The defender was snapped by the pup-arazzi as he did some sprinting drills on Wednesday morning.
Jones appeared to be timing himself on his Smart watch as he worked up a sweat ahead of his return to Carrington.
During the lockdown, Jones was spotted enjoying a leisurely stroll near his home in Cheshire.
But it's back to business for the 28-year-old after Boris Johnson confirmed the Premier League can return on June 1.
Paul Pogba, Anthony Martial, Victor Lindelof and Andreas Pereira were also seen training on a nearby field on Tuesday.
The United first-team stars completed a series of sprinting drills before brushing up on their ball skills.
