Here is a great article from Laker Nation interviewing Kobe Bryant on how changes in his nutrition have been pivotal to his overall success this season.
Kobe says in the article:
“My Achilles heel! I only started really focusing on my nutrition a few years ago. I started experiencing low energy and was feeling bloated. Then it hit me: ‘Kobe you’re not 25 anymore’ (I once had pepperoni pizza before scoring 81 points). It was time to adjust, so the struggle began. Lots of veggies, fruits, fish and lean meats.”
hmmm sounds a lot like “The Paleo Diet”
Kobe goes on to say his taste buds really began to change for the better, and he started to crave the good stuff far more than the bad.
It seems like if one of the top athletes in the world is willing to give this healthy lifestyle a shot there must be something right about it.
So Fit Ones, I challenge you to really start focusing on the how your overall health is being benefitted by eating this way, and not treating this as just another diet.
What is one healthy change you want to make to your current lifestyle Fit Ones?
