- What do ballerinas eat? What is the diet of ballerinas? How to eat properly when you are a ballerina? In this video, I would like to destroy a few myths about how ballerinas eat, and that we have our own special diet. Yes, a ballerina must observe a diet, but it is far from as strict as they say. What is the ballerinas' meal plan? The ballerina eats a little, but often. That is, instead of three meals, a ballerina eats 5 times a day, watch this video from beginning to end to know everything about the nutrition of ballerinas.

Hi everyone! I'm going to pop up here to clarify some things: currently I'm recovering from an injury and I'm not exercising at all so this is my meal plan for the time being when I'm not dancing.
I hope that I'm going to be back on stage soon and I will film a part two of this video where I'll show what my food looks like when I'm fully working.
And also: by no means do I recommend my style of eating to anyone. I’m not a doctor, nor a nutritionist, nor a cook. Do I do something wrong? Maybe. But I just tell you about what I eat 😊
Always thankful for your support and I hope you all have a great day!
That's great to hear. I was really worried about your eating habits, because this is definitely not enough for a stage day. Also, I wish you great recovery. Stay healthy, you do beautiful! 🥰
wisely stated 🙂
It's very important teach the eating correct in the dance. Because the anorexia and bulimia is the terrible situation! Thanks for all! And your lesson is very important for us. My friend!!! Emotions....
Sorry to hear about your injury! I hope your recovery goes well and that you come back stronger and better than ever!
The thing is, your body still needs a decent amount of food even when you’re at rest. I’m not saying over eat, but you may be slowing down your recovery by eating like this. Your body needs fuel to heal itself.
Her idea and my idea of a thick slice of cheese are totally different 😂.
Thank you Maria for this very interesting video 🙏🏼 Maybe it would be nice to see a video of how your diet was at Vaganova compared to how it is now? 😊
I am a dietitian that work me with dancers. Dancers burn about 300 calories per hour of dancing, as a result most dancers tend to under eat resulting in slower metabolism. Most of my dance clients are undernourished. Ideally individuals should eat at their maintenance calories plus the calories burned. That will put most dancers anywhere from 2200-4000 calories a day. It may sound like a lot but research shows that when active dancers generally do ok with this. When they increase there calories they notice they have more energy and feel better. A good rule for protein is double your kg weight in grams would be a good goal. Some may have problems with this so I would start with half that and work your way up. So a 50kg dancer would start at 50g of protein and gradually change increase it to 100g a day. It’s important not only for your muscles but your organs. Malnutrition effects the organs more than the muscles so try to increase your protein and calories if you struggle to eat enough.
*their
I put her food in cronometer and she seems to be getting roughly 100-120 grams of protein which is quite good. All of her other nutrients are also quite good although the calories are definitely low for her activity level.
I've seen a number of the ballet dancers what they at least say they eat in a day. Usually they insist they eat "a lot" because they have to dance but what they think is "a lot" is influenced by a lifelime of trying to get a ballet body so is actually not enough for anyone else trying to do a day of dancing. They are small because they worked at it and they are exhausted in away I do not think they would be if they were not always undereating.
All the muscle they do not actively use gets weeded away resulting in the long and lean look they are after. Hormones in the too thin women are also not good, resulting in brittle bones. I just wish they'd just lay it all out there.
yo just bc this is a wieiad it doesnt mean shes asking for ur advice lol u dont know her personally
how would you determine the maintenance level of calories?
Hey guys! I love Maria and think she’s great but I know a lot of people watching this will be very impressionable. I also went to vaganova and was stick thin - I ate waaayyyy more than this. This is very little even if recovering.
I have info about this on my channel. You’re an athlete. Maria darling you’ll heal quicker if eat a little better and probably will reduce your injury risk too ❤️ Take care
Impressionable is exactly the right word. Maria's physique is becoming the new 'standard' and any videos showing what she eats will be emulated meticulously by a percentage of her audience, some may even decide they have to eat less than her. I'm glad she clarified that this is her diet while not dancing, but share your concern.
