Last year, he candidly opened up on his battle with disordered eating, detailing the extreme measures he took while trying to build his dream body years before his stint on Love Island.

Now Michael has taken to Instagram to showcase his super-ripped new look.

He filmed a video showing his fitness feat, accompanied with the caption: "Michael has entered the chat."

The opening clip saw the firefighter posing by the gym lockers.

Yet things then ramped up when Michael hit the gym floor to give a glimpse at his newly bulked-up look.

He posed topless, pulling up the hemline of his black gym shorts to show off his huge quads.

He then performed a bicep curl on his left arm, tensing up his muscles for extra effect.

One fan was quick to remark: "Hard work," before he replied: "That’s right."

Another added: "Gaddammmmmm," before he wrote: "Younger me would be proud."

One then added: "Amazing Michael!"

A fan wrote: "Amazing Physique."

The star is rumoured to have been in talks with Love Island bosses for the All Stars spin off series.

The Sun exclusively revealed that the cast of well-known island favourites began shooting their top-secret introduction videos last week.

The likes of Georgia Steel, 25, and 'Messy' Mitch Taylor, 27 and Paige Thorne, 26, are also some of the names in the mix.

Meanwhile, we recently told how Michael looked completely different as he transformed his his physique.

He also showcased his longer curly hair as he told how he was going back to his "old skool" look.

Recently, the reality star went on a two-month high protein, low-fat diet to achieve the look he wanted after being invited to take part in a two-day bodybuilding competition.

But in doing so, the former firefighter felt mentally drained and very alone.

Michael said: "I felt so low, I was isolating myself because I was training so hard and so focused on my food intake. I didn’t have the energy to converse with anyone.

"I didn't want to speak or go anywhere. I had energy to train and work only."

He continued to The Mirror: "As the process went on, my obsession with food grew. I'd be constantly thinking, 'Has this got enough protein and minimal carbs and fat in it?'

"Then straight after eating, I'd be thinking about the next meal."

According to eatright.org, disordered eating is used to "describe a range of irregular eating behaviours that may or may not warrant a diagnosis of a specific eating disorder".

Eating disorders come in many different forms and it's thought that around 1.25 million Brits suffer with one.

The NHS has stated that there are three common eating disorders - anorexia nervosa, bulimia and binge eating disorder.
