This is what he eats when he's cutting weight. Now it makes sense.
men's health going full retard for not explaining the most important details about this diet.
He didn't say this what he eats when he's cutting. It's probably waaaay too many carbs, good carbs, but carbs to me a cutting diet. This is one of the most macro balanced diets i've seen presented on youtube.
Sharif Cavil it’s definitely a cutting weight diet
@@S.C.-wo8hq He's an Olympic gold medalist, obviously it's not too many carbs. He trains multiple times a day he needs carbs. Hes not a body builder - completely different diets.
@@matmaism Got ya. It definitely is a very balanced diet.
Calling Jordan Burroughs as just an olympic wrestler is a monumental understatement
oloymanidol1 What else would you call him
@@micvili7527 even he does not know😂😂😂
oloymanidol1 guys pretty much the best wrestler of all time 😭
Freddy Gomez haha no.
1 Olympic gold and 4 world championships is no where near best ever.
That was actually so simple and realistic for most people to do if they want to try and eat healthier but still have energy for the gym.
I don't know if I'd agree with you. It feels a little low in calories and protein to me. His choice of vegetables and organic produce is really good tho, u would struggle to be nutrient deficient on this diet which is good. But I'm quite tall so this diet wouldn't help much I'd lose mass and lose a lot of friends due to my mood.
Finally, the diet of an athlete and not some celebrity👍 I wish more athletes were interviewed on this channel.
I was thinking the same thing!
Definitely 💯
A very balanced, efficient, nutrient dense diet thats also delicious yet simplistic. Best of luck to Jordan Burroughs in the future, keep killin' it.
This is his cutting weight meals. He said hes usually 7 8 pound over his 160 weight class. No duh he eats more
He said it in the very beginning they probably missed that
7-8 is nothing in terms of weight cutting. Dude just has a real balanced, efficient diet and is super lean.
Chris Robbins you ever have to cut weight dude? Thats shits hard asf! If you did i bet you were a heavyweight or lightweight
Jesus is Fake I was an all-state wrestler and I cut weight all the time back then. It sounds like this is what Jordan eats when he’s training, if not all the time (he’s probably always training anyway). He’s smart about weight cutting, which is why his diet is so clean and that he’s so lean, so that at the end he only needs to shed several lbs of water weight. He keeps himself healthy, lean and stable all the way up to where he needs to dehydrate himself for weigh-ins, which is how it should be done. It sounds like he’s always hovering at around 170.
Im normally 4 to 5
Love watching this guy. Cool to hear him speak about his food. He's got the whole package. Definitely an animal on the mat.
So far one of the best video on full day of eating so simple and to the point
This is a weight cut diet. His training burns more than he eats. No way he can gain weight with this type of diet
Why assume that he needs to gain weight?
He wants to maintain his weight.
Jean Claude it’s what roids he takes what really matters
Watchdog I love pirogi, are you Polish ? I first tried it in Poland. My local Tesco store also sell it now.
@kmden Rt with this diet you cannot even maintain body weight for someone like him.
I've been eating a very similar diet for about 6-7 weeks now. The smoothie in the morning is almost the exact same, I just skip the almond butter. Starting the day off with plant protein feels great, even if you're not vegetarian, I'd give it a try. A diet like this is sustainable, surprisingly cheap, and doable. I'm in some of the best shape of my life and this type of diet is absolutely to blame.
I'm gonna try it
I def will try this, thank you!
Thanks for your recommandation. I will try
Im a Boxer and striking Martial Arts myself, but I genuinely enjoy watching wrestling and see it as another Art. I've watched some of this guys matches and he's definitely a Marvel. I hope he goes farther than he ever planned. He inspires me to train wrestling myself.
I was just thinking as soon as the video started that I'd like to train in wrestling with him.
@Jesus is Fake no idea what you're trying to communicate. Please reread what you wrote and rephrase it.
His double leg is a thing of beauty, he hits people with it when they're expecting it!
JB is an awesome athlete and person. Thanks for this!!
