In this brief YouTube segment, the speaker advises athletes on healthier dining choices when eating out. He recommends opting for grilled options at fast‑casual chains such as Chick‑fil‑A (grilled menu items) and Chipotle, as well as any sandwich shop that offers grilled proteins. He highlights Osmo’s, a catering service favored by a teammate named Xavier, as a solid choice. The overarching guidance is to prioritize grilled meats and rice over typical fast‑food fare like Wendy’s or McDonald’s, which he suggests are less suitable for athletic performance.

If you're looking to eat out, guys, Chick-fil-A's fine if you get the grilled options. We got Chick-fil-A, we've got Chipotle. I'd say like any sandwich shop is gonna be a decent option. Xavier likes Osmo's and that's who's been catering you guys. Osmo's is a good one to eat out at. Anywhere where you can get like grilled meat, rice, like anything grilled is gonna be way better of an option than like going to Wendy's or McDonald's or anything like that.
