Andrew Tate claims to have never taken steroids but runs on his own “super drugs.”
Kickboxer turned controversial influencer Andrew Tate is currently under house arrest in Romania. Recently, he sat down with the PBD Podcast for a five-hour conversation that ranged from his life in prison to his health. During the interview, Tate claims that he runs on his own “super drugs” of nicotine and caffeine while only eating once a day.
Tate was released from prison and put under house arrest at the end of March. He spent months in a Romanian jail under suspicion of human trafficking and organized crime. The investigation remains ongoing but Tate won an appeal back in March to move his holding to house arrest.
Tate came into the public light a bit when he appeared on the British version of Big Brother. During his time on the show, he received criticism for making controversial comments regarding race and sexuality. Prior to this, Tate was a champion kickboxer, who’s career began in 2005.
Tate has continued to train hard and work on his physique but has done it using some unorthodox methods.
Andrew Tate’s Daily Meal Plan Consists of 15 Cups of Coffee, 3 Cigars
Andrew Tate faced health issues while in jail. Doctors wanted to take a look at a dark spot on his lungs and he opted to get a procedure done in Romania. They did a biopsy on the piece on his lungs and determined that it was not cancer.
During this procedure, doctors revealed to Tate that he did not have any damage in his lungs from smoking, which was a surprise.
“It was actually very refreshing to hear that I have zero smoke damage in my lungs. Zero? I’ll accept a little bit. I’ll take a little bit but I think it’s because I train every single day. I workout every single day. I train hard every single day. You burn it off, a couple cigars here and there. You know, it’s not cigarettes. I think cigars are better than cigarettes.”
When cigars were not available, Tate turned to cigarettes in prison. He revealed that he was still able to follow this plan in prison by getting the ample amount of coffee and nicotine.
Tate claims that he has never taken a steroid or a pill but runs on what he calls “super drugs.”
“I also believe nicotine is a super drug so I’m not gonna stop. I think nicotine and caffeine.”
“Nicotine and caffeine are what I run on. That’s all I run on. Coffee is for closers, bro. I have about 10-15 cups of coffee a day and 2-3 cigars a day. I only eat once a day.”
Along with his plethora of cigars and coffee, Andrew Tate will squeeze one meal in per day. This typically occurs at night and will consist of mostly meat.
“People look army physique when I put pictures up and they’re like ‘what’s your meal plan?’ And I’m like ‘bro, cigars and coffee.’ I eat once a day. I eat dinner and 80-90% of my calories are on meat. I’ll just have like three steaks for dinner.”
Andrew Tate’s Testosterone Levels Are Above Average
While all tests were being run on Andrew Tate, he also shared that his testosterone levels were checked and he came in above average.
“I’m not going to try to be an expert on male hormones because I’m not. I don’t understand them. I don’t know what measurement it’s in but it was between 9-27 is a normal range. I’ve never taken a steroid in my life. I don’t inject anything. I don’t take any pills, nothing. I was 32. I was above the normal scale and I’m 36 years old. It’s supposed to be going down.”
This type of lifestyle and meal plan is not for everyone but for Tate, it seems to be what is working.
“I’m not sure if it’s genetics but that’s just how I feel best. If I smoke and drink coffee all the time, I feel hungry, which motivates me and I feel energetic. It’s energetic hunger. That’s how I wanna feel. If I eat, I’m just tired.”
