Although some fans are convinced Michael Jordan has some sort of health issue because of his eyes in The Last Dance (seen below), the speculation doesn’t seem to track with what his former personal trainer, Tim Grover, told The Chicago Tribune in 1996 about the athlete’s commitment to well-being. “I don’t monitor Michael’s nutrition plan anywhere near as much as the younger players I consult,” Grover said at the time about Jordan’s healthy habits. “He’s learned more each year what works for him, what gives him the most energy and stamina.”

That being said, Grover did note that Jordan “tends to lose weight quickly” as he has a “high rate of metabolism.” The trainer addressed this issue by advising Jordan to eat frequent and small meals throughout the day.
As for the NBA star’s fitness, Grover told the Basketball Network in 2019, “Michael would shut down everything outside of basketball and just train. Three workouts a day: workout, golf break, workout, lunch, golf break, workout, dinner, bed. Every day.”