He’s a great communicator and will undoubtedly make a great coach one day after his competitive days are over!
wow didn't even mention his name in the title pretty disrespectful
D4RK its in the fucking thumbnail already you sissy
D4RK nice try but it’s in the thumbnail
Don’t be gay. The sport is bigger than anyone in it. We want attention on our sport far more than the individual athletes
@@bellicose2037 Nope
@@ericsmusic5927 stfu clown ass bitch ass
Pure class! What an amazing role model!
Good thing he mentioned the word "cycle" early on.
lmao
Underrated comment
Thanks for introducing this athlete guys, seems really grounded compared to other blinged out athletes!
Funny because his saying is ‘all I see is gold’
Should change the title to: “What a World-Class Olympic Wrestler eats in a Day | Jordan Burroughs ”. Olympic in the title will push the video into YT’s Algorithm & putting his name in the title will help his image .
How is that algorithm working tho?
It does say in a day
Perfect fuel for leaning out and cutting weight 💯
absolutely an amazing athlete and thanks for the post
I want this guy to crossover and give MMA a go.. you never know how well of a crossover that could be - vice versa haha
Do A Champion Boxer Meals a Day Usually and In Camp for a Fight too please. This was Actually a Good Video
Those Nebraska boys got the food thing locked down! Thanks J.B. for the tips!
Would love to see a version of this meal plan that is more budget conscious. Smoothies, salmon and a variety of berries are luxuries. Not a criticism btw. Just would love to see a version of this that fits the budget of lower income households.
replace salmon with chicken, eat more veggies than him. keep the berries but buy frozen ones. blueberries are the most important by far. most healthy.
Boiled eggs, Vegetables & Fruits would easily replace them. You can remove the yolk if you want but they are full of vitamins. I tend to eat the whole egg.
What an absolute unit!
The force is strong with this one during breakfast.
No way thats only like 1500 calories. With his activity levels hes probably burning around 3000 calories a day, maybe more. He would shrink to bone if thats all he ate.
Aaron S. 3k? Doubt it. Probs no more than 2k.
@@DaPokeBoss it definitely has to be 3k . If we do nothing all day we can still burn around 1.4k
TheTriggaTv not true
If each training session is 1.5 hours for a total of 3 hours a day yeah I can see him needing a lot more food. This may not be all of it and not including supplements, protein shakes, and snacks
He is on cut, he say he got 7pound to lose. so yeah he's eating light
Im wondering where Jordan ranks in the all-time p4p rankings. Hes def top 5
This has helped a lot 👊🏻👊🏻
Love this dude.
JB The Goat! Keep making Jersey proud!
Go Jordan ! you are the man!!!!
Super healthy! I would defs only do salmon 3 days a week and eggs the other 3. Include maybe some beans, tempeh/tofu, nuts, herbs, quinoa. This is around max 1600 calories so probably eats double this in real life. But super clean I like it, could be a bit higher in fibre, magnesium and zinc
I was confused af when I saw men's health post a video with jb. mans a legend but only in wrestling and mma circles lol
The most disciplined athlete!
@3:09 Love it!
Jordan is the best to ever do it
Oh cool, i live in Lincoln, NE too
This man is a pure pro.
Just remember, you gotta train like him to get the results
Facts 💯
@Jesus is Fake That's just an excuse people use for being fat, or skinny with low muscle tone, while yes genetics play a impact, anyone can get built with proper diet and exercise.
@@pagopagojt0740 ur wrong and right. Anyone can achieve an OPTIMAL version of THEMSELVES, the genetic part is a major factor. You could train like JB and eat like him too but I guarantee you won't look like him. That's why all UFC fighters, weightlifters and athletes in general all look the same despite the fact that they're all eating similar food groups in similar ratios whilst training equally as hard. However, I agree sometimes steroids, PEDs and genetics are used as excuses for people not to push themselves.
Good Stuff!
Gonna use this to get down to 113s thx bro
The CHAMPION!!!
I wonder how much of the avocado does he put in that beginning shake.
