Rishabh Pant's return to cricket has been marked by a meticulous approach to fitness and recovery, including a tailored nutrition plan managed by a private chef, Akshay Arora. Arora, the founder of Neat Meals, travels with Pant to ensure he adheres to a strict dietary regimen.
In collaboration with nutritionist Shweta Shah, Arora carefully monitors Pant's dietary needs, emphasizing anti-inflammatory foods and hydration to enhance recovery between games. Arora's culinary skills ensure that Pant's meals are both nutritious and enjoyable, preventing monotony and maintaining his interest in eating healthy.
Arora explains that energy, in terms of nutrition, refers to nutrients that Pant may not have received sufficient supply of. By understanding Pant's specific requirements, Arora adjusts the macronutrient composition of his meals to optimize his performance.
Arora recalls two particularly fulfilling moments: Pant's return to cricket in the IPL 2024 and his Test century against Bangladesh in Chennai. These milestones were not only significant for Pant but also for Arora, who witnessed the culmination of their collaborative efforts.
Arora believes that the trend of private chefs will gain popularity among Indian cricketers, as it contributes to longevity in their playing careers. Players are increasingly recognizing the importance of clean eating and proper nutrition for on-field performance.
