Nadal’s goal in next few weeks: get to bottom half of 2021 US Open draw

Anyone know why has Nadal gained so much weight after F.O? One would think he would train and make some changes in his coaching/equipment etc, but it seems like the reverse and he's been chilling.
At this rate, it is more likely that he does not get to the 2nd week of the UsOpen than him winning it. F.O 2022 might be the more realistic target but obviously that will be harder than F.O 2021 with him aging.
Weight has never been relevant, because Nadal has talent.
Djokovic needs peak fitness (or whatever you call it), and even then he's only won THREE US Opens, despite being a hardcourt specialist.
