Indian fast bowler Mohammed Shami has revealed a surprising approach to fitness that helps him stay in peak form at 34. His routine includes eating just one meal a day and completely avoiding sweets. Shami, who became the fastest Indian to reach 200 ODI wickets, shared these insights during a conversation with Navjot Singh Sidhu on Star Sports on February 21. Let's check out his unique fitness and diet regimen.

Shami’s one-meal-a-day diet

Shami revealed that he skips breakfast and lunch, relying solely on dinner to fuel his body. "After 2015, I only have one meal a day. I only have dinner, no breakfast, no lunch. It is very difficult to do such a thing, but once you get used to it, then it becomes very easy," he said.

How did Shami deal with weight gain during rehab

After enduring a 14-month break due to an ankle injury sustained during the 2023 World Cup final, Shami struggled with weight gain during his rehabilitation and had to exert significant effort to regain his fitness. Reflecting on this period, he stated, "I have lost nine kgs (during rehabilitation). The most difficult thing is you have to challenge yourself. When you are in this condition. . . when I was at the NCA, it was a very difficult phase. "

He continued, "My weight was touching 90kgs. The best thing about me is that I do not crave delicacies. I stay away from sweets. I stay away from a lot of things, things that generally one shouldn’t eat. So, I stay away from them. " Despite adhering to a strict regimen, Shami acknowledged that he occasionally indulges himself. "And, as far as the biryani is concerned, sometimes it’s okay," he joked.