I will say though, as a former anorexic, it is a relief to see that she is not afraid of high calorie foods like cheese, sugar and oil. Hopefully young impressionable people will see that too; a ballerina can eat such things. Her comment about milk was a bit alarming, certainly suggestive of the culture of her profession. I've heard a Russian ballerina talk about how she was bullied for her size as a student and accused of drinking milk. I think they called her 'milkblood'. It's all very sad.
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
The level of concern trolling toward women like Maria is so gross. I was reading on a ballet forum that some people didn't think Wendy Whelan should be allowed to be Associate Artistic Director of the NYC Ballet because she was too thin. Like dancers would just catch an ED from looking at her. Imagine taking an artist like Wheland and boiling her accomplishments down to that. And it's always women tearing her down.
@@clobberelladoesntreadcomme9920 we aren’t concerned so much about Maria but rather the 13 year old girls out there who think it’s normal to have an egg for dinner. Young girls will replicate that thinking it’s normal. As someone who went to vaganova myself, I am about helping others and bringing awareness that this isn’t the only way etc. I was in school the same time as Maria, just s bit older. I adore her. There’s no hostility towards her here. You’re getting the wrong message.
@@balletwithisabella show some respect to Maria then. She is an athlete, this is her recovery meal which contains many wholesome foods and she already is telling others she has another video on her diet when she is training coming so she can provide more information. She did this cause people asked to see what she eats. She is not responsible for what people take away from this video and commenting that this will lead little girls astray is just making Maria look awful. Calling her ‘Maria darling’ like you know her well and telling her what to do just you cause you think your experience at Vaganova gives you the right to talk to your classmate like this is just odd.
It was a joy to see you in a different and more everyday setting.🥳🥳😚Thanks for sharing and being brave enough to put this on the internet. It was noticable you'd put in some thought on how to present everything beforehand and show us in a clear way. Also the editing was clear but fun at the same time.
Eating, drinking and fueling our bodies in a good way is such an important part of our day to day lives. Whenever I eat unhealthy I absolutely notice and feel a change in my overall mood and feel much more tired and exhaust more easily. I totally love to start the day with greek yoghurt, fresh fruits and granola with a sprinkle of honey. Whenever I do I feel much more energetic and ready to take on a long and busy day.
Love your content and wish you and your family all the best for the upcoming holidays. Kind greetings from Holland 🇱🇺🙏
Hope you have a speedy recovery. I enjoy all your videos.
Thanks Maria for sharing this, I think this is the most anticipated video by many. you are very courageous, and turning the comments section on as well. But I guess, food is a lifestyle choice, so we shouldn’t be pinpointing whether Maria should eat more or less comparing to our own lifestyle choices. She’s just sharing her own diet, if she hasn’t shared this, no one will be commenting on the food she ate and life will go on as normal for her. Furthermore, she has been taking advices for her food choices from nutritionists, colleagues etc, maybe her meals have been planned out for her by nutritionist we all never know. And she could be eating lesser/more than usual because of her schedule. Anyway, thank you Maria for sharing this, it really satisfies our curiosity!
I agree with you, every person has a different diet depending on their lifestyle. Me personally I need to have this kind of diet because I have arthritis. My diet needs to be very balanced with almost cero sugar, salt, red meat, etc. I stopped having a good diet and my bones hurt, last year I got sick with a stomach bacteria and had to get back to a very strict diet. Now I weight like 44.5 kg and the doctor said I’m totally okay because I have to be light because of my disease 😊
Thanks for showing. 🥰
Always waited for such a video. 😉
I'm absolutely in love with your kitchen,such beautiful decor and colours. Stunning.
As someone who's no ballerina and could stand to lose some weight and eat better, this paint an encouraging a picture of healthy, joyful, creative eating. The prominence of comfort foods defined by protein and fat is reassuring. It surprises me that you can eat that way while not exerting yourself. Maybe I could reduce my portion sizes and sugar intake with this many cheese-and-fancy-yogurt-related things a in my life. Whatever it would or wouldn't do for me, at least this feels maintainable.
I'd love you to discus how ballerina's lose weight, if and when necessary, while keeping their bodies strong, safe, satisfied and healthy.
