Day In The Life Of Professional Chef and Hybrid Athlete | What I Eat In A Day | Ep.9

What I Eat in a Day for Hyrox Training
In this episode, Dan dives into his daily nutrition and training routine as he preps for Hyrox.
The day starts with a speed session in the snow, followed by a detailed breakdown of his meal timing, macro distribution, and how he incorporates supplements like creatine, electrolytes, and pre/probiotics. Dan also shares his go-to protein powders and strategies for staying consistent with meal planning.
Later in the day, he heads to Meatpacking Athletic to train with his team and tackle a lifting session as part of his Block 2 Hyrox training.
Throughout the video, Dan emphasizes the importance of eating for performance over aesthetics and shares practical tips to help you stay on track with your fitness goals.

Great vlog Dan! Looking forward to all of your others! And the Red Rising series is the best, but it’ll definitely cut into your sleep…

[@danchurchillcooks]

Mate! that book is elite, you are right. I do not want to put it down. I will say, my time in bed has increased significantly!

[@danielkarimi4404]

Kinda sick, you are using the beat of my brothers music! Awesome video man!

[@tarahamblyn6344]

The highlight of my Sunday Mornings (based in NZ here) I've finally purchased your eat like a legend book, and I can't wait to receive it!

[@MuseFoxs]

Man your oatmeal always looks so bomb, I’m gonna have to try and make that! 🔥 Haven’t had it in so long, since I switched it for beef and eggs, to prioritise getting more fats in my diet 😅 Love the FDOE for meal inspiration, just prepped all my lunch and dinner ingredients for the week, 2.5 kg of potatoes, bunch of eggs, 1 kg of beef, and veggies down 🤝

[@danchurchillcooks]

mate that is someone who is dialed in!!!! Well done mate! yeah that power bowl is just a joy to create! Keep those meal prepping days coming... you are getting the reps in!

[@daniellucarelli1120]

Hey Dan thanks for the great content, it’s truly great insights, knowledge and understanding 🙏🏼 Do you feel hungry one hour apart… from shake to breakfast? I’m switching my habits as of right now! 🙌🏼

[@danchurchillcooks]

Gday mate! Thanks for the love. I am pretty hungry coming back from my runs, and the shake ties me over, by the time i get to breakfast I am hungry but super hungry and that is the feeling I want to be at. Being ahead of the impulsive craving, where you have sufficient energy in your system, but are getting ahead on what you need more of. I would say if you are doing doubles like I am consistently your body will naturally get hungrier quicker. A lot will also depend on your basal metabolic rate. The biggest lesson is, listen to your body... if you are stuffed, do not eat more. Listen to your body. Let me know how i can help more my dude

[@madisonrichards8108]

Would love to see more nutrition, focus videos! And one focused on your wife would be super interesting to see the differences in fueling and nutrition

[@danchurchillcooks]

Hi Madison! for sure. So you would like to see how I eat in comparison to her and see for the intention of contrast? Keen on this one, let me know!

[@engineeringmadeasy]

[@danchurchillcooks]

[@antoninoamico544]

Hi I’ve noticed you wear a whoop and Apple Watch together which do you think tracks your overall health better? And great video love this kind of content 👍🏼

[@danchurchillcooks]

Cheers mate! So i wear apple watch for life and also tracking my paces and run specific workouts. I use Whoop for a more comprehensive status of my health and recovery. eg. it tracks my sleep a lot more accurately as well as my strain and stress, where as the watch is better at telling me how i am tracking in a run, paces etc.... let me know if you want a link to whoop mate! I have had one for 5 years

[@GDial2x]

How much of time gap is between your first and second workout session ?? Nice content 👌

[@danchurchillcooks]

Gday mate! First workout is at 7am second is around 3 30... so i would say around 7 hours! Do you do doubles?

[@mahimaruf9780]

How many hours of sleep do you usually get??

[@danchurchillcooks]

Great question! I aim for at least 8 hours of time in bed... but ideally get into bed at 9... up around 5:15-5:30. I have noticed how important those early hours are for me

[@mahimaruf9780]

@danchurchillcooks how did you manage 8 hours while being an executive chef and working out?

@@danchurchillcooks na, was just curious, great content from NZ!

[@donvito7344]

What is a hybrid athlete? I have seen so many KZbinrs and people in the comments using this term, I dont know what that means

[@danchurchillcooks]

Gday mate! Hybrid refers to the performance across multiple disciplines. For example Crossfit is a Hybrid sport, but strength dominant. Where as Hyrox is hybrid but run dominant. Triathletes are naturally hybrid, but someone who loves to run but also strength train is training in a hybrid modality. I hope this helps!

i know this has nothing to do with the video, but i kept seeing Vibrations of Manifestation by alex lane mentioned in the comments of so many videos and even heard friends talk about it. i was skeptical, but i finally gave it a try, and honestly, it’s been life-changing. two weeks later, i’m finally in the position i’ve been manifesting for years-better opportunities, more confidence, and everything just feels aligned. had to share this with you.

[@babubhaisolanki5915]

this has nothing to do with the video, but i’ve been seeing comments about this book for weeks, and i couldn’t ignore it anymore. Vibrations of Manifestation by alex lane was hard to track down, but it’s honestly the best decision i’ve made. it’s crazy how fast things changed for me-two weeks after reading it, i landed the opportunity i’d been waiting for and started feeling more in control of my life. i just had to tell someone about it

[@KL-ii1xt]

nice to see a fellow professional porcelain killer 🙃👀🚽.....

[@danchurchillcooks]

hahahahahaahahahahahaahahahahahahahah this is hilarious

[@rajveergamer2288]

not related to the video at all, but i had to tell y’all about this. i kept seeing Vibrations of Manifestation by alex lane mentioned everywhere-in youtube comments, even random convos with friends. i caved and read it, and wow. within two weeks, i started seeing my dream life come together. it’s not about wishful thinking-it actually teaches you how to align your energy to make it happen.
