He doesn't stress about nutrition and is still the FITTEST man on earth...this proves that nutrition doesn't have to be complicated...
Easy not to stress when you meals are pre made
It does for specific sports
that doesn't prove anything. It just proves that exercise thermomgensis and raising your TDEE and RMR can have a blunting effect on nutrients due to oxidative stress and other factors.
twitch moments his meals arent premade, and his fiancee cooks for him.. lol
SquaadPvPz he’s sponsored by a meal prep company
What sammy cooks is what he eats. #feedingthefrasers
I actually did not mind the just audio, it was good to listen to what he was saying instead of seeing a blurry webcam video.
This relieved a lot of anxiety on my part thanks haha - Nick
Why he is not Paleo, Keto or vegan. ‘Cause he is an athlete.
Dario Castaneda Well being vegan is usually an ethical choice. And can be a good ”diet” for athletes. Kind regards, a non vegan
@@MrOpticBlade I would keel over & die if I had to give up eggs butter milk or black pudding!
But the ketards claim that cutting carbs will make your stronger and give you more energy! ;)
No. It’s because everyone is different and we all require our own food requirements. What works for one does not work exactly the same for everyone. It takes wisdom to find out what works best for that person which will be different for each person. Keto with OMAD works miracles for me but might not work at all for anyone else.
It may be “ethical” to you but it’s certainly not meant for humans. A lot of vegans are going back to eating animal products because they realize this “diet” is unsustainable. You would die in nature trying to be vegan. If nobody believes me look up vegan tooth loss on TH-cam or google ex vegan forums or the videos on here about what we’ve learned from ex vegans
Very simple approach to nutrition from the fittest man on earth
Great video! I love his simple approach on it!!
I'm a like that too cuz I love to eat!
2:43-you know what foods are good for you and what's not.
Well put!!
Yessss! Been waiting for this one 🙌🏼
Yes!!!!
Hydration is definitely much higher on the list, for aesthetic and performance based individuals. I’m shocked to see you put it so low on this list.
Completely agree. I feel it should be tied for first ... 1a calories 1b hydration
Man, too bad he didn't have you in his corner for all those dominant wins, eh Taylor? Just think how much further he could've gone.
@@nickmotta8246 I was referring to the creator’s listing of importance on the sports nutritional hierarchy. Nice job on joining the conversation late though.
Same
He doesn’t stress about diet because even if he eats 3000 calories, he is still going to burn it all in his next training session. Athletes train differently and they eat for fuel and recovery. Diet is still important for the average person who trains 1-hour three times a week to lose fat, build muscles or recomp
Love this 'can't out train a bad diet' - Matt Fraser
Mat Fraser didn't coin that term... It's incredibly common.
The FDA would like us to be careful with CBD bc they haven't figured out a way to tax it all yet... much like anything new.
You are 100% correct sir.
very well presented...i like the flashing the academic studies where there is research to support...
I would disagree with hydration and put that in between micros and macros
Improvement Through Movement imo hydration will always be paramount to everything. You can live 3 days without water but at least a month without food
How is hydration the bottom of the priority list?? Meal timing should definitely be down there imo
Michael Carnahan perhaps when eating so much you get after from food? Yeah I donno
GREAT TIPS! THANKS FOR SHARING!
actually i seen another video where he does mention his macros and i remember it was some insane number ...i couldnt even believe it but he does work out several times a day so yeah
I follow you on Stridewise. I didn't know you managed this too. Awesome video.
He just playing y’all so we don’t know how a champ really eats.😂
Try to eat 6-7k calories in a day eating just “clean” foods. I eat 3k and I feel like throwing up from fullness, and I weigh 230lbs. Most elite athletes have to eat “junk” just to get in the calories.
lol what, I eat clean and only eat carbs with dinner, I can get down 3-4K easy and I weigh 160lbs. I do agree getting in 6-7K clean is really hard but with rice and fatty sauce + meat you can get in 2K in a meal easy.
That's what the Vertical Diet tries to solve, you should check out this video: th-cam.com/video/Thf_KesNfsc/w-d-xo.html - Nick
There is a lot of high density low volume foods like nut butters, oils, rice, 3 k can be slammed easy
Healthy Calories in/out according to demand, period! Let’s keep it simple.
exactly!
Wow, I didn’t think I would get a feedback! Lol 👍🏻
What does healthy really mean?
Mikel Roa the food that gives you the biggest bank for your health. Combinations of Good balance whole foods and natural spices (antioxidants friendly), water and proven supplements.
You lost me when you put hydration last on the list...
I think when you're eating that much a day you get a lot of water from your food. Although, I do agree it doesn't make sense to say hydration is the least important component of diet
Supplements, hydration, and timing are more or less equally weighted by Renaissance Periodization, sorry for not making that clear - Nick barbend.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/renaissance-periodization-priority-chart-750x547.png
BarBend even so I still feel like supplements and hydration should be more or less equal
@@allstrongfitness Yeah that's what I just said - Nick
BarBend apologize I meant SHOULDNT be more or less equal I wrote it wrong
What’s the dope plan though?