The best way to lose weight is to do a metabolic analysis to know how many calories you need to sustain your weight - then eat within thet calorie range and cut 500 calories a day and add
In 30 minutes of additional physical work (walking briskly or exercises) And u will
Lose 1 pound a week - which is what is healthy to lose.
@@ipt3000no! Not calories! So outdated. Look at glycemc index/ insulin. It is sugar and carbs that cause fat, not the old calories in/ out method. Fat and protein dont make you fat! Look up keto. Many great doctors explain it
@@Julia29853 I’m a professional in this field with a background in chemistry and nutrition as well. Everything I’m saying, here is exactly the truth.!!!
Love this content! Thank you for sharing 🤍
Love this video Masza! And thank you for admitting that your meals don't always look so beautifully organised on the plates :)
Машенька! Спасибо за то, что делитесь такой любовью, такими интересными видео!)❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing your meals! I love the air fryer as well! You made me crave the salmon 😋. I find your videos not only informative, but calming 🙏🏼❤✌🏼
All of your meals look delicious and nutritionally balanced!
Everything looked delicious, thanks for sharing! A little tip I learnt from my Mum for taking the shell off your boiled egg - place it on the firm bench top and with a flat palm roll the egg back and forth using a little pressure to crack the shell. It will be much easier to remove - I love boiled eggs too.
Great video! Thank you for sharing with us. A little tip with eggs. You can put them in the steamer with your vegetables and the shell will come off really easily.
thanks for sharing something so many will have opinions on ❤ the kitchen is so cute love the tiles
Wow thankyou Maria!!! This is amazing, I have been messaging you for ever about this great idea, and now you have recreated it!! I am immensely thankful for your channel - and hopefully soon you can create a day in the life!! I wish you a speedy recovery, and I am sending you so much love and respect!! My inspiration 🥰👏😍🥹🥹🥹
Hi everyone! I am a professional ballerina and food blogger/ youtuber and I wanted to give you my humble opinion: first of all, Maria obviously eats little (compared with other non dancers or dancers) and does it consciously, that could explain why she is thin (it could also be her body type!). She follows this “diet” in order to maintain the body/shape she chooses to have, according to her criterias, to be as beautiful as she chooses to be and perform the best she can. If this is her choice, you could try to understand it. She is a very well-known dancer who is apreciated for her body and lines, and for her level of performance. She is probably trying to keep it the way it is.
If Maria ate more, she would probably be more “performant” (even though in dance, performance not only relies on how much you eat, but also on how well you feel about your own body, on self esteem and confidence), her body would probably change as well (she would gain muscle and some fat), and not that I would see anything wrong about it (I like dancers of all shapes), but that would have to be her own choice.
She might feel great and happy, perform well and love her body the way it is. If this diet allows her to be healthy and get her regular period, feel energetic enough to perform at her level and improve, then let her eat what she likes! I hope that if this is not the case, she is aware of it and changes her diet to become healthy again. And please, don’t be as stupid as to use this video as a reference: this is only what suits HER and her body in this particular situation. Not everyone can feel fulfilled and energetic eating this food and you have to adapt you eating to your own rules.
Secondly, I think she is talking about what she eats in “a day” (not everyday) during a time of long term injury, and as a ballet dancer I assure you that if you intend to maintain your exact weight (on the long term) while you don’t train as much as usual, you have to reduce your calorie intake (and that must be what she is doing in this video).
Thirdly, the title of the video does not reflect the real content of it because it might have been chosen in order to improve the click through rate (considering her level of fame she might have a community manager who decides which title would generate the most clicks).
And finally, you know, ballet dancers who are thin probably follow a diet, that is usual. It does not necessarily mean that they have an eating disorder. Don’t you organize your schedule? And you are not obsessive about it or have OCD right? Well Maria organizes her meals. Just as other athletes do as well, the only difference is that a ballet dancer such as Maria is thin and decides to remain so. I don’t know her personnaly, but I give her the benefit of the doubt: if she was sick, anorexic or orthorexic, she would reach for help, or ask her doctor’s advice.
Be nice on the social medias,
Cheers everyone 🫶🏻
A very mindful reminding. That's pretty much what I think. Thank you very much for the coment.
