NuGo Athlete of the Month: Abdul Al Selwady

Abdul Kareem Al Selwady is a professional MMA fighter based out of Dallas, Texas. He started fighting professionally seven years ago, and now at the age of 22, his current record is nine wins and one loss. He loves fighting because it is his passion and what he loves to do most. He has various upcoming MMA championships that he is looking foward too, but he recently had one of the biggest fights in his career and won!

His greatest achievement so far as a MMA fighter has been to motivate the people around him especially the local youth. He gives anti-bully martial art sessions around Dallas and loves being a role model. “Being able to use my platform as a benefit for the community is my greatest achievement,” he said.

Abdul loves NuGo Protein Cookies, and he uses them as a post-workout snack with coffee or a glass of milk. He says they satisfy his sweet tooth, but allow him to still enjoy some gains. “I never thought enjoying a cookie and staying fit could be so easy but thanks to NuGo it is,” he said.

Aside from doing MMA, he loves to come up with creative and healthy recipes. Follow Abdul on Instagram.
