Tom Brady is a big fan of the muscle pliability concept. Basically, he believes that the muscles should be kept long and soft to get the best results in any sport. So, due to this reason, he abstains from lifting too much weight. Instead, he opts to focus on doing what he has to do on the field and that is dropping and throwing.

He also follows a bit weird diet plan, which received some stern criticism from experts including Men’s Health magazine in an article by a Ph.D. nutritionist. Basically, he avoids eating fruits, tomatoes, eggplant, white flour, white sugar, and iodized salt.