@@feiluo109 thank you ☺️
This is the best “what I eat in a day” video I’ve seen…. I’ve seen other videos by dancers and have been upset by how little they eat, especially protein… I think the diet is great and has a lot of nutrition… I’m not sure why people want her to eat more while not being active…People can only fit so much in at a time:) She did say she would eat more when active and adds snacks as needed… She started the day with two types of cheese which have fat and protein, oatmeal which also has protein, and she ate plenty of carbs and wasn’t shy about adding honey, sugar, and fruit… She also had a large piece of salmon and plenty of salad for lunch, and even added juice… She had three types of protein for dinner and added fruit. The yogurt and egg also have fat… It may be a little more plain than some people like but I don’t see how this is under nourishing oneself as long as you are eating when hungry and until satisfied… Definitely add more snacks as needed or another meal if working out all day, but if you aren’t hungry you shouldn’t be told to force more food down… That’s silly… Maybe also cultural differences as most people where I live eat a large dinner… I dislike a lot of food late in the day so it makes sense to me… I also eat less than she does but am about 7 inches shorter :) 😊
it's cultural- people in Russia and Eastern Europe don't want a pile of food late in the evening. 5 pm or so. i find a big meal after about 6 to be sickening. you can get calories other times a day. also i so agree- i'm so sick of the "force more food in!". she doesn't want to be fat, she wants to be healthy and in shape- thus protein and good foods. no garbage and no junk food. I'm sure she has it from time to time but not often
Great video! I have been looking forward to this kind of video for a long time!
And I like that you keep a perfect posture even prepping food 😂
I think you eat very healthily.
Hope you recover well and soon from your injury.
Thankyou for sharing.
Every blessing.
You're so awesome! Thanks for the video :)
Your kitchen is so beautiful🤩 I love those tiles and cupboards
Me too!
Loved this video! You are such an inspiration, so nice to see someone who cares about their health🙂 found this very informative and motivating. Thank you so much for posting this video!!!
As far as I can tell the topic of the video is ,’What I eat in a day as a ballet dancer.’ It’s not , ‘What a professional ballet dancer needs to eat according to a nutritionist. ‘ Don’t expect perfection people. There is no claim that this is what everyone or anyone SHOULD eat. Also: Ballet and other extreme sports that require certain looks might not always be the healthiest life style. Professional ballet in stage form is not something anyone does for their health. It takes a toll on the human body and that’s why people don’t train at that level for 50,60 years. People’s bodies can perform at this level for a number of years and then they have to reduce the intensity and hopefully they can continue with a healthy amount of exercise for the rest of their lives.
yeah, 100%. the issue at hand, i think, is that most people really don't understand how big the pressure is at the theater, and looong before that, at school. these ballet dancers don't even have a chance at a normal diet. they start worrying about their bodies at the age of 10, basically. eating disorders are so common in this world, it's a wonder how ballet schools are still legal. it's great that Maria tries to eat healthy, and quite honestly, she eats a lot compared to other ballet dancers (based on their similar videos). carbs are painfully missing from her diet but other than that she has nutrient-rich meals so good for her. she does her best with the options she has.
@@vanclemmons I really don't understand why they eat so few carbs
Lovely video Maria❤
I admire your discipline and your work💗
Greetings of Argentina🇦🇷
So fun! Thanks for sharing. Youre so inspiring ❤
I spent the whole video admiring your beautiful kitchen!
Looks amazing! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing, it was so interesting ❤ as all you share, thanks 🙏
Your kitchen is so pretty. Your diet is amazing and I will try to eat more like this.
We do call them pomegranate seeds in North America, so you're spot on. :-) Wishing you a speedy recovery. P.S. I totally agree with your assessment of the air fryer being the best invention in recent period. I LOVE mine.
What a beautiful kitchen 😍 I love the colourful tiles, very cute.
Hi Maria!, sorry to hear you're not dancing right now, I hope you'll get better soon so you can go back to the stage, because you're a really great ballerina!
