Given that Simon broke his wrist by falling off his bike, it's no surprise that the music mogul didn't take advantage of Soho Farmhouse's iconic bikes while at the Oxfordshire retreat. Instead, he opted for the much safer, more tranquil activity of walking.

In the photos shared by Terri, Simon looks in remarkably good shape, with toned biceps peeking out from his t-shirt. One fan even commented, writing: "I hope that Simon has recovered well."

While walking might not burn as many calories as Simon's former favourite activity, cycling, it's still good exercise, especially if you dream of toned legs.

"One of the most important (yet underrated) exercises to get toned legs is walking," says David Wiener, who works with fitness app Freeletics. "Walking has so many different mental and physical health benefits and is incredibly important if you want toned legs.

"I always recommend that if you can walk somewhere, then walk! Swapping that 10-minute car journey for a 20-minute walk can truly be the difference in not only leading a healthier lifestyle, but helping get amazing toned legs."
