Marc Fitt Diet

By now, most of us know that overall fitness as well as great physique cannot be achieved by training alone. You could be going to the state of the art gym, have great coaches and follow the scientifically most accurate training routine. However, all of it could very well go down the drain if the diet is not in order. If training stimulates the body to get stronger, diet provides the building blocks for doing the job.

Marc Fitt’s diet plan follows the same principles as his training. He is not overly rigid with the diet and likes to leave room for adjustments according to the immediate goals. Being a fitness model, the 32-year-old has to stay in good shape and potentially transform his physique often depending upon the nature of modelling assignment. Just like training, having a flexible diet plan enables him to stay ready to grab opportunities whenever they show up.

One thing that does not change much in Marc Fitt’s diet is that he tries to keep the carbohydrates intake in control and relies on a high-protein diet. He believes in consuming evenly spaced smaller meals throughout the day to keep the metabolism fired up and to avoid blood sugar spikes. Typically, he consumes seven to eight small meals in a day with a two to three hours gap between meals.

Preferred Foods

With that being said, it is important to acknowledge that Marc Fitt is not overly restrictive about his diet and likes to incorporate foods that are healthy and really help him progress in the right direction. Egg whites and chicken breast are the primary sources of protein in Marc Fitt’s diet. Nuts and healthy oils like olive oil nourish his body with healthy fats while healthy quantities of oats, fresh fruits and vegetables take care of vitamins, minerals, fibres and other essential nutrients.

Marc Fitt tries to get most of the nutrition through whole foods but he also takes assistance from dietary supplements to meet his nutritional requirement. He typically uses Whey Protein, Omega-3 Fatty Acids, Multivitamins, Glutamine, BCAA, Pre-workout formula, Creatine monohydrate and Dextrose. However, he does not replace the meals altogether and only uses the supplements for a little extra push to get sufficient additional nutrition.

Cheat Meals

Life gets too boring when you consume food for nutrition and nutrition alone. After all, we have come a long way from the origin of our species and food is no longer just a means of survival. We need it for emotional fulfilment, bonding and recreation. Marc Fitt is not different. He indulges in cheat meals every now and then to satiate the taste buds and feel good. But hold on, his cheat meals are not sugar-laden desserts that outweigh a hefty meal in terms of calorific value. As mentioned by Marc Fitt in one of the interviews:

“Three whole wheat crepes with lots of fruit on it. It is important for me to have my cheat meal in the morning, three hours before my workout. That way, I can make sure I burn this cheat meal during the day.”