Thank you so much for this video, there are so many recipes I didn't know, and what I want to try... And also I think it's so important to broke all that myths about the ballerinas diet, because I really think it's a lie that you don't need to eat almost nothing when you're a ballerina, but it's only to find that balance. I want to be a ballerina, and I'm training for it, and that topic, about the food and all that things it's a topic that has me a little confused in this moment... So...
Again, thank you so much, and I'll ve waiting for the other video :) Greetings fron México!
I've also read that the most highly coloured foods are very/most nutritionally dense. So I try to mix up my greens - which are my favourite - with orange, red and purple foods too. E.g., cabbage salad that is 50/50 red and green cabbage; plus I try hard to have something orange every day too - carrots, yams, squash. As you say, it looks prettier and more appealing to eat when the plate is filled with food that is bright and colourful. Thanks for the tip about the airfryer. I just thought they were trendy but I can see how they could be useful!
Same - the air fryer company should sponsor her haha because I think many of us will run out to get one after this video. I love how affectionately Maria pets her favorite tool the air fryer 🥹
@@SarahFieldsenpointeand her latest black tutu ;) ❤
Wow I love your kitchen, it has so much personality and detail! Here in America our kitchens look much different, thank you for sharing! ❤
I feel like this is a very accurate diet for someone who is a dancer when they’re not training extensively… it’s a solid balance of complex carbs, protein, veg, and fruits! I ate very similarly when I was dancing (omg like 20 years ago). It’s also extremely common for lunch to be the largest meal of the day, so I can see what a light dinner is ideal. Also that yogurt and mango will be super filling, too! Well done!
@@draalttom844and how many calories does a female who does not exercise need in a day?
@@draalttom844 it depends on height and weight, 2000 is too much for a thin short person. They would gain on 2000
@@draalttom844 if you are 5’2 eating more than 2000 in a day without being active you will gain!
Thin does not necessarily mean underweight, you can be thin and eating enough
@@draalttom844 okay believe that then but its simply not true.
Маша, спасибо за контент. Восхищаюсь твоим профессиональным подходом и волей.
Your food is so colorful! and I never would have tried cottage cheese over oatmeal, good idea! Delightful video, thank you for sharing your expertise :-)
Thank you for posting this very pleasant and interesting video.
My favourite fruits are strawberries and cherries.
I don't often drink milk but I like to use milk rather than water when making porridge.
I use water because the oats sort of provide their own (plant based) milk 😊
you're such a sweetie! thank you so much for this video!
Мария! Спасибо, что рассказываете о себе, своей жизни. Очень интересно! Слежу за Вашими упехами на сцене, восхищаюсь, желаю новых достижений, успехов в карьере! Конечно, будьте счастливы в личной жизни, каждый день!
Looks amazing!!! Well balanced healthy meals ❤
Loved this video ❤
Loved this food video and hope you do more. This is good, healthy food for anyone. Fresh and simple. So many great tips. Thank you!!
Love seeing you prepare whole, fresh food - thank you for sharing. I agree that the air fryer is a great tool - use it daily and it is easy to clean up. If most of us ate out less, used unprocessed food and realistic portions we would feel and look better.
All of your meals look delicious! I just bought an air fryer but I haven't tried it yet. After seeing how your salmon turned out I'm looking forward to making some fish. Yum!
Great job. Very well balanced diet and super inspiring. Love the content!
A bit off topic, but I love your kitchen. It's absolutely adorable.
The truth is everyone is responsible for themselves. If others follow that is a them problem not you. No one is forcing anyone to follow this eating plan. It works for Maria. It is what Maria eats and is happy with. If people don't agree don't follow the channel or don't watch the video, scroll on. It is called make your own decisions and let others make decisions for themselves.
Your English is on top!!! ❤love.
Looks very good but very small portion sizes. I guess this explains how it is possible to be this lean.
Maria, do you have enough energy to dance all day long with such meals??
It's better for sustained metabolism, gentle digestion and energy release to eat smaller meals and regular nutrient dense snacks throughout the day. Larger meals cause an insulin spike and drop that would create fatigue at a time of the day when she needs to be utilising that energy.
