Marcos Llorente and his Atlético de Madrid are experiencing the most important two weeks of the season with the Champions League quarterfinals that they will play against Borussia Dortmund. It is a unique opportunity to return to the semifinals of a competition that still resists the colchonero team.
One of the aspects for which he has stood out is his powerful physique. He has always shown his passion for sports and healthy living, which has led him to have a very defined body. At the microphones of ‘El Larguero’, the player gave the keys to the peculiar diet that he follows to stay in shape.
«It is simply eating what was eaten at that time. You would of course have to eliminate all ultra-processed foods, not even look at them, and also all cereals. Everything that is pasta, bread, wheat, rice, that’s out and also dairy out. Only high quality cheeses. I take everything. Meat, like the steak that I love. Fish, eggs, vegetables. And carbohydrates like potatoes, sweet potatoes and cassava,” he explained.
Llorente, who has businesses such as the Rhudo restaurant in Madrid with Griezmann or the actors Miguel Ángel Silvestre and Álex González, assures that he will continue to take care of himself when he stops playing football: “It’s a lifestyle. With that I will live and die. I do it for health, not for football. When I retire I will continue to take care of myself as much as I do now or even more.
His wife, Paddy Noarbe, is also a lover of fitness and healthy living. In fact, she has a website where she offers advice and a personalized training and nutrition plan.
