At 7 a.m., according to Drake’s trainer, Jonny Roxx, the singer hits the gym for circuit training that consists of push-ups, dips, and pull-ups. We know he sticks to his fitness regime because he always posts about it on Instagram.
When training, Drake stays away from pasta and other refined carbs. “Italian food is probably one of our whole team’s favorite [things],” Roxx told Glamour. “But cutting down on that really helped with his cutting phase.”
After a light but healthy breakfast, Drake meets with his choreographer Tanisha Scott who puts him through his dance paces. Tanisha told Elle, “From my perspective, it’s just whatever moves that you do, you have to do these challenging moves that just switch it up.” Her cardio dance routines are designed for enjoyment while working out.
