Tiger80 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 In USA' date=' but even In India when I was there I had no problem in finding beef, If you want it you can get it easily[/quote'] Cow meat is illegal in most of Indian states.imported beef is available but it is very costly ,also it depend on Which state you are talking about ,North Indian states are mostly vegetarians
msplash9 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 People from Kerala takes plenty of beef .Well that may be the reason for a small state like Kerala is producing so many good athelets and footballers B/w i think Sreesanth is a veggie

Beef and Kerala Parotta is our state dish and 90% of the keralites (including non-brahmin Hindus too!) eat beef. AFAIK, Beef is widely available in Goa, Bengal and North-East.
Dravid_TheWall Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Beef theory may not be true but it is fact that majority of Indian children lack protein in their growth age Which is very important if you want to become Athlete They have plenty of resources available once they are cricketers...whether it is 24 hour access to a gym, personal trainer, guidance on nutrition, biomechanics, videos, it's all there. Just have to utilise it. India has not produced a genuine quick in modern time. Srinath in early years was quickish. I think Varun and Yadav are much quicker than past bowlers.

Its got nothing to do with Beef as such..but good nutrition and following a proper fitness regimen.Chicken and Fish can provide the same protein...
Blue Panther Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 ^^ eating beef & oyesters makes u popular and workout regularly. How did u failed to read it? or just pretending like u haven't read it.?:winky:
Blue Panther Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Oysters are known to act as Aphrodisiacs...probably explains why you are this way :giggle: Beef and oyesters are rich in testosterone. There is a reason why i eat thest things deliberately. U can find food which are rich in protein, but u will have to eat meat to get the testosterone and protein in natural way. Leave few body builders here in this forum, they might have take steroids to increase the testosterone, but if u wanna be a sportsperson u should be ready to compromise and eat meat,esp beef and oyesters because of the high amount of testosterone.
Blue Panther Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Don't eat too much beef though' date=' I have some relatives who eat beef every day and they have high cholesterol high blood pressure and not to mention they are very fat :giggle:[/quote'] u forgot to mention they dont workout.:--D:--D

Yoda Bro, my post was in reply to Tiger80. I am hardcore beef-eater like most of the Malayalis but even I don't think it has any magical properties as our padosis claim.:--D Fish is the best non-vegetarian dish available in the world and a balanced diet and scientific fitness regime is all we need. A good article by Australian Institute of Sports about how you can be a successful vegetarian athlete: http://www.ausport.gov.au/ais/nutrition/factsheets/special_diets2/vegetarian_eating

Most testosterone rich foods contain zinc which is also present in high protein foods like chicken & nuts etc.So one does not need to necessarily eat Oysters & Beef for this. Besides just eating high T foods does not necessarily increase your T levels.That also depends on your body makeup and daily work load. A good diet (high in protein as well as complex carbs) combined with cardio and gym is ideal for atheletes.Depending on their sport, they need to do functional workouts as well.
TheYuvi02 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 u forgot to mention they dont workout.:--D:--D their "workout" consists of walking from dining table to bed, reading newspaper and watching tv 24/7 :haha:

I agree, but most of the indian cricketers or the emerging fast bowlers are not aware of zinc rich foods which can stimulate the natural testosterone production. Nuts and few veg foods are rich in zinc but mostly indian foods dont include these zinch rich veg foods. But eating beef or fish or atleast chicken meat everyday from childhood will give the necessary protein and T for the kids when they grow esp. when u dont know which kid is going to be a fast bowler or athlete when they grow up. But dont worry, there is a solution for the athletes who are veggies and if they are looking for increasing Testostore naturally there is a herbal product which is available in market. The herbal is called "tribulus terristris" which was used by the bulgarian weight lifting team and they stunned the world when they won the olympic medals using it in the early 1970s(google it if u dont believe me) The herbal is availble in india's herbal medical shops too. I have recommended this to few of my juniors who are veggies. I have done lot research on this bro. Good luck.:two_thumbs_up:
Tiger80 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 They have plenty of resources available once they are cricketers...whether it is 24 hour access to a gym, personal trainer, guidance on nutrition, biomechanics, videos, it's all there. Just have to utilise it. India has not produced a genuine quick in modern time. Srinath in early years was quickish. I think Varun and Yadav are much quicker than past bowlers. They have plenty of resources when they are cricketers but what about when they are becoming cricketers ? I read in one article that Mfuneko Ngam started developing stress fractures and doctors said that Childhood Nutritional deficancies could be one of the reason for this. I think to be a great fast bowler you need 1) Genetics 2) Physique 3)Talent 4)Hard work and then then role of diet comes
singhprakash72 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Well I feel Diet is just one piece of puzzle that leads to a Genuine Pace bowler. Good physique to begin with exercise ,bench workout,toning,training etc :(( and last but not least professional guidance once he emerges in international cricket scene...otherwise we will continue to see Balajis,Sharmas, Sreesanths, R P Singhs ...list is endless
div Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 I think Jhulan Goswami is the fastest bowler in women's cricket
akshayxyz Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Carb-loading FTW! B-> Test cricket fast bowling (plus fielding) is endurance thing. I do not think effects of carb loading can last that long... for ODI and T20 it can work. Btw - is Creatine legal in sports? If so, then it might work better/longer than carb-loading. R-ALA also supposed to help push harder and is an excellent anti-oxidant too. Also, too much muscle is also not sustainable for test fast bowling.
TheYuvi02 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 i think we first need a real decent fast bowler.. obviously not at the level of marshall or even lee but atleast the level of fleming and who can bowl 90 mph regularly.. we have yet to produce one iconic fast bowler
jonas10 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Diet is a huge problem and I dont know why people get so offended at this. A vegetarian lifestyle is better if you want a healthier longer life. However if you want to be strong and have the energy to fast bowl you need to eat a proper diet. Its bad enough if a "fast" bowler in India wants to reject red meat like beef but so many are pure vegetarians. Lets not get offended, England, Australia, Pakistan, West Indies, South Africa all have faster bowlers than India.....it obviously has something to do somewhat with the diet. Why else would they all have faster bowlers than India? There is no use hiding our heads in the sand. And for those of you saying beef is easy to find...where exactly is this? I've travelled all over North India and never seen it.

Why else would they all have faster bowlers than India? Actually Lanka and Bangladesh also never produced great fast bowlers and they too eat meat ,the only mystery is Pakistan as North Indian share same genetics with them ,the only difference is their diet so I too believe that diet has something to do with it There is no use hiding our heads in the sand. And for those of you saying beef is easy to find...where exactly is this? I've travelled all over North India and never seen it. I don't think cow beef is available in North India easily But buffalo meat is available in muslim area's ,apart from that some hi fi stores sell imported canned beef at very high rate
