Right now, one of the world’s most feared forwards is Mohammed Salah. The 31-year-old Egyptian sensation has 204 goals and 88 assists for Liverpool after 332 games.
Mo Salah, a player for Liverpool, has a rigorous diet. Salah is seen as a crucial component of Jurgen Klopp’s team as they aim for a Champions League berth. It is for this reason that the Reds are turning down approaches from Saudi Arabia, even if Al-Ittihad is willing to pay him more than any other player in the globe.
The former Chelsea forward’s strict diet and rigorous exercise routine—which included early workouts during Ramadan—are responsible for his extraordinary performance.
Because of that sacrifice, Salah has developed into one of football’s most sculpted players, emulating Cristiano Ronaldo.
This is the approach he took.
Salah treats himself to a cheat day every now and then including pizza, but what he puts into his body on a regular basis is crucial to his success.
Regarding his diet, the Egyptian told CNN that “nutrition is so important, it’s part of the game.”
It has accelerated my body’s adaption, helped me heal, and enhanced the quality of my sleep.
“My nutritionist says that since I don’t have any body fat, I can eat everything I want. Since I also don’t drink, it’s alright.
It’s also true that a devout Muslim usually pays close attention to what he consumes.
For breakfast, he’s having some puffy flatbread called parathas and a glass of milk.
He will then go for a bowl of fruit if he is still hungry.
Salah typically enjoys a larger, higher-calorie lunch.
His favorite foods include bread, chicken, vegetables, lentils, and yogurt for dessert.
His favorite food is kushari, an Egyptian specialty comprised of rice, macaroni, and lentils topped with marinated onions, tomatoes, and chickpeas.
“I call my friend to buy kushari from the airport so we can eat in the car when I go back to Egypt,” he revealed.
“As soon as I get in the car and pull my hoodie over my head, I start eating it.”
Dinner is usually a light meal, best served with soup, salad, and vegetables. He’ll wash that down with a glass of fresh fruit juice that hasn’t been sweetened.
Salah’s enthusiasm for working out shows how dedicated he is to his profession.
When he’s not training with the Reds, he works out with bodyweight exercises, weights, yoga, swimming, and plyometrics.

Salah’s guilty pleasure is pizza.
Salah told ON Ent, “Normally, I get up early to go to training, which starts either in the morning or in the afternoon.”
“I then spend nearly two hours recovering. Counselling for any wounds or targeted massage to lessen your body’s pain.
“After that, I visit the club’s gym, which is open to players only. I stretch and recover once more after exercise.
“At last, I visit the club’s pool or hang out at home with Makka, his daughter. I wrap up all of these things at 7:30 or 8:00 p.m.
Salah made sure he worked out every minute of Ramadan to tone his abs.
After fasting during the day, he got up at three in the morning to work out with weights at home.
Salah had a trim build while he was a Chelsea player.
Even when he regained his form while on loan at Fiorentina prior to being transferred to Roma, he was definitely less defined.
But since he’s been exercising regularly and following a diet, he’s noticed a huge difference in his body.
The Salah of today is a man with massive biceps and toned abs that show up beneath his Liverpool jersey.
He routinely shows off his body to his adoring Instagram followers without hesitation.
Even his teammates can’t help but take pictures of his incredible body.
Scotland’s Andy Robertson shared a picture of Salah in a pool without a cover in 2021.
He made a funny remark, saying that his friend in the picture had a “bit of body fat to lose.”
If so, SunSport had better get on an exercise bike with vigour.
Home workouts are very important to Salah
