Louis Theroux gets in shape with Joe Wicks workouts

Louis Theroux has been getting in shape with Joe Wicks\' home workouts.

The 50-year-old filmmaker has beefed up in lockdown by religiously following The Body Coach\'s HIIT workouts everyday.

He told The Sun newspaper\'s Bizarre TV column: "I did it religiously every day, except for weekends. It was perhaps the biggest way I dealt with all the weirdness and sense of uncertainty around the lockdown and the pandemic. I\'ve become a little bit of a Joe Wicks evangelist."

The 33-year-old fitness guru provided kids across the nation with a home PE lesson on his YouTube channel to ensure children were still getting exercise during the lockdown.

And Louis - who had Frederick, Walter and Albert with wife Nancy Strang - was determined to lead by example for his three children.

He added: "The first day, the kids did it, then the kids became semi-regular participants. I was trying to lead by example."
