Cameron_R Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 Decided that I need to eat more because it looks like my progress has plateued, so I watched this hoping to get a tip or two. It didn't help me at all, but raised this question for me.In the vid Robert Oberst says he eats 15k to 20k calories every day in 6 meals. That's 2500 to 3333 calories in every meal, six times a day.Is he bull shitting or is that something those guys actually do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GyzzBrah Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 Juan Morell eats 20K cheat meals every couple of weeks, and I heard the worlds fattest woman eats a good 30k everyday without a fuss. Guess in this dudes case it's all a sweet combination of Experience, Dedication, Incredible appetite, and drugs. Also it might be bullshit. *drinks* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9762291220 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Seems too high to be eating every day. Hes not some ultra marathon runner or endurance swimmer and doubt even they are eating 15-20k calories daily. He just talking shit so he seems more hardcore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeroid Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 I don't see why it's so hard to believe. If you're 6'6+, 160kg+ without having a ridiculously high bodyfat and you're training hard everyday then I think it's possible to work up to that calorie intake.

FellowshipOfTheRon Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 can he do it? yeah probably, but highly doubt he does it every day on a regular basis.even though he's freaking massive, no way his energy expenditure can get anywhere near that level. would be bloated like a mofo but no doubt those strongman guys eat like crazy. probably combination of trying to sound like a big badass, doesnt know how to count calories and putting on a show for the camera.

Realtalk Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Is how much he lifts more important than how much he eats. If someone lift same him on 5k calories a day then that more impressive. If someone interview me I tell them reble do my diet and feed me 700 calories in week and 9000 calories on weekend... Then I be hardcore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameron_R Posted October 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 I did a rough calc ...On top of what I already eat every day (approx 2,700) I would need to have 148 protein shakes each day to get up to 20,000 calories.LOL I still think it's complete BS. No one can eat that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeroid Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 You probably think it's not humanly possible to deadlift 460kgs or bench 325kgs either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameron_R Posted October 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Fair point. I started the thread because I just can't fathom how.If you can give me a guess at what someone on 15k calories would eat in a day that might get my brain across the line.

Realtalk Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 I can't even eat 5000 calories per day on a consistent basis (mainly cause cbf). I mean if I put my mind to it and made it a priority yes I could do it. Same goes for 20000 if you woke up each morning and made it your reason for being alive to eat that much and focused on it u could do it.but man what a chore that would be! And the types of foods you have to eat to get that many calories into a day would be so unhealthy. But he's strong as an Ox and maybe that's all he cares about.its doable, he prob doesn't have a job or a life getting in the way of his eating, it probably is his job.

Leeroid Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 6 meals of 3400 calories a day. Mass gainer shake with 1l of full cream milk, 50ml of olive oil and 100g of protein powder. 1400 cals100g of almonds. 600 cals. 400g meat (chicken thigh/rump steak), 500g mashed potato with mayo and cream etc, 4 eggs. 1400 cals.That's a 3400 calorie meal. Baconator from wendys is 900 calories. I could eat 4 of those if I wanted to in one sitting and I'm not a huge eater. Watch an eating contest video on youtube and those guys can eat 10,000 calories in ten minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
