Overview

  • Men’s Health digital cover highlights Dončić’s slimmer, more muscular physique after a summer overhaul.
  • Working with trainer Anže Maček, physiotherapist Javier Barrio and nutritionist Lucía Almendros, Dončić followed two-a-day workouts, mobility drills and hurdles in Croatia.
  • He adopted a 16-hour intermittent fasting plan and a gluten-free, low-sugar, high-protein diet to optimize recovery and performance.
  • Dončić joked that the Mavericks have “already seen” his cover, mocking their winter concerns over his fitness.
  • He plans to maintain his regimen into Lakers training camp and Slovenia’s EuroBasket campaign before signing a four-year extension on August 2.