For me, they are large portion sizes. No way could I eat that much for breakfast! For me, the bread and cheese is one meal, the cottage cheese and fruit is another. The oatmeal with fruit would be the third!
Yes this totally works for me! Larger meals slow my down and my digestion is sluggish and energy levels low. Little and often and I feel alive, fresh, happy and full of energy to workout and live life!
@@curious1366 But you probably don’t only eat one egg and a little bit of broccoli for dinner-no wonder she’s hungry in the morning…
Delicious, healthy and balanced meals. Well done!
Sometimes I look at skeletal ballerinas and I think there’s no way they are getting a period. I could be wrong, but I feel like that’s a good gage. If your period is shut off for months or years from dance and diet, your body is going into in fight or flight survival mode. Even if you are extremely muscular and strong.
Dear Maria,
I have seen so many videos of you dancing!!
You are truly an incredible ballerina.
So perfect!!!
It's amazing 👏 how you can make cooking 🍳 so interesting and fun!!!
I am going to try to make the same foods for breakfast, lunch, and 🍽 dinner.
Thank you for your 📹 videos and your English is so good!!!
I hope you recover soon from your injury.
Rebecca Brand 💗
Thank you Maria for sharing what you eat in a day. Please excuse all of the unwelcome input in the comments. It’s very rude considering you are doing this voluntarily and in your own time. It’s very generous of you and people should be more respectful. What you eat is a matter for you and your doctor/coach only. Obviously you’re not going to take the unsolicited advice of random strangers on the internet! I feel compelled to apologize for those comments as it’s rather embarrassing 🙈. Still, as I say, thank you for this. It was most interesting. I enjoy hearing about all aspects of your life, not just your training and performance as such. As far as my favorite fruit? I would have to agree and say mango, although any of the stone fruits (apricots, peaches etc) when they are at their best are also just divine! ❤❤❤
Know I know why I love ballet. You are truly a dream come true!
OMG WE EAT ALMOST THE SAME!!! Sweet and salty! The combination of sweet oatmeal with cheese on bread, and the egg and broccoli with a yogurt and fruit on a side. I also take egg and broccoli when i don't want to cook something elaborate xD Glad to see someone who enjoys all flavours. Sounds yummy!
Been dying to find out what you eat, you work out so hard!
She said this is what she eats when not dancing.
Well I am not a ballerina though I practice ballet and other daily sport activities and yes it is healthier and easier to eat small meals throughout the day thus enabling a fast digestion and the pursue of sport activities, whatever, without having a heavy belly. It may feel at times "restrictive" but it is a choice of balancing one's life with the right diet. Water is effectively very important throughout the day as rightly mentioned by Maria. The only remark I can make when seeing the video is that there is no rice/potatoes or pasta in addition to green vegetable/salad. Anyway it is good to note that Maria tries to get a balanced eating diet.
Really enjoyed this video. When I was a dancer my diet was very similar. I had to give up after a accident and my diet changed. Thanks for sharing xx
I eat very similar to you, and LOVE salmon with a salad. A couple of years ago I learnt that something that's very good for muscle function is potassium. Two things that contain a lot of potassium is avocado and mango - which you obviously already eat. But even if I do different kind of salads, when I eat salmon I started to do a salad with avocado, mango and some edamame beans/soy beans (for extra protein), and then I cover it all with crema di balsamico. This mix tastes SO good with the salmon! From now on I will add some sesame seeds though. So thanks for the tip!
Hi Maria, I loved what I eat in a day I will definitely try the cottage cheese, oatmeal and berries and honey : )
Miss Khoreva, this is a trick most don't know, but since you like eggs....try frying only put a little water in the pan with a lid. It makes a soft egg, steamed a little, and it is handy. A glass lid makes it easier to watch how done it is.
Hi Maria, thanks for showing us that you DO eat!🙄🤣😂🤗❤️😍🥰❤️🙏🇳🇿
Ah! A behind the scene! I was not sure what would be revealed in a blind spot.
Have you tried overnight oats? Those are yummy with the bonuses of no cooking and less dishes!
Thank you for these yummy dishes to try.
，very very interesting meals, thank you for showing us.👍👍👍!
