Conor McGregor’s MMA Diet
“Conor’s diet consists of lean sources of protein: chicken, fish, salmon, beef, eggs,” Health Tristan Kennedy told ESPN. “Good complex carbohydrates. Good micro elements — your herbs, basil, oregano. All these things are incorporated into the diet as a whole.
“We have a great balanced diet. From multiple protein sources, multiple carbohydrate sources of wholesome foods. And that’s the key. I hear people these days, they’re focused on one food or two or three foods. The key is to get nutrients from all foods. And that’s what we incorporate and that’s what we do.”
Unlike many MMA fighters, McGregor is able to afford the most dedicated and specific nutrition advice for competition and he availed of the perfect mix of appreciation for the requirement of energy for training during his successful cut to the championship weight of 155lbs on Friday morning.
Kennedy explained how he set up McGregor’s plan for fight week’s to ensure he made the lightweight limit without draining himself.
Kennedy continued: “It’s all about calories when you’re trying to get down body composition. If you go too low on the calories, you’re going to have fatigue. You’re going to have muscle degeneration. You don’t want that. So it’s about the gradual step-down in calories and food. Then it’s about distributing the macros and having supplementation on point. And correlating all that nutrition to his training program.
“When I follow the data of the training program, his schedule coming up, we can design a plan on the daily — recipes catered to his liking and to his body composition. It’s not just, ‘Hey, here’s a piece of chicken — eat that.’
“We have full recipes catered to his liking and his body composition. We create a plan, we do a gradual descent in weight. On fight week, we’ll have specific protocols.
