WWE’s Cathy Kelley interviewed RAW Superstar Braun Strowman ahead of his SummerSlam match against Kevin Owens.
Strowman talked about getting in better overall physical condition and simultaneously mocked his SummerSlam opponent’s physique,
“I’ve cleaned my diet up a little bit. I started doing meal prep stuff again and trying to eat a little bit cleaner because I was starting to put on a little bit of a belly. I’ll leave the bellies to Kevin Owens.”
Strowman elaborated on his change of diet,
“Leading up into this, I really dialed down on the diet and the gym workouts, trying to clean my diet up, get my cardio back where it needs to be because I hadn’t had any big, long matches or anything, so I’ve been working on that. I’ve switched back to eating meal prep stuff. I’ve been eating around 6-7 meals a day and consist of around 10 ounces of cooked meat either beef, chicken, or fish a cup of rice, and some vegetables. I’m putting away 4.5 pounds of cooked meat a day right now so I’m kind of a carnivore…It’s not cheap. Everybody always says they want to be gigantic and a monster and this and that. It’s a commitment maintaining this.”
Strowman details an incredible commitment; but, may still find it a struggle to stay on the straight and narrow. He also revealed that he was tempted by a Nathan’s hot dog sign and that his favorite dish includes anything Italian, like pizza.
