6500 cals a day

[ThisisOverload]

6 meals a day and ate every 3-4 hours.

Did he wake up to eat?

His story is unravelling already

I also know people who eat 6 meals a day, they call two rice cakes and an apple a meal

You just like to argue with people. 

I'll ask him to start an account to debate you openly.  I was just trying to make a point that it's possible to eat 5-6k calories a day because i know someone who did.  If you don't believe it i could care less.

A lot of athletes use them for pain management.  Very popular for Triathletes and such.

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS or TNS) is the use of electric current produced by a device to stimulate the nerves for therapeutic purposes. TENS, by definition, covers the complete range of transcutaneously applied currents used for nerve excitation although the term is often used with a more restrictive intent, namely to describe the kind of pulses produced by portable stimulators used to reduce pain.[1] The unit is usually connected to the skin using two or more electrodes which are typically conductive gel pads. A typical battery-operated TENS unit is able to modulate pulse width, frequency and intensity. Generally TENS is applied at high frequency (>50 Hz) with an intensity below motor contraction (sensory intensity) or low frequency (<10 Hz) with an intensity that produces motor contraction.[2] While the use of TENS has proved effective in clinical studies, there is controversy over which conditions the device should be used to treat.

Thanks. Sounds hard core.

You may have but it wasnt him..

They are useless. I had one and tried it for a while. It just triggers your muscles into spasm. Does nothing for recovery because recovery is biochemical and requires diffusion controlled processes. That's why a heating pad works

I never asked him that but i can if you want me to?

I can say 100% this is true, i sat 15 feet away from the guy for almost 5 years.  He'd eat 3-4 salmon fillets at a time for lunch with veggies and rice.  Probably weighes around 185 pounds.

Not that big at all, been one of the top Ironman competitors in Texas for 4-5 years.  He used to tell me his "short" weekend runs were 12-15 miles.

I think when you have spent your entire life training for triathlons and Ironmans, this might be possible.  Not sure, but the guy is 100% legit.  He's sit at his desk with a tens unit hooked up to him.

He's probably on the extreme high end for calorie consumption but it's not out of the question. When I did cycling stage races - multiple days in a row where we did 60+ mile or more races- I could barely keep up with calorie needs. That's why you lose weight in such events. I raced at 175 pounds and ate about 4000 cals a day. Hard to keep track though because most of those calories are liquid form. And you do get sick of eating.

The example you give of him eating 4 salmon filets isn't all that many calories. At 160 cals each per filet, with rice and veggies, that's less than 1000 calories. I can get nearly that from two medium sized  bags of peanut m&ms.

A 15 mile run for an average endurance athlete is less than 100 calories per mile. So he burned less than 1500 calories. For seasoned runners its more like 80 cals per mile because you get more efficient and burn less. So he burned a bit more than his lunch

On the other hand bodybuilders seem to pride themselves on gluttony. Eating a lot of food is some sort of badge of how hardcore you are.

how many buckets of semen does it take to make 6500 calories.  I'm sure for most getbiggers that's all before lunch.

Maybe 6 months ago I ate at a west African restaurant. Had some type of chicken stew and Fufu. My impression of the meal was that it tasted pretty bland, little spicing or salt. It was ok but bland.

Thanks, mate.

I did 5900-6500 every single day for 3 months.

Went from 185 to 205 lbs. About 60% clean/40% junk, 800-900g of carbs a day(didn't really aim for a certain amount), everything was weighed/measured and input into myfitness pal.

Was lifting heavy 4 times a week, walked 30-35,000 steps a day 5 days a week(12-15 hour shifts at a warehouse job building pallets.)

After a month or so Everytime I ate I'd start coughing and hacking.

Was taking ox bile,enzymes,probiotics,nexium,betaine HCL. Still had terrible acid reflux constantly, would just be walking around and have acid come up multiple times a day,tasted like puke.

Shit about 5-6 times a day,rarely solid, sometimes there was clear phlegm looking shit.

Ate 2k for breakfast, gym, 1k lunch, protein shake before work(made sure to have 35-4000 before work),small lunch at work so I wouldnt puke picking up boxes all day,then I'd sit for an hour when I got home forcing some chili or chicken then eat a muffin and sleep.

Only drank coke and milk,no water since it didn't have calories. Was drinking one to two 2 liters a day.

Sounds like an awful experience.
