Why does Vaibhav Suryavanshi not have breakfast, where does he get strength from without eating, you will be shocked considering it as ‘science’

New Delhi. After his debut in England, the name of Indian young sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi is making waves in the cricket circles these days. Along with the game of this player, who hit big sixes on the field at the age of just 15, his fitness routine has also become a topic of discussion on social media. Recently a post went viral, in which it was claimed that Vaibhav does not eat anything before the match. For a common man, going on the field without eating anything can cause weakness, but for an elite athlete it can be a well-thought-out scientific strategy.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi himself has revealed that he does not eat anything before the match. Now some people will consider it a trick while some people may also say that this cannot happen. There is a scientific reason behind Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s batting on an empty stomach and if you go deeper into this matter, you will also understand why Vaibhav does this.

The science behind playing on an empty stomach

When a player comes on the field on an empty stomach or without breakfast, the process of energy production in his body completely changes. The human body depends mainly on glycogen stored in muscles and liver for energy. Players like Vaibhav Suryavanshi completely fill their glycogen stores through ‘carbohydrate loading’ the night before the match. Therefore, even if they do not have breakfast in the morning, their muscles retain plenty of energy. Due to years of rigorous and systematic training, athletes’ bodies become adept at using stubborn body fat as fuel for energy when on an empty stomach. Due to this, they get continuous strength for a long time even without eating.

How do muscles get power without eating?

The body requires a lot of blood and energy to digest food. Eating just before a match concentrates blood flow towards the stomach. By skipping breakfast, the entire blood flow and oxygen is directed directly towards the muscles and brain, which increases alertness and strength. Now the question is how do muscles get power without eating? The secret of Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s muscle power and explosive batting is the excellent ‘metabolic flexibility’ level of his body. Due to years of rigorous training, their muscles have adapted to produce maximum force even in low glucose. When they are at the crease, their nervous system releases glucose stored in the body very rapidly, giving their muscles instant and uninterrupted explosive power.

Should you copy it too?

Seeing the habits of any athlete on social media and repeating them without thinking can prove costly. For common people or budding players, this routine can cause harm. If your body is not ready for this routine, blood sugar can suddenly drop during the game. In the absence of proper training and diet base, the body starts breaking down muscles instead of fat for energy. Due to the foundation not being prepared, you will not be able to concentrate and will get tired quickly. This strategy of Vaibhav Suryavanshi is the result of his nutritionist and years of special conditioning. It is very important to strengthen the foundation of your body before imitating an elite athlete.
