Colson Smith Grapples with Getting Back into Fitness After Celebrity Big Brother
Struggling to Regain Momentum
CORONATION Street actor Colson Smith has admitted what he’s struggling to get back into since being in Celebrity Big Brother. The 25-year-old has returned to his fitness regime after Friday night’s final – but is finding it tough.
Challenges of Resuming Workouts
“My legs aren’t impressed with me for having three weeks off…”, said Colson after doing a 6km run. The next day he headed back to the gym and posed for a mirror selfie close to the weights. However, appearing to still be struggling to snap back into his typical routine, he admitted: “This is harder than it used to be.”
Preparations to Return to Corrie
Colson, who plays Craig Tinker in the ITV soap, is preparing to return to the cobbles after his month-long break. Writers ensured his absence was short with him being only gone for four episodes. Colson said: “The story team were like, ‘we’ll make this work for Colson because we want him to have the experience’.”
Anxiety Over Leaving Corrie
Worried about things going wrong while in the famous House, Colson joked about getting back onto the Corrie set in Manchester. He stated, “I feel like as well, the aspects of Big Brother and being in the house is very similar to the green room at work.”