I think your relationship with food is wonderful. Using it to help and feed your body though nutrients is great!
Maria love your channel and your kitchen.
will you have merch at anytime?
i am very impressed with your diet. i have noticed a lot of ballet dancers do not get enough protein and just load up on carbs. but your diet is very balanced and has good proteins and healthy fats.
also, cheese is a very good whole food-high protein, great enzymes, unprocessed. i am a lover of cheese as well-my favorite is raw manchego.
also, cottage cheese is the best. and the little things in the pomegranate fruit are called “aryls” 😉
wow your meals look delicious, I want to try them!
I'm not a doctor or a dietician, but as far as I can see Maria is eating a variety of foods from all the food groups. She eats complex carbs, proteins, a variety of fruits and vegetables, seeds, oil. Somebody on this thread estimated the amount daily as 1200 calories? I think she is eating a variety of foods, but little of them. She needs to be very thin for her work on the Mariinsky stage - this is in part due to the preference of its Artistic Director for a certain physique - ultra long limbed and extremely thin. Dancers in other companies also have to be thin, but maybe not that thin. It's a real problem. The stage, as also the television/video etc, makes people look heavier than they actually are, so dancers try to be thinner than the average person. Also, the heavier the person, the more stress on joints. I don't know ... I think she is doing the best she can do eat healthily at the weight she needs to be for the Mariinsky stage but it seems very little.
She can't put weight on anywhere, not only on her legs. Ballet dancers need to be a little underweight to look good on stage. But, what looks very thin is actually the body type that dancers usually have. Very small frame is what makes her look so thin. Also, she needs to be lifted while male dancers are tired. Khoreva is not short, so bones are heavy, muscles not as heavy, but heavy, fat is not heavy, just unnecessary.
I would estimate it at closer to 600-800kcals. Salmon/oatmeal/eggs and vegetables are not very calorically dense. Maybe I'm underestimating the value of the cheese but cottage cheese is also not very calorically dense.
@NatashaEstrada you're right. I was estimating this to be barely 1000 calories as the vegetables in her meals don't count for a lot.
I didnt watch the whole video, you can correct me if I’m wrong, maybe she just eats this amount on days where she rests, and on days where she moves more she eats more?
Oh my, I love your kitchen
Pukka tea! I just spied it in your kitchen. I have the ginger and calm in my cabinet . The best!!!
I love your kitchen. This is the style that I’d love to have, fantastic.
I liked your food choices, good meal, and honestly, everyone who is commenting about nutrition, you should fo this/that - you know what’s best for you.
These days everyone is so opinionated 🙈
omg it looks so few 😮How can she perform such a physical life with so few food i dont understand, maybe she has snacks between meals ?
Such a wonderful meals and looking very nutritious for the Beautiful Ballerinas!
Thank you for sharing 🙏🩰🙇🏻♀️🙏🦋🪻㊗️❣️
Maravilhosa Maria Khoreva!👏🎶🌹
I would love to visit St. Petersburg and go to the Mariinsky! Very interesting watching your food preparation. Air frying salmon - looks like a really simple way to cook it. Had to laugh when you said you think eggs are delicious. I have such a hard time finishing a whole dozen before they expire. I load them up with salt and pepper or put hot sauce on them just to jazz them up.
Maria - You are absolutely adorable, as well as brave. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful diet. That protein yogurt looks so yummy! I admire you immensely-- your talent, discipline, and general attitude toward life! xoxo
To the Naysayers: I don't recall Maria asking for advice, so please keep the unwelcome, unhelpful, inappropriate, and hurtful comments to yourself. Thank you. She's eating what works for HER. Thank you again, Maria.
A Tirion Law “What I Eat in a Day” video offers a contrasting perspective in how to fuel a physically strenuous, demanding, and joyful lifestyle.
I love her RUclips channel!
