Well, I know personally guys that diet on >3000 calories and get in great shape. To each his own, I guess.

As far as Kevin goes, he's so obviously full of shit. He lies constantly. Interview with Palumbo? Guess what, he will claim that he dieted on fish only and no carbs. Dorian? Oh yeah, I ate just as much but maybe 500kcals less. He makes this shit up all the time.

You can diet pretty effectively on fish and shrimp. It just costs a fortune.

Just stumbled across a seminar from Dorian, Mr Olympia Shawn ray and Kevin Levrone that took place in the UK earlier this year.

Dorian States that he kept records of all his food choices, even offseason as a tool to tweak his performance and refine his physique.

6500 cals offseason was the norm at his peak bodyweight and never went below 4000 cals cutting for the Mr Olmpia contest.

that was a good/interesting video. thanks for sharing!!

Shawn is pretty interesting to listen to. Had he got a deeper voice, people would take what he says more seriously. As much as i respect Dorian, I still would doubt those numbers (not saying he's lying but not sure he's telling the truth either). We've all heard so much BS from Bbers that now everything one says is under scrutiny. My all-time favorite being:

Sir Bradley Wiggins (had to get that title in there lol) claims to consume 7K calories per day.

Why is it hard to believe that a guy with that much lean mass can diet on 4000 cals a day to get in contest shape?  It takes a lot of calories to support that much lean mass.......not to mention the massive amount of drugs he was most likely using......combined with the fact that it is 2500 calories less than what he ate offseason.  Makes perfect sense.

Dorian prepped a long time out, when he says precontest he could mean 12 weeks out

Great speech by Shawn Ray. Regardless of what you think of the man personally, he is living the dream...good for him.

Not surprising at all that DY could metabolise 4K a day, and still cut for the Olympia.

If a 180 pound male can cut on 2000kcals, a 300 pound male on boatloads of steroid and cutting agents sure can on twice that lol

Easily true.

Some people forget that calories are just fuel. If you're cycling training over 100 miles a day, then you need probably 3 x the fuel a regular sedintary person would use.

I used to do a 22 mile commute on my road bike, so after about 45 miles a day I was LOSING weight even though I bumped my calories by over a 1000 a day above my maintenance.

I don't know, I never did the math.

I was losing weight, whilst cycling ( speed ave of 20 miles per hour) for 2, 22 mile journeys per day, although I was eating 1000 kcals over my usual non cycling maintenance.

You be stupid to think that I can't burn 500 kcals, while fucking killing it on a road bike for 22 miles no breaks lol. That's about 80 mins of cycling lol, average fat bitches at the gym can burn 250 kcals doing 40 mins on a cross trainer

Hey Bigcyp when you "used to" ( I used to bench 400lbs when I was marathon training ) cycle 45miles a day 5 days a week, when did you find time to eat 1000kcal after your work plus 4 hours ( if no rain etc... ) ride?

Also, there was no boar semen manual collection job closer to your place of residence?

ZZZ is used to bringing cocks to orgasm with just the flick of his tongue, so has no concept of exercise and it's ability to use calories bigmc

'Used to' - would still be doing it if I didn't have multiple sclerosis now.

I ate around 600-800 kcals during the ride itself (mostly oat based, flapjacks etc) and had to down 100g of dextrose mixed with an isotonic drink to replace my glucose and salts once I arrived at work (otherwise i'd be in trouble).
