Victor Claver Podcast
"Eat well, educate calmly and enjoy time with family 🏀🍎"

🎧 Introducing the Naranja Amarga podcast (Juan Llorca and Nutrikids), with support from Zapato Feroz 👣

🍊 In this episode, Melisa Gómez and Juan Llorca chat with former basketball player Víctor Claver about food, sports and fatherhood, in a close dialogue full of anecdotes.

Highlights

• Childhood and habits: Home-cooked meals, long after-dinner conversations, and a family example (fruit and salads always on the table). The Algirós market shaped his shopping habits.

• Sports and food: He didn't "fine-tune" his diet until he turned pro. In Spain, there was more structure; in the NBA, he experienced strange schedules (waffles for breakfast and PB&J in the locker room!) and a lot of individual freedom.

• Food culture: In the US, "real food" costs more; in Russia, the language barrier means a return to cooking at home.

• Parenthood: Early dinners with the family 🧡. When feeding your little one: a mix of purees and solids, without being obsessive; offer, repeat without pressuring, and lead by example.

• Children's Selectivity: Stages of "no" and difficult vegetables (hello, broccoli). They use games/sports to motivate, without rigid prohibitions on sweets and ice cream.

• Victor's final advice: Respect each child's pace, accompany them calmly and consistently, without comparisons or rushing.

• Fierce bonus: Fierce question, a little gift from Superdo, and lots of hope that Hugo enjoys the sport (whichever one he chooses) 🏀
