Chris Appleton Spotted Shirtless for London Workout While Training for ‘Strictly Come Dancing’

Chris Appleton is getting ready to compete on the next season of Strictly Come Dancing and he’s making sure he’ll be in tip-top shop for the show!

The 43-year-old celebrity hairstylist was spotted getting in a workout in a local park this week in London, England.

Chris was seen going shirtless for his training session alongside some workout partners.

Strictly Come Dancing is the UK equivalent of Dancing With the Stars

It was announced in June that Chris will compete on the 2026 season of BBC’s dancing competition series, Strictly Come Dancing. This is basically the British version of Dancing With the Stars.

“I’m thrilled to be joining Strictly Come Dancing and coming home to the UK for this incredible experience,” Chris said in a statement. “I’ve always believed that the best things happen when you take a chance and try something new. I may know my way around a salon floor, but the dance floor is a whole different story – and I can’t wait to get started.”

Strictly Come Dancing has been around since 2004 and this will be the 24th season of the show!

All about Chris Appleton’s workout routine

Chris opened up about his fitness routine back in 2023 for a Marie Claire feature.

I have a trainer and that helps me get the most out of an hour. I don’t have a lot of time and he keeps me accountable and off my phone. We try to keep training different body parts. I do weights and high intensity just to keep it tight and right. If you just do weights, you get too big and if you just do cardio, you get too flat. We just keep it popping. I like to look in the mirror and be like, What looks good? What needs some work? I always try to put abs in my routine. That’s important to me because I feel like I stand taller and feel better. It’s not just about how I look, it’s about how it makes me feel.
