How do the champions manage their diets? What do you need to eat to achieve your goals? It is crucial for athletes to avoid undereating as it provides the necessary fuel and nutrients to support their training, optimize performance, and promote muscle recovery. Insufficient calorie intake can lead to decreased energy levels, impaired recovery, compromised immune function, and hindered overall athletic progress.
Jason Grubb, a three-time Masters CrossFit Games champion, shares his nutrition and training routine. Weighing in at 203 lbs, Jason consumes 3400 calories per day to fuel his performance.
He starts with his signature bulletproof coffee, a blend of half-caf @BlackRifleCoffee, butter, MCT powder, creatine, and cinnamon.
For breakfast, Jason eats eight egg whites and two full eggs, scrambled, along with two cups of white rice. He also includes in-season fruits for a high carbohydrate intake.
Lunch consists of either chicken and rice or zero-fat high-protein yogurt and bananas.
After intense workouts, dinner includes a pound of ground beef or fish/chicken. The ground beef is made into four hamburger patties, served with cheesy rice.
To meet his caloric needs, Jason occasionally has another meal after dinner or indulges in a small bowl of ice cream.
