Fittest cricketers and their diet

Fitness and sports plays a long term relationship without any doubt, and cricket is in top list of fitness requiring sport! To play cricket, stamina and muscle strength are must needed in body to give the best. There are some cricketers who are best example to get motivated and who gives their best in maintaining their self. Lets see some of best fit players and their diet.

AB de Villiers

Whether it is record book or fitness blog you generally see the name in top pick remains same. African ODI and test leader , known as mr 360 is my one of the choice of fit cricketers.

One sentence is enough to describe this man's fitness" ABD has never missed a game till oct 2016 due to fitness or injury" However, he got injured in last year but made a solid comeback this month.

Secret of this is running. He is someone who has faith in running as much as possible to stay fit.He generally eats everything he likes, but maintains himself fit overall.



Virat Kohli 

Another name should be discussed here is unstoppable mr kohli. His dedication in gym and food is highly appreciated in all over world. Since i have written a isolated blog for him, i am not going to discuss about this one more time, but he deserves a  place in list of fit cricketers for sure.


Faf du plessis

Probably the most attractive guy regarding physique, not only in african team but in all other teamss too,FAF is my another pick here. We can clearly see his fitness and muscles from his charming look anytime!

Brown rice, oats and almonds plus fish and milk with honey:are african t20 leader's fav food. He always keeps distance with fat and stays on low fat over the year.

Fun side of faffie is he likes cooking very much and often cooks for his teammates in dressing room! 

MS DHONI 

Indian ex captain cool dhoni aka mahi is my another pic.Known for his big hits, this guy also likes too eat a lot but when on national duty, he maintains himself fit.

Juice, Oats and banana are the food that he loves too much. As per one report, he eats 20 bananas a day! He has protein drinks in his diet and maintains distance with drugs.



DALE STEYN

It seems fitness and african players have special relation with gym and fitness.YES IT IS!

Dale steyn is surely not a muscular personality but the reason of putting his name here is his STAMINA.

Bowls 4 continues over with speed of 145+  and still ready to go for next over" sayd his leader ABD on one of the press conference , that describes his stamina. He is someone who does not believe in having muscles.

When asked about his body and muscles , he says, build stamina, not muscles, you don’t need the body of Tarzan if you bowl like Jane!" Clearly , he is one of the fittest bowlers in cricket area. Chicken, fresh juices, eggs and tuna are always in his routine diet. He never tries something that effects his stamina.

As a  fan , we inspire from activities of our ideal. When it comes to fitness, we should inspire from their fitness levels too! This is the reason of writing this post. Well i hope you got some info and motivation to stay fit from this amazing cricketers. Keep reading this page for more!

VIRAT KOHLI : the FIT machine

Man who Just cracked 100 crore deal with a famous brand and got himself in a spotlight , yes , you got it right, i am talking about  VIRAT KOHLI : THE RUN MACHINE , well yes but today i am considering him as a FIT MACHINE as he is the fittest guy in indian cricket team ever.Lets see what he does in the gym and talk about his diet secret!

Kohli is inspiration for all of us not only in cricket, but the way he takes the fitness too. Starting with his gym,he goes to gym 5 days a week for minimum 2 hours daily. However, he recently suggested his fans that one hour daily workout is more than enough to stay fit.

He is someone who likes to take heavy weight and becomes out of his comfort zone. We can simply see in this pic of virat doing workout.

Virat recently accepted that he is a foodie guy but when it comes to fitness he gets his control on top over everything. Second most amazing thing about virat is his love towards drinking water! The brand which he takes water cost 500 rs per liter! He takes bottle everywhere he goes, including overseas series.

He has lots and lot of protein in his diet.Also, he always keeps walnuts and almonds as a healthy fat in his bag. That he can go for little refreshment anytime he wants!

When it comes to cheating meal, he generally never cheats the meal but if he likes to cheat with japanese dish SUSHI. Otherwise , fish and butter chicken with naan is something he likes to have.

He recently suggested his fans about fitness, Asking to improve immunity as more as they can and hit the gym with concentration  5 times a week. Remember he has also started gym chain called CHISEL in all over india.

Hence VIRAT is surely  a motivating personality about cricket and fitness. His team mate KL RAHUL just told reporters that kohli is first man to go out in the ground every morning and have some running.This simply describes dedication of virat which is inspiring.

So this was Kohli's routine and his schedule.Hope it motivates you and you start training today for better future. Keep reading this page for more updates.

What the hell are Nutrients ?

NUTRIENTS: We all know importance of this word.I keep saying Nutrition is 80% of your goal blah blah blah but what the hell is this? Lets study about little food science.

Basically , The food we eat contain nutrients. They are essential to our body to keep functioning. Nutrients are used to produce energy,detect and respond to environment surroundings,excrete wastes,breathe,grow and reproduce.

Mainly six basic thing required to our body to keep functioning are  : Protein , carbs, fat, Vitamins,minerals and water.

We can classify the nutrients into two types mainly:

MACRO AND MICRO NUTRIENTS

Macro nutrients are something we need in larger amount. These are PROTEIN, CARBS AND FAT. Water is also macro nutrient as it needed in large amount per day, but, that is something that does not have any calories.

Similarly, Micro nutrients are something that our body wants in less quantity. These are vitamins and minerals.

There are 16 essential minerals and 13 vitamins.

When we say about Selenium,zinc,iron,iodine,calcium,magnesium,potassium,sodium , we are talking about minerals.

Vitamins can be fat soluble or water soluble. Water soluble vitamins are not stored in our body. These are vitamin C and B. Hence it is said that fruits like orange are best for any goals.They not gonna harm you at all

WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT?

As we know food is everything that keeps you healthy, you also need to learn about micro and macro nutrients in order to keep your self healthy and non dependent.
While making diet, these are the things to consider.Thus, knowing all these will surely help you to build a success giving diet.

Then , plan your diet according to your goal. I mean for fat loss, you need more protein and low carbs, and high carbs for muscle building. 

Count Calories

Counting calories is the first step that you should take to make your diet. 

Ideally, For fat loss process you need to cut your calories you are taking today.That will force your body to take fat as a fuel. 

Muscle building needs high calorie diet. So increase the calorie you are taking today.

FAT LOSS : 1800-2000 cal / day

Muscle Building : 3200-3500 cal/day

Have five six meals a day. Make sure you get enough protein and carbs , without ignoring healthy fats.

Have healthy meals like oats, peanut butter, beans , whey,chicken breast , almonds , egg whites , paneer in different combinations. 

Include vitamins and minerals rich food. Also see the factors like iron,anti oxidants ,fiber. Have as many as possible! 

MEDICAL CONDITIONS
