Michael Phelps ‘ diet (12000 calories a day)

Filed in Pastas 25 comments

Michael Phelps’ recent tabulation of his daily meals conjured up an image of reckless abandon: 2 pounds of pasta, an entire pizza, energy drinks, two cups of coffee, a five-egg omelet, a bowl of grits, three slices of French toast with powdered sugar, three fried-egg sandwiches with cheese and chocolate chip pancakes. The account left many asking, what do Olympians really eat?

Some of the responses to this video are pretty amusing…

Some people seem to believe he’ll eat 12,000 calories per day everyday… (theres a thing called carb loading)
And theres people comparing him to top bodybuilders…(i just wont comment on the lack of intelligence here…lmao)

I think he released details about his diet which were exaggerated so his rivals would copy it but wouldn’t be able to burn it off with the intense training he does, resulting in them getting fat and essentially ridding Phelps of any real competition. true tactician.

@janglots yea that’s amazing…the dude can do it because he is a successful olympic swimmer. That’s sets him apart from an average person who is only exercising for fun…

@prakashwicked

top bodybuilders are not olympic swimmers. swimming is an endurance sport and their bodies function much differently than a bodybuilder.

@bce5150 Well, not necessarily. Yes, for most people, he eats a lot of calories, but you also need to consider how much exercise he does each day. For crying out loud, he does 200 meter butterflies! I’m in the swim team in my town, and that’s enough to make me vomit blood!

He might look like a fitness model but mark my words – He’s gonna lose his health earlier than normal thin and fit people who eat 3,000 calories or whatever.

@DanReborn Im sorry about that comment, i just was in a really bad mood. You just shouldn’t be hating on Michael Phelps, because you probably don’t comprehend how much work and effort it takes to be a multi-gold Olympian. I am a swimmer myself, knowing how hard training for swimming is. If you just don’t like Michael Phelps, then don’t hate on him and don’t go on his videos just to post comments like that. And by the way, sorry bout’ the comment.