I will lose sm weight if I eat like this but I really like the ideas and inspiration from the meals, I will definitely try the oatmeal it looks so good
I ate like that all my adult life, and Im still tiny. 5'3 100lbs and strong still. And according to tests, no osteopenia so certainly not the next stage (cant even say the word osteo......) As an athlete like Maria, you have to eat like that to stay strong, to maintain. My current age: 75 And im really glad i ate like that, with plenty of milk in my diet...like 6 - 7 qts a week. I am strong, and healthy bc of it. Back to class at age 70, which it included pointe work . Yes!! ❤
Her kitchen is gorgeous
Thank you for posting this video (even if I'm seeing it a bit late). :) The food all looks wonderful and delicious and is right up my alley, so I will be trying these out. You are correct: color is literally the spice of life (full of vitamins, nutrients, etc), ha ha. :)
Favorite fruit: Mango ^.^
thank you so much
I love this video, your beautiful voice and gentle talking style. The food looks delicious too. Please ignore some comments if they make you feel uncomfortable. In a world where talking about overweight is politically incorrect, people just turn their judgments toward whoever they could find to attack.
Omg I love that routine so muchhhhh ❤❤
I LOVE OATMEAL TOO! MY FAMILY ARE FARMERS AND MY GREAT GRANDFATHER'S FAVORITE MEAL WAS OATMEAL! I LOVE TO SWEETEN IT WITH NATURAL UNPROCESSED HONEY AND SOMETIMES I SWEETEN IT WITH STEVIA, MONK OR COCONUT SUGAR. AND, I LIKE TO USE CELTIC OR PINK HIMALAYAN SALT BECAUSE IT GIVES TO MANY MINERALS! AS FOR SALADS I USE A DRESSING I HAVE 2 FAVORITES: ONE IS MADE WITH TAHARI AND UMI PLUM SAUCE, MY OTHER FAVORITE IS A VINEGAR AND OLIVE OIL WITH GARLIC, SALT PEPPER AND SOMETIMES LIEMON. SO \YUMMY!
HAPPY HEALING MARIA!
I would have added a piece of bread to both lunch and dinner. And also 1 egg? Why not 3? I loved the cottage cheese and oatmeal idea!
wow you really look good in green sweater!! love it! 😜😍
You don't need to justify your love for a particular food, just eat it and enjoy. Of course everything in moderation. Great video!
Is not enough carbs...I remember I once saw a pro ballerina in usa eating pasta in most of her meals (is Italian ) and really surprised me but she said she needs LOOOTS of calories for what she is doing
its probably because maria is not dancing at this time, so she’ll need less calories
I think she eats super healthy. I don’t see anything wrong with what’s she’s eating.
Loved your video.
You’re so beautiful and elegant.
Wunderschöne Küche übrigens 😊
Man merkt, dass alles in Richtung Perfektionismus strebt ... in jedem Detail.
Devil's advocate: Take into consideration, she is currently not dancing on stage because she can't put too much weight on her legs. She also did mention small snacks throughout the day in between meals, like cookies. For this video, she states she's just covering the main meals. From what I see, she is currently eating nutrient dense, clean foods. Carbs oats, toast. Protein dense: Salmon, eggs (perfect protein), cheese, cottage cheese, Yogurt Omega oils salmon, and olive oil. She did not clarify what her current dance schedule is since she is rehabbing.
She is checking the boxes with salad ingredients and broccoli. Nutrient dense fruits like currants and pomegranates.
The amount of calories here is less than a toddler needs. An elite athlete in recovery needs to fuel themselves too. It means faster recovery and less injury.
@@gmochrie7439 Thank you for the clarification. I also understand that while she has a large platform of influence, Maria is a product of this system. Attack the system, not just the product. Don't forget she is a person with feelings that shared something that for some can be a vulnerable thing to share. This criticism should be directed at the Marinsky and other theaters that prop up this unhealthy ideal. While not enough calories to sustain as a professional athlete. Let's appreciate that it has evolved from the jello, liver and cocaine diets of the 70's.
@@gmochrie7439how much? 1200?
Ooooo! Now I'm totally sold on the air fryer. I didn't know it had a fish setting?! Awesome. Not surprised by your diet. You eat so healthy and well for your career. This was a great video. I was totally in interested in how you ate as a dancer. Glad you posted Also, can you tell us what brand of yogurt that was? It might not be available in the States.
