Giuseppe Christian Zagarella is an Italian IFBB Pro who competes in Men’s 212 Bodybuilding. He began his pro career in Classic Physique in 2019 and moved to the 212 division full-time in 2023.
His best Olympia result came in 2024, when he placed sixth in the 212 division with a score of 30. Keone Pearson won that year, and Zagarella wore competitor number 17.
He has won four professional shows across two divisions: the 2020 Europa Pro and the 2022 Yamamoto Cup in Classic Physique, and the 2024 Toronto Pro and the 2024 Balkan Grand Prix in the 212. His verified record is 24 contests, with 12 top-three and 17 top-five finishes.
Fans searching for his diet will find a gap. Zagarella has never published a full day of eating, a meal list, or any calorie or macro figures. This article states that plainly, then collects everything he has actually said about his food, training and supplements.
What follows is built only from his own words, his coach’s words about his prep, and the official scorecards. Nothing here is invented, and every gap is named.
Giuseppe Zagarella Diet Plan
There is no published Giuseppe Zagarella diet plan. No interview, video, or article has ever printed his meals, his calories, or his macros.
The closest thing to a diet detail comes from his coach. Before the 2025 Dubai Pro, coach Mauro Sassi wrote that they had finished a 14-day low-carb test, ten weeks out from the show. Three days before the 2025 Olympia, Sassi wrote that they had kept the carbs low.
Those two notes are the whole of his public diet record. They describe a low-carb phase, not a diet plan. No food names, quantities, or daily totals were given in either post.
His record shows why fans keep asking. Across 24 pro contests he has four wins, 12 top-three finishes, and 17 top-five finishes. His best Olympia placing is sixth in the world in the 212 division.
Giuseppe Zagarella Meal Plan
No Giuseppe Zagarella meal plan exists in any source we could find. There is no list of meals, no food quantities, and no daily calorie or macro total from his own words.
Searches in English and Italian, across YouTube, Instagram, Fitness Volt, Generation Iron, and BarBend, found no full-day-of-eating video or post from him. His Instagram has a breakfast reel, but it names no foods and gives no amounts, so no menu can be printed from it.
A Spanish-language video about a 3,800-calorie diet also circulates, but its creator never names the athlete in it. It cannot be tied to Zagarella, so it is not used here.
So this section has no meal list to give. Any site that prints a Zagarella meal plan is guessing. This article will not.
Giuseppe Zagarella Supplements
Zagarella’s supplement sponsor is Yamamoto Nutrition. His Instagram bio names the brand as his sponsor and gives the discount code ZAGARELLA15, which his posts repeat.
No Yamamoto product, dose, or timing has ever been named in any source we found. The sponsorship is documented; a supplement routine is not.
Yamamoto Nutrition is the only supplement brand tied to him in any source we checked. No other supplement brand is named anywhere in his interviews, posts, or profiles.
Giuseppe Zagarella Workout Routine

No Giuseppe Zagarella training split has ever been published. There is no list of his exercises, sets, or reps in any source we found.
His Instagram reels show the work without printing a routine. They include a leg day, a short back workout, chest exercises, and a training recap, plus a reel of him training legs on an empty stomach the morning after a show.
A check-in reel with his coach put him at 103 kilograms. That is an off-season weight, well above the 212-pound class limit, and no training numbers were given with it.
His biography names Mauro Sassi of Team Stones as his coach. His 2026 posts credit Giuseppe Romano as his coach instead. He also works as an online coach himself.
Giuseppe Zagarella Diet Plan in 2026

2026 gave Zagarella two more 212 results and still no diet details. He placed sixth at the Toronto Pro on 14 June, then fourth at the Empro Classic in Alicante seven days later.
At Toronto he scored 28 with competitor number 35, in a class won by Vitor Alves Porto De Oliveira. At the Empro he scored 12 with number 37, in a class won by Angel Calderon Frias.
Only show winners qualify for the Olympia, so neither result put him in the 2026 field. He watched the Olympia from outside and wrote that he would work to earn qualification for the next year.
November 2026 brought the off-season. He posted that a new chapter was closing with his hunger intact, and announced a temporary break from competing to focus on 2027. No diet information came with either post.
