After the Suns finished their game against the Nets on November 15, 2013 local time, the next game will be played on November 20, so the Suns can finally breathe a sigh of relief from the exhausting schedule.

"What's wrong? Fleicher, call me early in the morning? After the night's game, the Suns didn't immediately return to Phoenix, a group of hormonal athletes first went to a nightclub in Queens for a night of fun, and Li Mojie refused Frye's invitation because he was under age and went to bed early.

"Hey, where do you stay?" Fleischer asked.

"What's wrong at the Atmead Hotel?" Li Mojie got up from the bed, got dressed, and replied.

"Yes, I'm on the second floor for breakfast right now, come down and get it, we still have work to do, man!" Fleischer munched on something and slurred his words.

Ten minutes later, in the restaurant on the second floor of Atmead, Li Mojie picked up the plate and walked to where Fleichel was sitting after finishing the food on the buffet plate.

"50g of fresh vegetable salad, omelet with 100g of turkey, bacon, 60g of fresh apples and hash browns, right, this is a custom-made dish made for you by your team's nutritionist?" Fleischer counted the contents of Li Mojie's plate and said one by one.

"Well, Rick put a lot of thought into collecting the recipes of yellow athletes such as Yao Ming, Jeremy Lin, and Liu Xiang, as well as the recipes of James, Pierce, and others, and then customized them, which are currently the most suitable for me." Li Mojie said to Fleichel without raising his head while chewing slowly.

"Ness, man, that's the right thing to do. It's the first time I've seen such a self-controlled young man! Fleischl said with a smile and a thumbs up.

During the long NBA season, the density of games is quite high, with an average of three or four games played a week. In such a high-intensity, high-density game, it is not easy for NBA players to maintain their competitive form all the time. Scientific training is a necessary aid, but a reasonable diet is also absolutely essential.

When it comes to diet, there are no official rules in the NBA. After all, NBA players are not children, and they can't always take care of everything. Therefore, in the alliance, there will always be some examples of a decrease in physical condition due to not paying attention to the control of the diet. For example, Spurs' Dior has skyrocketed in weight every offseason, and in order to control Dior's weight, Spurs have to add a weight restriction clause to Dior's contract. Only if Dior keeps his weight within a certain range can he get his full salary.

Another example is Sallinger, who was abandoned by the Celtics and joined the Raptors. A large part of the reason for the decline in my career is that I can't eat properly and control my weight.

What everyone knows more is that James has always insisted on not eating pork, Liu Xiang before retiring, the daily diet is responsible for a special person, one of which is not to eat pork with high fat content, can only eat more fish, shrimp, crab and mushrooms containing high protein and a variety of nutrients, and try to eat less staple food.

The reason for all this is because among the meats, pork has the lowest protein content and the highest fat content. Therefore, the meat on the market can be roughly divided according to the different calories: pork is larger than mutton, larger than beef, larger than duck, larger than fish; Chicken.

Poultry meat is a high-protein and low-fat food, especially chicken has a 13% higher lysine content than pork. The most nutritious way to eat chicken is to boil it in soup, which is good for removing viruses that invade the respiratory tract and relieving cold symptoms. Goose meat and duck meat are not only low in total fat, but also have a different chemical structure from pork, mainly unsaturated fatty acids, which can protect the heart. Fish is one of the best types of meat. Its meat is delicate and easier to digest and absorb than livestock meat and poultry meat.

This is actually in line with our foodie saying, "Four legs are not as good as two legs, two legs are not as good as one leg, and one leg is not as good as no legs." ”

In contrast, nutritionists recommend that people use beef instead of pork. Because the composition of beef is closer to the needs of the human body than pork, it can improve the body's ability to resist diseases. Beef is low in fat but rich in conjugated linoleic acid, a potential antioxidant that can effectively combat tissue damage caused by sports such as weightlifting. In addition, linoleic acid can also act as an antioxidant to maintain muscle mass, which is one of the secrets of athletes to stay in shape.

Exactly how to eat a healthy diet in your daily life will certainly vary from person to person, but nutritionists recommend that an important principle to follow when eating meat is that it is better to eat animal meat than poultry meat, and poultry meat is better than fish meat.

It's not hard to stick to a regular recipe for a few days, but it takes a lot of perseverance to stick to it for a few years, or even a dozen years, and just eat a few things. James decided to abandon the low-carb diet in 2015, partly because the threat of low blood sugar is always present, and on the other hand, he can't stand the monotony of the diet and wants to make some changes.

But there are many people in the NBA who still stick to their own diet.

Jeremy Lin, who is familiar to Chinese fans, is one of them. According to Jeremy Lin himself, he has largely avoided greasy food since his high school years and has never even eaten chicken skin, with meat and milk being the main components that make up his recipes. Jeremy Lin once revealed that he eats 5 eggs and a little turkey for breakfast, drinks protein powder drinks after training, salads, sandwiches and chicken for lunch, and eats macaroni chicken and protein powder drinks for dinner. In addition to these foods, Jeremy Lin drank 8 bottles of water a day. And his habits of life have not changed since the beginning of his career.

Of course, players like Jeremy Lin are not unique, and Ray Allen is quite strict about his diet. Allen has basically the same diet choices on game day, he never drinks, he doesn't gain weight at all even in the offseason, and he can still play a dragon dunk by the age of 40. Ray Allen himself once said, "As basketball players, our bodies are our capital, we need to eat the right things, and we need to get enough sleep and rest." We need to eat a diet that will guarantee our strength and condition. ”

Think of Ray Allen back then, and then look at Richard Jefferson and Vince Carter this season, if they weren't strict with themselves in terms of diet, it would be impossible to maintain such a great physical condition at such an advanced age.

Another NBA diet big guy is undoubtedly Steve Nash, who once revealed a whole set of his own diet.

Eat a certain amount of fruits, whole wheat bread, almond paste for breakfast. For lunch, eat a salad of grilled chicken or fish with vegetables and nuts. For dinner, grilled or baked fish or chicken, vegetable salad and coarse rice are also served. Usually pay attention to prepare snacks for yourself, almonds or cashew nuts, and drink plenty of water. When I need electrolytes, I consider it with coconut water, which has the highest electrolyte concentration.

However, in the CBA, the players frequently go out to play skewers and eat hot pot, without taking the details of these foods to heart, and there are many pictures on the Internet of players going out to drink and skewers during the game, including more big-name players. Of course, if it's an offseason indulgence, it's okay. But during the league period, it is a bit too unprofessional, and if you want to become a professional player, it is very important to keep your mouth shut. This also shows the gap between the CBA and the NBA to a certain extent.

"Thank you for the compliment, Erik, but you should be busy at the moment, do you have anything to ask me for?" Li Mojie raised his head, wiped his mouth and said.

"Of course, man, you're going to have your signature sneakers!" Fleischl cracked his mouth and laughed.