Hydration at the end? Eddie Hall agrees 🤣😂🤣😂
🤣🤣 yep
Sorry so question, Does he take his Xtend Bcaa with his preworkouts? Or does he do it separately such as after workouts
Good job💪👍
I may have missed it but did you say what brand he uses for Whey Protein?
Seeing how 99% of world class athletes now do Stan Efferding's Vertical Diet (and even become World's Strongest Man because of it), you can say that this is the best diet for 99% of athletes
Great video
Maybe he’s the fittest man on earth cuz he EATS! 💥
how did the guy not use his phone to video the interview??
hydration is #1 actually
Yea but that’s an easy fix drink more water. For most people finding a sustainable diet is the hardest part of health and fitness
Train big, eat big.
Duuuudddeeee I looveeee sleepy time tea
Is he the fittest man on Earth or is he just the best at CrossFit?
I'm quite sure the best at crossfit. "The fittest on earth" is just to inflate a title. Though I must admit, they're in great shape, I'm quite sure if they were to take up in other elite sport, they'd be challenged.
the terms are somewhat synonymous, mostly because of the variety of “skills” crossfit requires you to have. i would argue that the best crossfit athletes are the most well rounded athletes by far in any category (and i mean literally any) but of course they’re not going to be Usain Bolt or Michael Phelps, who specialize at one thing and one thing only. the other thing is based on what your definition of fitness is
I personally disagree with the importance part. I agree with the top 3 but then I would say hydration, meal timing then supplements
The makers of the pyramid say they're all about as important as each other, 10% on the pyramid. But personally I'd agree hydration is significantly more important than the other two - Nick
makes sense. all i need to do is quit my job, and work out all day every day, with zero other responsibilities. sounds simple enough.
Yes, create the life you want.
did everyone hear micronutrients and macronutrients the same
Didn’t cover hydration, but covered CBD?
Great video! Seems like an un-biased view, very informative. On the personal level, I'm a bit surprised by how many athletes are now using and promoting (more so that) CBD. I'm 420 friendly, so it's not that I'm against that stuff.
It has its proven benefits. I just wish the military would approve it...
Don't eat out and don't eat food that comes in a package. If all people followed that we d be gooood.
I eat out and have a six pack. You can eat out healthy but most people are morons and eat unhealthy which is more expensive in the long run when they are losing years out of their life and are going to pay more in medical bills then people who eat Whole Foods, grains, vegetable
Welcome to 2020, please overthink your opinion about bcaas. Newer studies show, that the benefits you're talking about is not given because of the lack of the other essential aminoacids. Therefore you would need to take eaas or a complete whey protein.
IHungerForKnowledge Stfu
yeah its hard not to be in shape when you burn 10k cals a day
firstname lastname Doesn’t burn anywhere near 10k. Even top strongmen who are 6”9 450lbs don’t burn that much
@@MrOpticBlade prove it
firstname lastname Basic nutritional knowledge mate. He’s too light to burn 10k calories. You have the burden of proof making the claim he burns 10k. Not me.
@@MrOpticBlade nope, you made the claim and have been unable to prove it yet
firstname lastname blog.myfitnesspal.com/how-many-calories-are-you-really-burning-in-the-gym/ His maintenance is most likely at let’s say 4000kcal. With training let’s say he trains super intense for 6hours a day (he doesn’t) and burns 500kcal per hour thats. 3000 kcal. So optimally he is burning 7000kcal. That’s nowhere near 10k and I’m being super generous here.
His 5’6
Fittest man on Earth is the Olympic decathlon gold medalist.
Home-cooked eat how much and whenever you want, but Processed foods or pre-cooked packaged foods avoid them.
I don't know if the right takeaway is you can eat as much as you want so long as it's home cooked, but certainly home cooked food tends to be more filling and lower in calories than most restaurant dishes! - Nick
Negan The Crusher sure, I’ll make sure to make my own chocolate chip cookies and pizza. As long as I make it from scratch, it must be healthy right?
@@siciliancannoliandanespres6021 Just don't eat shit, dude, it's not that hard.
Doesnt matter who you are, eating shit food in vast quantities will require some payback down the line, maybe 20 -30 years . Worn out joints,brain issues etc. It's easy to eat 6k cals eating moderate clean carbs and high amounts of fatty meat.
I don't know why you said anything about a video disappearing ... you just took different talks from podcasts, documentaries and any interviews.
He doesn’t track macros because he’s too busy CRUSHING SOULS.
Number one rule, very strict vitamin s regimen. The rest doesn't matter after that
You really have hydration at the least important??? wow
Just imagine how much more successful Mat would have been with you in his corner David. What a loss.
@@nickmotta8246 Could have got a 6th title 🤷🏻♂️
His wife is a professional chef, of course he doesn’t need to track shit. Wrong person to ask about nutrition...
No creatine?
Meat, vegetable, rice... If you want to put a label on it, it kind of sounds like a Vertical Diet approach.
Nah, he eats plenty of wheat and sugar and non-Vertical foods, you can see it all on the feeding the frasers Instagram page - Nick
@@Barbend Ah ok. Vertical Diet is a match made in heaven for Crossfit though. But as long as he keeps winning, stick with whatever works :P
a well balanced diet....all in moderation.....boom!
