For a successful career in life, one needs many people’s guidance or expertise in a particular field. In sports, the coach-player relationship is of primary importance to be successful. Skills and talent are essential, but a coach is the one who polishes those skills in a way so that they are best utilized. Coaches can sometimes be rude and make you follow their hard instructions. Similarly, Usain Bolt’s coach Glen Mills encountered a unique incident. A good coach like Glen Mills can make a GOAT like Usain Bolt leave his bad habits.

Being the greatest sprinter of all time requires a lot of preparation, with a heavy workout and a rich diet. There was a time in Usain’s life when his coach was about to abandon him if he didn’t follow his rules.

When Usain Bolt’s coach was about to abandon him

Usain has been in the news for having chicken nuggets in his diet. His diet grabbed everyone’s attention in 2008 when he was seen munching on chicken nuggets for the first time.

During an interview with the Guardian, Bolt revealed how he included nuggets in his diet. He said he also had a bad habit of eating at the wrong time in his bed. According to Bolt, his coach Glen Mills tried to stop him by switching his night snack with cereals.

Before the 2016 Rio Olympics, Bolt was worried about himself for being in bad shape. As per the Jamaican sprinter, his coach Glen Mills warned him, “Listen to me, if you don’t get yourself in the shape which I feel you should be in, I’m not going to Rio. You can go, but I’m not.”