I like how they typed it "Tumeric" like he said it lol
Jordan's a freak of nature
Wow! Love this diet.
The amount of carbs are surprisingly low for how he look.
Jordan Burroughs is the best of all time
If u look at “the Jordan Burroughs diet” video that team USA posted its more accurate to what he eats in the off season
That diet looks super healthy and clean
UltimateHibz it’s actually a terrible diet he’s eating enough to feed a rabbit. Do this diet long term your dick won’t work for lack of calories and therefore killing your hormonal profile. Also he takes a lot of steroids so
@@iman388 he's on the olympic team they get tested for steroids dumbass
Beast
What do they gain from lying/ misleading? I don't get it. There is no way he eats this little sustainably. I maintain my weight at 150 currently with 3500 cals daily. I train once, max twice a day. Crazy
I think they like to hide the fact that alot of athletes eat the same things, in the same quantities that regular joes do. Its just not as sexy if they show that the diet isnt very extreme.
Most likely what he eats when he is cutting weight. He said he walks around about 7-8 pounds over his competition weight.
There is another video of his off season diet, but it specifically says when he’s 7-8 lbs overweight for weigh ins this is what he’s eating. If you don’t understand, please stop.
Yeah for real spinach is so unhealthy. Google what oxalate is
You dickhead, learn how to listen. He is cutting weight because he is 7-8 pounds over his competition weight.
He surprisingly doesn't need to eat much to keep his physique
Samuel Nguyen no he’s a man and trying to maintain a males child’s weight that’s why. I think for any man 160 lbs is super hard to maintain hence why he doesn’t eat much
@@octaviakf its not a child's weight if you are not very tall, or if you are very lean
@Faizaan Naseem its for cutting weight
We legit joke around at wrestling saying to people “do not feed the wresters” because we are not allowed to eat much to maintain weight unless it’s heavyweight wrestling. I wrestled at 163lbs and in off season I would walk around 190 lbs “ice cubes, wrestling, sleep, repeat” 😂😂😂💀💀
At 160lbs he's probably just a pretty small guy.
the best wresler i ever seen
I gotta try this...
Smoothie sounds like fire 💯
Shoutout to all the youtube bro scientists in the comments lmao
you dont have to be a bro scientist to know that this is below 2000 or even 1500 calories
Shoutout to the retards at mens health for providing no context about WHY this diet is under 2000 calories...
D4RK he is cutting weight tho
@@DarkAK2 We didn't hear the AMOUNTS of these foods which is what determines if he gains, maintains, or loses weight. For example: If he uses a whole avocado, 4 tbsp Almond butter, Regular 8oz Almond Milk in that smoothie for breakfas, that's already a 750 calorie shake WITHOUT the Chia, Flax, which could add another 200.
Cool to see he's going very plant heavy. Good inspiration.
At about 2:07 what is he swinging around? Looks like the letter "U" but I don't know the name of it.
I am definitely not a nutrition expert. The food he selected is very nutritious but I think he would have to eat about three times the amount to sustain his training regimen.
"some crushed dbols with the turmeric..." Breakfast of champions!!!
"berries for antioxidants then add a handful of dbols for a lil' kick..." Arnie would be so proud
Dude he is a olympic athelete.
@@usmhaevmcgmedov5525 with gyno in one of his nipples
Everyone's body metabolizes food differently. If this is what he says he eats I believe him. Just like I need to go eat a whole bag of Cheetos and take a nap to maintain my lifestyle lol
Super easy to replicate
Amazing athlete. I hope he makes the transition to MMA
Magnus Commissio he won’t, he’s old already
Kaas Kiis Old is relative. Randy Couture started at 34. Hendo started in his 30s and they both fought well into their 40s at a high level. It all really depends on the athlete. DC started in his 30s. Anderson Silva didn’t get to the UFC till his mid-30’s. Athletes are getting bigger, stronger, faster, and smarter. That’s because of technology, supplementation, training methods, nutrition, and psychological training. At the end of the day it really comes down to will, desire, and heart. All those other things I mentioned are there if the athlete chooses to go forward.
