TOM BRADY’S SECRETS FOR
SUCCESS: VEGAN DIET AND NON-TRADITIONAL TRAINING
Regardless of who you were
rooting for in the Super Bowl last Sunday (February 5 2017), you can’t deny
that there were some pretty impressive plays on the field that night.
The other thing I can say is
that Tom and I both attended the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, which means
I naturally have an affinity for his work ethic.
Since that game, even casual
football fans now know Tom Brady as the greatest quarterback in the
history of the game, securing five Super Bowl rings and nearly a
dozen other records.
But stats aside, there’s one
thing that many sports fans don’t know about Tom Brady: he swears by plant-based
foods.
Last
year, Boston.com interviewed Tom Brady’s personal chef, Allen
Campbell, who told the world about what the football powerhouse eats and why.
As a chef, Campbell was obsessed with plant-based diets before they were
trendy.
He introduced his food
philosophy to Brady and his family, which is “that a plant-based
diet has the
power to reverse and prevent disease.” Campbell also shared, “So, 80 percent of
what they eat is vegetables. [I buy] the freshest vegetables. If it’s not
organic, I don’t use it.”
While 80 percent plant-based is, of course, not a true vegan diet, it’s still an impressive commitment
that contributes to the 39-year-old’s longevity on the field. He sticks to a vegan diet for most of the year but adds some lean meat in the
winter months. He’s never had a problem maintaining the
lean muscle mass
required to be competitive on the field.
This is the kind of thing I
wish more vegans would appreciate, this lifestyle/diet
doesn’t have to be an all-or-nothing thing. As a society trying to wrap its
mind around how to start eating better, any step in the right direction with going
plant-based is
positive.
Brady didn’t adopt the vegan lifestyle by accident. Everything he does, from nutrition to training and his sleep schedule, is carefully
calculated.
Brady has
shared that he uses resistance bands about 90 percent of the
time instead of lifting weights and switches up his workout routine on land, sand, and water. He sticks to
high reps and typically trains twice per day in the off-season and three times
per day in-season.
Brady has also practiced muscle
pliability training with his Chinese medicine-trained coach, Alex Guerrero.
Bodywork exercises like these improve flexibility, mobility, muscle tone, and
range of motion.
He meditates for heightened self-awareness, does
brain exercises to improve his memory and sharpness, and sleeps by 9 pm in
special athlete recovery wear. All of these natural methods of training
complement the vegan lifestyle perfectly.
Dedication and consistency are
what has kept Brady so level-headed all these years, both in his diet and
training regimen. He’s gotten stronger and faster with age, which is certainly
something that not every professional football player can say.
Brady even released a cookbook
with meat-free favorite recipes and started selling his own brand of vegan snacks last year. Vegan
cookbooks have been particularly hot lately, so it’s little surprise that
Brady jumped on this trend. Vegan snacks in the box include cacao goji
energy squares, buffalo almonds & ranch cashews, and dark cocoa coconut.
Tom Brady is just one of
many famous athletes and
bodybuilders who
has embraced the vegan lifestyle, but he’s an excellent example of what
the human body can do when fuelled by plants. Steal his secrets for success,
and there’s no telling what you can accomplish too.
