Lindsey Vonn shared her new diet
Lindsey Vonn has had one of the strongest bodies in her sport. This was a prime reason she could always make such quick comebacks from severe injuries. But she had a curious diet back then. For breakfast, Vonn would have oatmeal or muesli and eggs. Once she would be up on the mountain, Vonn would often eat a protein bar and drink a can of Red Bull to give her a little extra energy. After each race, she would replenish by having a banana and protein shake.
But all that has changed now as the 37-year-old is training to be leaner and fitter. She now drinks a lot more water, eats clean food, and times her meals. Vonn said, “I try not to eat too much in the morning before I work out. I’m not working out crazy hard, but I notice I feel better; not as weighed down.”
