My Workout Diary: Chris Cabrera
The Honey Deuce cocktail (Grey Goose Vodka, lemon juice and raspberry liqueur with an eye-catching cantaloupe ball garnish) has become one of the most recognizable symbols of the US Open Tennis Championship. Fans drink an ocean of them every year and covet the collectible cups they’re served in.
Grey Goose naturally keeps several of its brand ambassadors at the tennis center during the event. I asked one of them, Chris Cabrera, to keep a workout diary for me during the tournament. “It is one of the biggest events of the year for us, so you can imagine that it is my top priority for those two weeks,” they said. “My normal workout routine didn’t work for the schedule I had during this time, so I made adjustments and if it meant I could only run two miles and workout for 30 minutes I still did it.”
Cabrera also tried to drink at least two liters of water each day and cut down on their cocktail drinking. “When I know that I have a grueling week ahead of me of hosting and being out almost every night, I stop drinking a couple of hours before I go to bed,” Cabrera says. “This allows for a better night’s sleep. Staying hydrated is one of my top priorities in general. It also helps with weight loss, headaches and digestion.”
