yes, he is so healthy that he can be even the best in the world...Looks very healthy, good hairline. Even though tennis is very taxing on the body and his diet contains a lot of fiber and pufas.
His opponent today was Roger Federer who is 37. I bet Federer eats a diet of something similar in nature. And he played a five hour marathon ‘match of lions’ against Djokovic today. It was a real brutal scrap between two. Quite amazing how a 37 year old that probably eats quite a bit of PUFA has that sort of stamina, yet me (also at 37), who eats correctly (apparently) and has been vigorously reducing PUFA in my tissues for five years cannot even run 100 meters without feeling like I am about to die (hence I don’t do it lol).
Maybe these sportsman just have something in-built in them that makes them way more resilient than the guys (like me) who hang around on this forum. I guess we’re the unlucky ones (health wise).
I also don’t think Djokovic’s age is anything to be scoffed at. He’s 32, which isn’t young for a tennis player. Most players are declining by this age. Especially at the incredible intensity that Djokovic, Nadal (who is mid to late 30’s too) and Federer play at. What’s their secret?
Maybe they are all taking things ‘discreetly’ which doesn’t flag up on modern screenings for things. Not saying they are cheats, but it wouldn’t surprise if most sportsman are taking things to enhance their careers and performances (which don’t show up on tests).
Thing is with someone like this, ‘metabolic issues’ probably won’t looks like ‘getting fat’.. society doesn’t really see it as anything else.. but yes, I agree with you.Same ole story. I don't really care about the diet patterns or "nutritional advices" of individuals under 35, and actually trust more around 40 and up. Not to say all 40 and up know definitively. Revisit him in about 10 years, he'll probably have metabolic issues just as well.

even if he ate shitloads of pufa and sat in front of a computer for the last 30 years that hairline would be exactly the same. its genesLooks very healthy, good hairline. Even though tennis is very taxing on the body and his diet contains a lot of fiber and pufas.
he eats a lot of dates during matches for the sugar contentWell he eats some carbs, id say around 200g. Other than that, his diet is mostly PUFAs and grains. I don't see any benefits what so ever to eat his diet.
I see now, serena wiliams is also no1, and plant based...
Once i took ephedrine, aspirine and cofein, what a day :)))If I take ephedrine I can work out all freaking day and feel like a demi-god. No food required
The reason you feel that way because of your current diet. I followed RP for over 5 years. (I also have about 200 emails from him..just saying.)His opponent today was Roger Federer who is 37.

Can you describe your diet?The reason you feel that way because of your current diet. I followed RP for over 5 years. (I also have about 200 emails from him..just saying.)
I eat a similar diet to this guy now..PUFAs are good in moderation when they come from whole foods- plus lower fructose intake- that's only my personal opinion. You know what's best for you.
Seems to me like a high PUFA diet, even if it's from natural foods. The amount of fructose is also, IMO, too small, especially for an athlete. I hope he's taking a calcium supplement, because erasing dairy from his diet without eating copious amonuts of bok choy or other high calcium greens or supplementing with the mineral and hoping that things turn out fine is wishful thinking. The amount of calories is likely too small for an athlete, considering that he doesn't seem to eat much fat. Finally his saturated fat intake is very low, since it seems like he avoids it and tries to only eat "safe"( read toxic) fats. Since playing tennis is such a demanding task, he should probably look into these factors and other ones too, lest his health collapse in the near future.
