The Breakfast of Champions
A Canadian reporter did a story on Michael Phelps' diet and tried to eat like him for a day.

Re: The Breakfast of Champions
That's either bullshit, or spread out in smaller meals throughout the day. No competent athlete would consume 12,000 calories in just 3 meals.

Apparently you need to be careful of your Cream of Wheat intake.

Re: The Breakfast of Champions
Meh, soldiers in basic training will eat in upwords of 10k calories a day. If in the field, we'd sometimes do a lot more than that. I can definitely see a much more active, well tuned, and super huge athlete like Phelps doing 12k during training.

It's not how many calories throughout the day, but how many in 1 sitting. 4,000 calories is above an beyond what your body can metabolize in 1 meal, that's why athletes spread it out to 5-6+ meals a day.

well 2-3k are just from drinking, and im sure that's spread out thruout the day.
so hes taking in 3k a meal, and then 3k spread out thru the day.

1 MRE = 3500 Calories, approximately.
