But there&rsquo;s far more to Bugzy than meets the ear. The rapper, from Manchester, works on his body every bit as much as he works on his music, so much so he calls himself an athlete.&rdquo;Im naturally lean,&rdquo; begins Bugzy, who has secured sponsorship with PhD Nutrition. &ldquo;If I&rsquo;m not careful, I end up on 1-2 meals a day with my schedule and I just disappear!&ldquo;I get my meals supplied by Kettlebell Kitchen and PhD sort me out with all my shakes, supplements and bars, so when I&rsquo;m on the road I never fall short on my macros. People laugh at me for it, but when I&rsquo;m backstage I actually drink BCAAs rather than water, because performing is a workout- I&rsquo;m burning a lot of calories and I need to maintain my muscle mass. I always get my press-ups, squats and sit-ups in between numbers too, it actually keeps my energy up and stops me flagging.&rdquo;<img src="http://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/2609/312401/5bfe9453acf2b/1543410718609.jpg"" owidth=708 oheight=927" style="height:655px; width:500px" />Bugzy is currently on a 13-date tour, during which time he will use his stage performance as his cardio. But a typical day for the music star involves far more than the average body-conscious gym-goer.&ldquo;After I wake up, I have breakfast then do weights,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;I focus on one body part per session, then do a core workout, then eat again and have a shake. I do a second session that comprises skipping and shadow boxing and bag work/sparring. I really enjoy boxing and it keeps my fitness levels high. After that, I eat again. It&rsquo;s pretty much eat, train, sleep, repeat when I&rsquo;m not on the road to be honest. I am trying to bulk and build muscle and training helps with my performance. A healthy body is a healthy mind.&rdquo;Bugzy currently consumes 4,000 calories or more every day in order to maintain his body weight and muscle mass. He follows a high protein, low sugar and moderate carb diet.<img src="http://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/2609/312401/5bfe9453acf2b/1543410718689.jpg"" owidth=708 oheight=611" style="height:431px; width:500px" />&ldquo;In-between meals I keep my protein and calories up by having fast-acting protein supplements from my sponsor PhD,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;I love their bars, flapjacks and shakes. It doesn&rsquo;t matter to me that I am a professional musician, I will continue to live like an athlete, it&rsquo;s what drives me and helps me to make good music.&rdquo;