Magnus Commissio it won’t work...he’s already on the sauce...if he were to get a UFC contract he’d have to stop the PED’s and that would also play a huge factor
Guys, this is not his year round diet as it is nowhere near enough. If i had to guess, this video is more like what he eats as he is descending to weight a few weeks out from competition. Then once he's within striking distance he'll sweat off the last 5-6 lb. for weigh ins.
Brian Domski That diet cannot he maintained for a “couple weeks”. His body would absolutely crash. For a couple days maybe sure to reach ketosis for a short period of time to drain water quickly. If he kept that diet for anything longer than 4-7 days his body would atrophy so bad it would be funny.
hows that diet going with lockdown>?
Spinach Avocado Chia Flax Almond Protein 3 eggs Pepper Onion Mushroom Berry salad Spinach Mushroom Fish Sweet potato
He is an Olympic gold medalist in wrestling damnit! Show some fucking respect.
I got an advertisement for salted Caramel Truffle Gelato.. They may try but they shall not overtake my will! Yet.
This dude uses milk in da smoothy? I just use water, neat. Looks exactly like what I make though. Good to know..
Imagine if he went to an elite mma gym. He would be an animal in the UFC
anyone know what brand hoodie he's wearing?
People in comment section: That’s too many carbs... Me: All his carbs for the day are my breakfast...🤨
some of yall must forget that some wrestlers just don't eat that much lol
Bitches_Be_Bonkers look up jordan burroughs pizza.
I want to try and make those meals myself. I want to cut weight and keep it off.
Great ambassador for America
Handsome man.
I would appriciated a 7 day eatplan from this guy..looks tasty that stuff what this wrestler rams into his body.
Your thumbnail tells a different story
You ain't the only one thinking 😂
😂😂😂 WTF!
Man, they changed it
Can someone tell me the measurements?
The Goat
Seems like light meals. How does he keep weight?
I wanna see his cheatmeals next 😁💪
Hello. I'm a sports nutritionist and I can say for sure that you are in a negative nitrogen balance with this diet. You'll be losing muscle, which I would think isn't ideal in your sport. I would reccomend around 1.6-2g of protein pr. Kg. Bodyweight for ideal performance. For you this would be around 160-180g of protein pr. Day. I'd estimate that The current diet you're eating, is giving you around half of that amount. Around 80-90g of protein pr. Day. Which is likely insufficient.
4 SCOOPS, COME ON
Was expecting a 5K food slam down. But realized this is healthy micronutrients meal for performance and weight
Go to the ufc, or any mma organization and your stock will jump to millions very quickly! Hope to see you on t.v. there! 🤓🙌
He said he doesn't like getting punch in the face. He could paid millions to coach tho
Am I the only one who was caught off guard by his voice??
That cutting diet tho fam.
They didn’t talk about the bag of flamingo hot Cheetos he eats every night when he’s not cutting
Isn't that food too little for him? He should definitely feel hungry in between
🤔 where is the olympic cycling guide??
What were those plant base protein?
A smoothie, an omelette, and a piece of fish w potato. Sounds like 1 meal to me.
There is something wrong w the Maths, both w Kcals & Proteins. A lot is missing
Ernesto Vaffan-Kulo 93 hes cutting weight my man
@@josephhendershot968 Well you might be right. But that's the problem of this video. They don't say it's in Weight cut. Champs like that take 2 to 3g of protein per kg. About 1g of protein per lbs... and 0.5 to 1g of fat per kg ...
Is this to maintain weight with the amount of exercise he does? Or does he just ajust his amount of exercise accordingly to this diet?
I think it's to cut weight very gradually since his walking weight is 170lbs and his wrestling weight is 163lbs. He doesn't need to cut a whole lot.
I saw his breakfast and was like *please don't be vegan* so happy when I saw omelette
That's a cutting diet.
did you ever wrestle hulk hogan or shawn michaels
Why would you use plant based protein if you want the protein for muscle repair
