I previously wrote about the eating habits of some of the best athletes in the world, including Tom Brady, Roger Federer, LeBron James, Serena Williams, and more.
For Part 2 in this series, I’m focusing on some of today’s top superstars across a range of major sports. Read on to learn about the diets of Rafael Nadal, Aaron Judge, Aaron Donald, and Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Rafael Nadal
Rafael Nadal is one of the greatest tennis players to ever live, winning an all-time record 22 Grand Slam titles, including 14 French Opens. He is still at the top of his game after more than 20 years on tour, winning the first 2 Grand Slams of 2022 (Australian Open and French Open) and making it to the semifinals of Wimbledon before pulling out of the tournament with an injury.
One of the keys to Nadal’s success and longevity has been his eating regimen. Growing up and still residing in Mallorca, Spain, Rafa incorporates many elements of the Mediterranean Diet.
When asked what he typically eats to train for a big match, Nadal quickly replied, “Always seafood.”
