How to eat to look like a shredded gymnast?
Many people ask about this topic, so in this video, I'm going to share some thoughts.
To be honest, I don't know what kind of miracles some people expect or what they think gymnasts eat that other people don't.
However, here are some thoughts to consider.
Gymnasts are often mentioned as superhumans due to their performance.
Their lean physique, endurance, performance, and mental focus are indeed unique.
Now, what do you think such an athlete needs to eat?
Do you think they live on fast food and snacks, eating whatever and whenever?
Well, not really. I could bring up the car and fuel analogy. Supercars are usually filled with higher quality, premium fuel to maximize performance and engine lifespan.
The same is true for gymnasts or athletes in general. I don't think there's anything surprising in that.
This is why I said earlier that I don't know what kind of answer people are expecting to this question.
Maybe they're looking for some sort of relief or excuse, like "of course, gymnasts also eat all over the place, but since they train a lot, it doesn't matter, so feel free to eat any junk you want"
It doesn't work that way, and a poor diet can never be "out-trained", because even if you consume enough energy to maintain your weight and not gain fat, your health and performance won't be the best in the long run.
I'm not saying there aren't examples of this, I'm sure there are athletes who cheat or don't eat completely clean, but for the best ones, their diet is usually top-notch as well.
However, there's a lot to learn from the schedule and eating habits of gymnasts.

I think its important to highlight if your starting point is skinny its important to have a small surplus in order to build muscle for these tasks, or plateau will occur. I started out really skinny myself and couldnt understand why i didnt gain stronger. I was afriad to bulk because of how it might effected my relativ strenght. Now im 14kg heavier and never felt lighter and stronger. Nice video overall! 💪

Yep, I've always been the type to forget to eat. Upped my eating and added 6kg in 6 months 😊. Tried the restricted eating and fasting, in one way I felt good but couldn't increase in strength. The Ayurvedic system has some good recommendations on food and eating advice for body types.

This very much echoes the ideas discussed by Michael Pollan in his ‘In Defence of Food’ book which is a great read. He states the book’s main idea which is ‘eat food, not too much, mostly plants’ and then goes quite in depth discussing how we as a society (he focuses on the US society mostly though) got into the current situation and why it may be suboptimal regarding public health, and what are the ways for an individual to eat well and to stay healthy.

Some of my best workouts happen when I haven't eaten in 40 hours or so. I become more flexible and have better balance, especially for handstand pushups and press handstands. Abdominal compression is way better too, so I can do skin-the-cats without my feet touching the bar. Yesterday, for the first time, I did an L-sit to handstand on blocks that were only 6 cm high. I definitely couldn't have done it with food in my stomach! Once I finished that session, though, it was time to eat!

Great tips Adam, especially the questions you ask yourself before eating junk food. Another good tip before these temptations is to imagine your body as an organic machine and imagine what that food does to your inner workings. I bet you won't imagine a good result especially with junk food.

Here in the US, we have a new official food pyramid chart for the public to reference and memorize. It was created by the Nutrition Departments of ivy league universities like Tufts and Harvard. It's brilliant! Even though I have a graduate degree in human nutrition, I never understood that a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup is actually 3 levels higher in nutrition then a organic chicken breast. Since you have significant influence over thousands of people around the world, Adam, you must study our guiding light document and spread the sage words of research scientists in the US who sold their souls. By the way, chocolate flavored Cocoa Puffs cereal is rated higher than fresh vegetables & all types of meat. If only more athletes knew these newly revealed secrets!

Very interesting video 👍 I'm on a constant 18/6 schedule, but I wouldn't call it fasting, because in the course of the week I'm eating enough calories for maintaining my bodyweight, which is as it should be since I'm definitely lean enough, especially for my age of 53, and currently I don't want to risk losing muscle mass.

It is not a one size fits all as individuals goals are different, dietary requirements too. I am in the ‘eat healthy’ high quality camp. Yet this approach might not always lead to one’s desired goals as I discriminate and eliminate some foods which my body could well use to get me to the aesthetics and weight I’d like. Folks wanting to achieve a desired physique would do well in self experimenting and acquiring knowledge from different sources to help them find best sustainable fit for them. Also taking tests to determine any deficiencies may help too. Happy training, eating and importantly resting!!!

A lot of foods may not contain anything harmful at first glance but then you look at the health list thing and see “16 grams of sugar” on a food meant for healthy eating that’s only a single meal.
