The 38-year-old former UFC star, renowned for his exceptional endurance and stamina, attributes his impressive cardio abilities to half-ironman tournaments that he and his brother Nick regularly engage in during their off-seasons. Diaz&#8217;s ability to go the distance over five rounds of five minutes has been a key factor in his career success, often resulting in victories over opponents with superior skill levels.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Why The Diaz Brothers Use Triathlons To Develop Insane MMA Cardio\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TICkYJL-VFQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Diaz has challenged himself by participating in the renowned &#8216;Escape From Alcatraz&#8217; triathlon, known for its treacherous swim from the island. Following in his brother&#8217;s footsteps, Nate Diaz has now set his sights on competing in two triathlons, despite being just a month away from his highly anticipated fight against Paul. This demonstrates the Diaz brothers&#8217; commitment to pushing their physical limits and maintaining their endurance levels even in the midst of intense training and preparation for their respective bouts.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve got a race this weekend and next weekend also,&#8221; Diaz told the Pat McAfee Show. &#8220;But this one&#8217;s going to be in a lake so that&#8217;s good. Those are my favourite races, I never did Alcatraz though, my brother did it. I would have done that one but we race all year long and about a week or two out I try not to do too big of races.<\/p>\n<p>Both Nate and his brother <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmaweekly.com\/news\/nick-diaz-ready-for-ufc-return-as-soon-as-possible\">Nick<\/a> maintain their racing schedules regardless of being in a fight camp, and their upcoming boxing show is no exception. However, Nate has a particular aversion to participating in the swimming portion of triathlons that involve open-water swims. He admits to having concerns about potential shark encounters, which has led to a fear of being eaten. Despite this apprehension, Nate&#8217;s determination to compete and push his limits remains unwavering.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Diaz is known for his affinity for <a href=\"https:\/\/yebscore.com\/news\/jake-paul-smokes-cigarette-to-get-his-lungs-ready-for-boxing-vs-diaz\/\">marijuana consumption<\/a>, a habit that nearly jeopardized his and Paul&#8217;s fight venue in Dallas, Texas, due to the region&#8217;s stringent regulations against the drug. Diaz has playfully suggested that his performance in long-distance races would improve if he were able to indulge in marijuana while participating. &#8220;If I could smoke during them it would be better, because it makes me deal with it better,&#8221; he joked. &#8220;My whole career I have smoked weed and if I need to get a lot of s*** done, may as well get high. If you&#8217;re smoking a bunch of tobacco, nicotine and bull**** chemicals it&#8217;s bad, but not some natural weed.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the lead-up to his much-anticipated professional boxing match against Jake Paul next month, Nate Diaz has announced his intention to participate in two triathlons.
