The dude is serious about maximizing his potential. He wants the records.

Unnaturally disciplined for the 2000s gen, It’s why he’s the most successful among them.

Yep and he's only 21.

 

[Mainad]

Has he been to Bosnia yet?

 

[RS]

It's not too surprising tbf

 

[NoleFam]

Has he been to Bosnia as well?

He's saving that for when his form is in crisis, lol.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Gluten now confirmed to be the reason Fed and Nadal didn’t win the slam count.

 

[Legend of Borg]

Let him cook.

Carlokovic?

The new Earth's Mightiest Warrior in the making.

Sinner is the mightiest according to rankings.

 

[pirhaksar]

lol why!? Is there an actual medical reason?

 

[Hitman]

lol why!? Is there an actual medical reason?

Yes, the medical reason is 24 slams.

 

[NoleFam]

Yes, the medical reason is 24 slams.

Lmao. He said he wants to be the best player in history so he's like, let me have what he's having.

 

[pedro94]

the GGFBOAT, greatest gluten free bloke of all time

Edit: that actually sounds like a mean as f**k nickname for a vegan hipster with a man bun

 

[junior74]

Egg sleep?

SINNER should be taking notes

The new Earth's Mightiest Warrior in the making.

I agree. Even the water which has been the topic of jokes...just go and read about Dr Masaru Emoto and his work.

 

[Mainad]

Sinner is the mightiest according to rankings.

Sinner is an unpatriotic weakling who prefers swimming with his girlfriend rather than playing for his country.

 

[FeroBango]

Left the court in tears and with a losing h2h against a geriatric even with his maximized potential. GOAT caliber right there.

Still better than having a losing H2h to a similarly junior player at the peak of your powers, including getting owned in slams, ultimately leading to bawling at the podium because the 14th slam remained elusive, no?

At least Nadal is respectable. Imagine a losing H2H to Babymurray.

 

[Hitman]

Lmao. He said he wants to be the best player in history so he's like, let me have what he's having.

Looks the real trailblazer is Djokovic....changed the game forever.

Sounds interesting. LOL

The 21st century Lendl?

The 21st century Lendl?

Yes, that would be the right way to describe it.

I like sandwiches and spaghetti and beer MOAR than slams

Whole wheat is part of a healthy diet. A good source of fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants
Only 1% of the population is sensitive to gluten.
Unless you have gluten sensitivity there is little scientific evidence that a gluten-free diet offers any benefit.

 

[nolefam_2024]

^ This is the big wheat PR

 

[Better_Call_Raul]

Is eating chapati daily good for health?

- To add some health benefits, you can chop up cooked vegetables like beans, carrot, spinach and mix them with the dough.- The only way roti can become less fattening don't use ghee or oil.- Use whole wheat flour instead of refined wheat.- Adding ragi, soya bean flour, chickpea flour, pearl...

Djokovic 2.0?

 

[travlerajm]

Everyone has gluten sensitivity. The “only 1% of population is gluten sensitive” is a crock of bs.

 

[RS]

 

[Rafa4LifeEver]

Eww, bad.

 

[RS]

Eww, bad.

Even worse decades ago it has been sweetened down since

 

[NoleFam]

I gave that up a looong time ago. Haven't given up the gluten though, lol.

 

[nolefam_2024]

Everyone has gluten sensitivity. The “only 1% of population is gluten sensitive” is a crock of bs.

True. Cutting gluten just for 1 week gave me a lot of energy but its almost impossible to cut it so we eat it.

 

[timmyy]

Djokovic fans act like he invented gluten-free

 

[Better_Call_Raul]

Dr Igor diagnosed Djoker to be gluten sensitive.

In 2011, Novak Djokovic had what sportswriters called the greatest single season ever by a professional tennis player: He won ten titles, three Grand Slams, and forty-three consecutive matches. Remarkably, less than two years earlier, this champion could barely complete a tournament. How did a player once plagued by aches, breathing difficulties, and injuries on the court suddenly become the #1 ranked tennis player in the world? The answer is astonishing: He changed what he ate.

In Serve to Win, Djokovic recounts how he survived the bombing of Belgrade, Serbia, rising from a war-torn childhood to the top tier of his sport.

While Djokovic loved and craved bread and pasta, and especially the pizza at his family's restaurant, his body simply couldn't process wheat. Eliminating gluten--the protein found in wheat--made him feel instantly better, lighter, clearer, and quicker. As he continued to research and refine his diet, his health issues disappeared, extra pounds dropped away, and his improved physical health and mental focus allowed him to achieve his two childhood dreams: to win Wimbledon, and to become the #1 ranked tennis player in the world.

 

[soldat]

Alcaraz most resembles Djokovic in terms of tennis play style. Now his diet is like Djokovic’s too.

Quite natural for a player who aspires to be the GOAT to follow the footsteps of the GOAT.

 

[kangaroo1973]

Now where have i heard this one before

 

[legcramp]

SINNER should be taking notes

Sinner is too busy not playing tennis but playing with his lady.

Is Gluten Sensitivity Real? A Critical Look

Gluten sensitivity involves adverse reactions to gluten, a protein found in wheat and several other grains. A gluten-free diet can improve symptoms.

www.healthline.com

1. Celiac Disease:
   • Affects approximately 1% of the population
2. Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS):
   • Estimates vary widely,
   • Some sources suggest it could affect up to 6% of the population
3. Total Gluten Sensitivity:
   • Combining celiac disease and NCGS, the total percentage of people affected could be up to 7% of the population

I never drink that s**t tbh.
No other carbonated fructose sweet syrups either. A fresh lemonade with zero sugar is my personal favourite.

 

[FeroBango]

I like how Alcaraz is equally adopted by the Big 3 fans.

"No he's like our guy, no he's like this guy".

does it matter. He is just ridiculously good, but big 3 at their best were even better.
Big 3 are in the league of their own

Who was this geriatric?

 

[Better_Call_Raul]

What is the connection? Coke is gluten-free.

Gluten-Free Status: According to the Coca-Cola Company, their beverages meet the Codex standard for gluten-free, which allows for a maximum of 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten.
They state that none of their products contain gluten ingredients, which makes them safe for individuals with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity

 

[Daniel Andrade]

Is gluten really that bad for performance?

 

[Mainad]

Who was this geriatric?

Benjamin Button?
