Conor McGregor works out in gym in full cast just two weeks after suffering sickening leg break in Poirier defeat
CONOR McGREGOR is back working out in the gym - just two weeks after breaking his leg in a horror loss to Dustin Poirier.
The Irish UFC star posted several photos on Instagram showing him pumping iron with his leg in a full cast.
McGregor captioned it: "Life is not about what happens to us. But how we handle what happens to us!
"Let’s go team, God Bless. Still grinding!"
The 32-year-old had an operation on his broken tibia suffered in the trilogy loss to Poirier at UFC 264 in Las Vegas.
McGregor broke his bone late in the first round of the fight and couldn't continue.
He left the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on a stretcher.
But he is refusing to call time on his career - and is chasing a FOURTH fight against Poirier.
Speaking after his second defeat to the American, McGregor said: "Dustin, you can celebrate that illegitimate win all you want but you've done nothing in there.
"That second round would've shown all. Onwards and upwards we go. We dust ourselves off, we build ourselves back, and we come back better than ever."

McGregor also recently showed off his giant leg cast to pal Justin Bieber.
With his leg heavily bandaged, McGregor sipped Proper No12 whiskey alongside singer Bieber as he soaked in the glorious Beverley Hills sunshine.
The 33-year-old captioned the image: "JB and Big Foot, we rule Beverly Hills!
"God bless my brother! Backed by the highest power!
"Huge congrats on your @balenciaga campaign and your @drewhouse!
"Can’t wait to get to the show tomorrow! Legends Unite! #ProperPopstarz #BreakfastThenTifannys @justinbieber @properwhiskey."
But any revenge he is plotting against Poirier might be some time down the line.
UFC chief Dana White believes McGregor could be out of the octagon for A YEAR as he recovers from the injury.
