Calvin Harris Workout Routine

Harris sticks to a gym routine, even while on tour. His secret to looking good is pretty simply: Don’t drink, sleep well, eat well, and always ensure you have an ab roller along for the ride!

Although Harris is generally a private guy, one would speculate that his diet consists of plenty of protein, vegetables and limited sugar. Harris has even noted that living in L.A. has helped his diet as he can easily find food that is fresh and organic. When compared to the UK, he suggests that food options are much healthier in L.A., making it easier to eat healthy for the long-run.

Whatever Calvin Harris’ workouts consist of, he should definitely keep it up as he looks great! Harris went from a scrawny 20-something to a 31-year old fitness buff. His hard work is definitely paying off.
