Special diet Lewandowski prepares to beat both Messi and Ronaldo

In the survival match between Argentina and Poland taking place at dawn tomorrow, the confrontation between Lionel Messi and Robert Lewandowski will definitely be the top interest of fans. If Albiceleste owns an extremely burning Messi, the white eagles are no less competitive because they are in the Lewandowski squad. At 34, Lewandowski is a constant threat in front of goal.

In addition to his high-class scoring skills, the Polish striker also possesses a great physique thanks to regular practice. Besides, Lewandowski also has a strict diet plan prepared by his wife, Anna Lewandowska for her husband.

Anna Lewandowska was a bronze medalist at the 2009 Karate World Cup. She is also a personal trainer with a degree in nutrition. With the nutrition she'd learned, Lewandowska applied both her and Lewandowski's reverse diet: Start with dessert, followed by a selection of foods with high nutritional value. .

Specifically, the couple usually starts the meal with a brownie made with pure cocoa, then has rice with meat or fish and ends with an appetizer - be it soup or salad.

"Cake pies, brownies, spaghetti with vegetables, ice cream, avocado, salads... We also love to eat high quality fish dishes. After a day of work, we will drink beetroot smoothie with cinnamon. or Cayenne pepper We never eat foods that contain carbohydrates and proteins at the same time. We only choose foods that are rich in nutrients and are lactose free. Also important is that we do not touch fried foods and fastfood."

Another difference in the meal of the Lewandowskis is the tuna breakfast, which provides omega-3 fatty acids, a series of B vitamins and fat-soluble vitamins for optimal muscle growth and fat loss. and quickly recover the body after hours of activity. Even when the whole team gathered in Qatar, Lewandowski still adhered to this diet.

Foods containing gluten and lactose are absolutely not on the list of Lewandowski breakfast items. Before each match, Lewandowski's wife also prepares her husband dragon blood brown rice with spices such as thyme, salt, turmeric, star anise, pine nuts, purified butter and black cumin. Besides, milk and cereals are replaced with almond milk, pure dark chocolate, coconut milk, vegetables and rice milk.

The late meal will be rice tea to increase carbohydrates and glucose to restore physical strength and energy. On the days that Lewandowski has to play, he will have to add a large amount of protein (tuna, chicken, almonds, avocado ...) to quickly recover from the impact on the pitch.

Lewandowski's partner also suggests that vegetables and avocados are essential foods in the recovery process. Some vegetables even bring more than expected effects such as broccoli, zucchini, lettuce, carrots or spinach. She also emphasizes that foods containing glycogen will reduce feelings of fatigue. Therefore, Lewandowski often prepares oatmeal snacks to be consumed 3 hours before the start of the match. Between rounds, he'll use energy bars made of cocoa, syrup, cranberries, and coconut. After the match, natural sports drinks or cocktails, coconut milk combined with fruit will help the Barcelona striker relax.

As a child, Lewandowski was rejected by many clubs because he was too stunted and short, forcing him to undergo special bodybuilding training up to 6 hours a day. Success came to Lewandowski with determination and strong will, overcoming physical limitations. In addition, the special diet that his wife built for him also contributed to helping him maintain his peak performance despite turning 34 years old.

In the upcoming match against Argentina, Lewandowski will still be the number 1 hope in Poland's attack. This will be a life-and-death match, deciding the next ticket of either team.
