Restrictions are often necessary for athletes to perform at their best, although some develop inventive strategies for coping with it in a healthy manner.The nature of high-level sports is that diet and training regimens need to be upheld for optimal success. Similarly, cheat meals are limited too for athletes. Guilty pleasures exist for a reason and sprinter Michael Norman isn’t an exception to this corollary, considering the strenuous amount of work he puts in on the track and in the gym. Michael Norman has an unexpected restriction. He isn’t allowed to eat ice cream. His partner Jenna Adams disclosed this interesting story, stating that because of his diet limitations, Norman “lives vicariously” through her.

In a recent “Olympics” YouTube video, Jenna Adams described how quirky Norman gets around his limitations.

Adams, who used to play volleyball, shared a cute side of their connection and cute antics, antics needed to propel him to greatness.

Michael Norman has a steadfast dedication to his sport, which includes tight food limits. Although many take ice cream for granted, Norman, an accomplished sprinter, stays away from it. He says, “I love ice cream.” Still, his partner doesn’t allow him to gorge on it and she humorously mentions, “He can’t eat ice cream.” But Michael Norman came up with a clever way to take pleasure in it quietly. Adams stated, “Michael likes to live vicariously through me.” she continued, “He will oftentimes order ice cream, and make me eat it so he can smell it.” The extent Norman goes to uphold his athletic discipline is shown in this humorous yet touching detail.

Adams’s support for Norman goes beyond just enjoying ice cream. She plays an essential role in his ability to decompress and cope with the demands of his sport. “What I can help him with and, you know, be a supportive partner is finding ways to relax,” said Adams, who seems to be a total green flag, from the looks of it. Norman needs this cooperation to help him deal with the demanding requirements of being a top athlete.
