- I attempted consuming like Novak Djokovic for per week, following a plan specified by his 2014 e-book.
- Djokovic espouses the advantages of a gluten and dairy-free life-style, crediting it together with his success.
- I discovered the weight loss program bland and unappealing, and struggled with Djokovic’s shunning of all drinks besides water.
Novak Djokovic claims in his e-book “Serve To Win” that adopting a strict gluten and dairy-free weight loss program helped take him from the “brink of failure to the champion of the world.”
“Bodily, I could not compete,” wrote the 34-year-old. “Mentally I did not really feel like I belonged on the identical court docket as the most effective gamers within the sport.
“However then, lo and behold, I made some modifications and that reworked all the things.”
“This wasn’t magic,” he went on. “The work ethic had at all times been there, beginning with that six-year-old and his completely packed tennis bag.
“However all of a sudden there was an X issue, a change in my weight loss program that allowed my physique to carry out the way in which it was meant to.”
In my modest opinion, I would not say that I’m on the point of failure, nor do I maintain any ambitions (as a lot as it will good) to be a Grand Slam champion.
Nevertheless as a sports activities reporter, fan, and occasional tennis participant who has spent a very long time writing concerning the Serbian star, I assumed I might give his weight loss program a go, albeit just for one week.
This is how I received on.
