Mardy Fish - Successful because of Diet

Workout: Rest Day

Mardy Fish has just become the #1 American tennis player. At 29 years old he has had an 'Agassi-like' renaissance late in his career. One of the primary reasons for this has been his food discipline. If you research this a little more you'll find that a little more than a year ago Mardy weighed around 190-195lbs. He consulted with a dietitian and dialed everything in. Within a few months he was down to almost 170lbs and had one of the best years of his career during 2010.

Well, it looks like he hasn't slowed down, reaching the semi-finals in Miami. Take a cue from Mardy and tighten up your own diet, and you may be surprised how much of a difference it makes.

Andy Roddick's Body Breaking Down?

Warmup:  5 min Jump Rope

Strength:  Front Squat 7x1

WOD:         4 Rounds for Time of:

                      10 Ring Dip
                      25 Air Squat

Tabata:  Pullup


I went and checked Andy Roddick's official website today to see if there was a specific reason he lost  his opening match in Miami this past week. No details were given, only that he requested a trainer several times during the second set. Roddick isn't as young as he used to be and his training regimen may be letting him down. It would take a little time to research, but in the past Andy has said that he stays away from "strength training" because of the weight gain potential. Unfortunately, if he continues to neglect strength training he may face an increasing uphill battle attempting to stay healthy.
