AFL legend Ben Cousins proved he’s still got it on Sunday as he showed off his ripped figure during a gruelling workout.
Ben, 46, took to Instagram on Sunday to share a video of himself lifting weights in a small gym.
The former football player flaunted his bulging biceps in a black tank top and shorts, teamed with black sneakers and socks.
First, he performed an incline bench press with dumbbells, before moving on to target his shoulders and lats.
He also got down on the floor and did some old fashion medicine ball exercises.
‘Yes, good morning,’ he said as he entered the gym and put down his bag, before hitting the weights.

At the end of his workout, Ben said, ‘sometimes you’ve just got to drag yourself here…I feel better for it.’
In the caption to his clip, Ben also wrote, ‘Days when you don’t want to do it, are the days you should do it! Get after it.’
Ben has turned his turbulent life around after a heartbreaking battle with drug addiction and recently revealed that he is the ‘happiest he has ever been’.
His turnaround has also included working hard at rebuilding his relationship with his children – Angelique, 11, and Bobby, 13.
Last week, he took to social media to share news that his daughter was finishing primary school, followed by a photo of the lavish Christmas wish list she had given him.
‘My girl on her last day of primary school – goes too fast,’ he posted alongside a photo of the pair hugging.
‘And lot long after that photo this Christmas list from her landed. Help,’ he wrote.
In addition to designer clothes, money and jewellery, the pre-teen’s list also included a MacBook, a new mobile phone and stocked mini fridge.

Ben played 238 games and booted 205 goals for West Coast between 1996 and 2007, winning the premiership in his penultimate season in Perth.
The former midfielder captained the Eagles from 2001 to 2005, securing the club’s best and fairest award in four out of those five seasons.
He was suspended by the club in March 2007 – just six months after the grand final triumph over Sydney – for alleged substance abuse and sacked six months later after being arrested for drug possession and refusing to submit to a blood test.
He returned to the AFL in 2009 with Richmond, before retiring at the end of the 2010 season.
He was jailed on six separate occasions in 13 years and spent seven months behind bars in 2020, when he apparently decided enough was enough.
He is now on the right path and is reading the news for Seven in Western Australia, and recently appeared on Dancing With The Stars.
Ben has said he only regrets how long it took to get clean.
