"Big Fat cheese burger one thing i want it the most and some french fries" says Michael Phelps, that's the only thing he can think of after winning 8 gold medal in Beijing Olympics."Eat, sleep and swim. That’s all I can do,” says Phelps.
This is what i heard and read the news going around about what the typical daily food intake is for the new World Record-Setting 8 gold medal for Beijing and 14 gold medal for his career Olympian Michael Phelps?
Michael Phelps’ recipe for success is to eat 12,000 calories a day (4,000 per meal) resembles that of a reckless over eater rather than an Olympian.
here are the list:
Breakfast:
- Three fried-egg sandwiches with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, fried onions and mayonnaise
- Two cups of coffee
- 1 five-egg omelet
- 1 bowl of grits
- Three slices of French toast topped with powdered sugar
- three chocolate-chip pancakes
Lunch:
- a pound of enriched pasta
- two large ham and cheese sandwiches slathered with mayo on white bread
- 1,000 calories in energy drinks
Dinner:
- 1 pound of pasta
- 1 entire pizza
- 1,000 calories in energy drinks
Yes this is lots of food, only people who are too hungry can eat this so much food, but i understand Michael Phelps in swimming you can really get very hungry every time you come out of the swimming pool, its the only exercise that makes you hungry, other exercise can lessen your appetite but not swimming. and i think he s metabolism is fast as he swim so eating so much food for him is absolutely OK!
