Georges St-Pierre, often known by the acronym GSP, is a retired professional mixed martial artist from Quebec, Canada. With titles in two divisions of the UFC, welterweight middleweight, St.Pierre is considered one of the greatest fighters in MMA history. He’s taken home a total of three Welterweight titles between 2006 and 2008.

Georges St-Pierre Diet
In 2018, St-Pierre also talked about intermittent fasting in an interview with Joe Rogan. Intermittent fasting typically describes a diet in which one fasts for 16 hours of each day, and restricts their eating to an 8-hour period of the day. For example, this would mean eating all your meals between 12:00pm and 8:00pm, or 2:00pm and 10:00pm, etc.
