Howdy,

I read an article last week about Michael Phelps’s diet.  It turns out he eats 12,000 calories a day!

This is 9,500 calories a day more than the FDA recommends.

He told NBC that on an average day, this is what he eats…

Breakfast: 3 fried egg sandwiches, 2 cups coffee, 5-egg omlette, bowl of grits, 3 pieces of french toast, 3 chocolate chip pancakes

Lunch: 1 pound pasta, 2 ham and cheese sandwiches, energy drink (1,000 calorie)

Dinner: 1 pound pasta, 1 large pizza, energy drink (1,000 calorie)

Looks like he isn’t following the Carb Rotation Diet.

Now before you go out there and try this yourself, keep in mind that Michael Phelps exercises about 30 hours per week.

He actually has to keep his calories intake up to compensate for all of the calories he burns during his 30 hour per week workouts.

Whew!  I don’t think my stomach could handle this much food.

And I know I won’t be followng the Michael Phelps Diet any time soon.  

But it was interesting to hear what he eats.

Have an amazing day.

Scott
