Diet focus: “Vegan does not mean healthy—plant-based is what’s healthy. I try to stay away from all processed foods and avoid adding sugar, oil, or salt when I cook. I don’t count much, like calories or macros; instead, I understand my body and consciously monitor my intake rather than rely on measuring cups. After a workout—typically strength and conditioning in the morning and shadowboxing at night—I know if my body requires extra calories, protein, carbs, etc. Your body is an efficient machine and attains its necessary nutrition from whole foods.”
