Callum Scott Howells shared another glimpse into his impressive fitness progress as he shared a photo dump from a trip to his native Wales.
The actor embraced his foray into health and wellness while enjoying a shirtless countryside hike with his friend, Anais Gallagher, daughter of Oasis legend Noel.
Taking to Instagram with some snaps, the It’s a Sin star flexed his biceps against a picturesque lake backdrop.
He wore only a pair of shorts, trainers and a sweatshirt tied around his waist, writing, “caru ti cymru,” in his caption – which translates to, “Love you, Wales.”
Dedication to fitness and health
Callum stunned fans last week after posting a rare gym selfie to the platform.
The star of screen and stage posted the image to his Stories, writing another Welsh caption: “bore da. up the bluebirds” – a nod to the Cardiff City football club chant.
The new posts mark a side to Scott Howells fans haven’t often seen – the result of a growing dedication to health and fitness amid a busy London lifestyle. From nights out at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern to A-list dinners with Elton John, he’s found time to prioritise his body.
Back in 2022, he spoke to Attitude over smoothies in a south London members’ bar while preparing for his role as the Emcee in Cabaret at the Playhouse Theatre.
Staying grounded
Even then, his focus on his body and stamina was clear. “After this hour, I probably won’t speak for the rest of the day,” he said, explaining how he protected his voice for the demanding role – a discipline that extended to his workouts and overall wellbeing.
Playing the Emcee, a physically and emotionally intense character, was “literally petrifying” for Scott Howells. “You go, ‘What’s the blueprint here? Where do I start? Where do I end? What the f**k goes in the middle?!’” he admitted.
Even amidst London nightlife, he found ways to stay grounded. He recalled his early city adventures: “All the guys lived here, and I didn’t; I’d come up randomly from Wales for nights out for the weekend… and crash with them.”
That energy, combined with his dedication to fitness, has clearly paid off – both on stage and in real life.