Why does it sound like he says alamine every time
I just need rice in anything cause I'm asian!!! Dont care about those diet formulas.
Don't need bccas u get everything u need from a balanced diet
Cool
Food is fuel, and calories are calories. It'll burn if you're active and keep active.
5:23
a lot of shiet is taken what about take only food ?
Yeah why would he want to eat out when he has 'Sammy'?
This guy is the first person I’ve seen in fitness videos that’s wearing Rhone gear. @rhone
I literally own thirty pieces of Rhone clothing and that made me very happy, haha - Nick
BarBend, likewise mate. It’s awesome stuff!
smoke CBD everyday
No creatin??????
He didn't mention it but you sometimes see it on his Instagram, so maybe he forgot the creatine? Unclear. - Nick
Just out of curiosity , what makes him the fittest man on earth? Michael Phelps also won the gold medal consistently for 23 times.
Yea, and his year round training? It’s not CrossFit lol
Can’t tell you that though cause it would make the brand look bad
Explain, caught my attention.
eyobin2 He doesn’t train like a CrossFitter year round. Neither did Frohning. You can’t get to that level of fitness through classic CF training with 2 strength work days a week mixed with a 15-30 min long metcon. Most of their training revolves around getting as strong as possible and skill work. Oxygenative conditioning can be increased within a few weeks, so they simply train CF metcons a few weeks before a competition. When you’re strong you move sub maximal weights easier already, then just add some conditioning work to it and bam! You’re set
The big difference between them and us is their CP battery capacity. It can be trained to a certain extent, but much like neuromuscular efficiency it’s mostly a genetics thing.
Creatine! Tried tested and proven. Get rid of the BCAAs and add some creatine
He “forgot“ to mention Performance Enhancing Drugs
he tracks every gram of juice though. cant blame him they all are. fun fact, people who are later bounced for juicing lose constantly in the games. 7 day, all day grueling competitions. the guys and gals on test and mast would own day 4,5,6,7 against people not juicing. yet they dont. because they are all juicing, and the people on the top pay coaches that specialize in getting athletes to pass drug tests. just look at the women. they look like top physique pro body builders (that we know juice) all year long, doing hours of cardio a day AND GAIN MUSCLE MASS.
Not sure if you really know he’s juicing, but then again, nobody cares.
They do drug tests and he hasn’t failed any.
@@rjrparker6005 yeah the olympics and MLB are clean too right ;)
@@hotramen5952 you are probably arguing with an 8 year old who still believes in santa. LMFAO
WTF kipping muscle ups?
Fittest man on earth 🤔
Yep, dude is a bad mama jamma.
Absolute Monster Google him
Rice is the best
Esteroides....
1 to 2 meals a day?? That sounds miserable even if he's not training
Adam Waddington That is IF diet 😉
I love to fast, fasting is the best supplement for me. For me eating often is miserable. Froning is fasting as well. Bone broth is the best supplement. Sammy should do it.
Luciana Marchi what are you talking about?
Why should we give a shit what he eats? Just eat clean.
I don't believe that he does not track nutritional consumption. I do believe as successful as he is that he is not willing to share his training secrets.
White Basmati rice IS paleo
is basmati better than jasmine rice?
@@incorectulpolitic It is slitghly better because its glycemic index is 58 iso 60 for jasmine. I guess jasmine is ok too.
Most important is white rice is better than the others because they contain phytic acid in their "enveloppe", according to J. Venesson's book "Paleo Nutrition"
@@incorectulpolitic Also don't forget to rinse your rice before cooking, to remove starch
@@torvaldrunarson4219 semi brown rice is best
Cbd BS not natural at all, not cool at all
This guy narrating is annoying.
Wow, so much wasted time and energy.. macros micros... just eat what comes from a mother or the earth and minimal supplements if needed and go live ur life
This is all a very general conversation, lacking a lot of specifics. Didn’t really find this interesting or helpful.
This is as specific as he gets - like I said, he doesn't track macros or micros and he eats just about everything. Still, I think there's a lot of actionable stuff! - Nick
My hobby during covid is to go thru every crossfit video and dislike button
I do not like this narrator. He's annoying: excessive nodding of the head, the way he speaks, and his accent. Painful.
th-cam.com/video/838ce72Nt5k/w-d-xo.html&t=126 - Nick
Yah but can you also go into his steroid cycle too please?
"the fittest man on earth" 🤣... Yeah okay🤦🏽♂️
who are you?
odd how hydration is number 6
He has reiterated that he is not paleo... yet you still ensue he is Paleo?!?! Is this video sponsored or something?! Wtf
He should reduce oxalate/phylate rich foods to prevent inflammation as he approaches 35.
“Extenze BCAA”
So I'm not the only one! 😂
Just love how they act like they are not roided up
@Austin Castille how old are you? 7? Probably you still believe in santa.
He is not old yet so you can get away with b.s.
Idk man, 30 is pretty ancient
Good point. Type or quality of food didn't affect me until I got older.
I also recall Matt's video from a year or two ago. He said he snacked throughout the day then had a big dinner.
