• Playing games can help: Most people are unaware of the fact that apart from cricket, Dhoni is quite good at playing badminton and football. So much so that he is happy to switch a hard workout session in a gym to play badminton and football. Dhoni is of the opinion that playing badminton helps him to improve his footwork and eyesight. Who would say that his footwork is not good after knowing how good hitter he is or how competent wicket-keeper he is?

After you have brushed up your knowledge on the workout habits of MS Dhoni, now it’s time to have a look at particular eating habits that help him to stay fit and active.

• Protein Drinks: Dhoni likes to consume a lot of protein drinks. He is often seen drinking them during practice sessions and match intervals. If you want to keep yourself fit, then developing a taste for protein shakes is a good step. You can even create your own protein shake by taking the recipe from various books or internet. Just give it a shot and see the difference it makes.

• Fresh Juice: When Dhoni is unable to get protein shakes or simply wants a change, he prefers to drink fresh juice. You can also try adding juices to your daily menu. Don’t just go in for packaged juice. Rather buy a juicer and create a glass of juice yourself. The best part about fruit juices is that there are so many options available in the market that you’ll never get bored of trying them all. Just stick to apple juice for a few days then switch to orange juice and then switch to guava. Well, in my personal experience all the choices are really good.
