Al Nassr’s nutrionist Jose Blesa has revealed the diet secrets of Cristiano Ronaldo and says the football star wears two rest meters: The fitness ring and the bracelet.
“Cristiano has a very good nutritional education and eats a wide variety of foods to have energy for every game and training, without any strange intervention that is in fashion” José Blesa told the Spanish newspaper Ideal.
The nutritionist also reckons Ronaldo’s fitness regimen is spreading across the team: “Since he’s been here, all the players have been training harder and following a stricter diet … I have not seen a club like this in which the players improve practically 90% in their body composition every time I see them: they have less fat, more muscle and they do all the exercises at their fingertips. It is a luxury to work there.”

Blesa said he was curious like most others how it would be to work with a star like Ronaldo. “He is the best footballer in history or one of the two best. I was uncertain, like everyone else, about what it was going to be like to work with him and if the club was going to change a lot, but I haven’t found a more professional footballer than him.
“Every conversation with him is a learning. We met and talked about his diet, about how he understands the importance of this and rest for performance. He wears two rest meters: the ring and the bracelet.”
