Default The Breakfast of Champions

A Canadian reporter did a story on Michael Phelps' diet and tried to eat like him for a day.
globeandmail.com: Eat like Mike

No Wheaties box for Phelps; Frosted Flakes instead | Freep.com | Detroit Free Press

At least he's smart enough to make money.

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.

Who knew?

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.
