On March 30, 2022, Curry was featured on the Men’s Health YouTube channel, wherein he shared everything he eats in a day during his Mr. Olympia prep. While performing two training sessions per day to hit every body part multiple times a week, the reigning Arnold Classic champ needs sufficient fuel to maintain his award-winning physique. Check out Curry’s diet in the video below:

Curry’s training days begin at 7 a.m. with some much-needed hydration. Curry estimates that he drinks three liters of water per day during warmer weather. He heads to the gym for his first training session before consuming his first meal of the day. Breakfast serves as a post-workout meal and consists of the following:
Meal One
- Potatoes — 350 grams
- Chicken — 200-220 grams
- Two to three eggs and/or egg whites

Protein remains consistent for Curry from meal to meal, but carbohydrates can vary. While 200 grams of carbohydrates are a median for him, meals can scale from zero carbs to 400 grams.
Meal Two
Note: if specific measurements of a food are missing, it was not mentioned in the video.
- Chicken
- Rice — 200-300 grams

Meal Six
- Fish of choice — 220 grams

- Rice — 200 grams (only if it is during his prep where the extra carbohydrates are warranted)
To the Olympia
The 2022 Olympia weekend is scheduled for Dec. 16-18, 2022. Curry will attempt to win his second Mr. Olympia title by dethroning two-time reigning Mr. Olympia Mamdouh “Big Ramy” Elssbiay. If Curry is successful, it would not only be his reclamation of bodybuilding’s highest achievement; it would also be his ascension in the history books as a multiple Arnold Classic and Mr. Olympia champion.
