets for his show are available now.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
