12,000 calories a day for phelps

for those of you who don't know micheal phelps is the most decorated athlete in olympic history.

it's crazy what this guy eats, i almost can't believe it.

 

[the elite addict]

he isnt eating 12,000 calories. Maybe half. I saw him on tv saying that he basically eats whatever he wants. 12000 calories is another story. Thats almost impossible to do on a consistant basis let alone in one day. Oh and did I mention, WRONG FORUM

Sounds exagerated.

i'd disagree, i bet he is easily eating 10k a day. he is downing 3k in energy drink a lone. all those carbs add up FAST

And with all that training, he is probably just eating at maintenance with that!

it just lists a big as breakfast, which is like a dozen eggs, some ham - not so protein enriched compared to steak or breast. I don't think he does 12000k/cals.. Plus if it's mostly energy drink carb crap I don't consider it eating.. On a weekend I can slam down 6000k/cal and still have room for more..

in the end, when you burn so much energy it's all about calories in vs calories out.. i eat a lot, i can afford to eat crap and not gain bad weight.. if 90% of my 4000k/cal daily total is clean thats 1000 of crap.. that's one fast food meal, the biggest burger, no mayo/cheese, a diet soda, and I tend to toss my fries for another small burger..

I saw that. That's just nuts. Yah know the guy doesn't prepare his own food. With all that training, you need to have that food prepared for you.

that's what I need, some lady to make me chocolate chip pancakes for me and my girl on the weekends.

saw on ESPN last night that he has 4%BF and weighs about 182...and he's 6'2 or 6'4. The guy burns some SERIOUS calories to maintain those numbers

 

[Sim882]

I don't think he's 4%.

But one thing that has amazed me in this meet, is that the male swimmers are ripped (more ripped than they used to be) - almost like track athletes and gymnasts - whereas the women swimmers are much flabbier than female track athletes, and even many female team sports (basketball, tennis)

Wtf is with the comment about the female fans becoming former female fans at the end???

Obviously the writer is hardcore jealous.
