Really?  I could've sworn he said 50000 lol.  Could you imagine?  You'd have to eat all day non stop!


Even 15000 sounds absurd though.

And he'd probably shit non stop, hence the stories with the towels and the hose.

Because it is bullshit. Zach Khan says he eats 4-5500 calories. I was eating 4500 consitently and had alot of trouble with that. It is far too difficult to consume more then that consistently.

I have trouble with 1,500.  But 15,000 is something that I don't doubt Greg at least tried.  Whether or not he managed to accomplish it and for how long I don't know, but given his quest to become the world's biggest muscular human being, I could definitely believe he attempted it.

I wondered about that.  Maybe the video was made later and at the time of the commentary Greg was in the off-season and weighing more?  320 is crazy given his age at the time.

It's something Kovacs probably did a few times and of course it got turned into a regular every day occurrence instead of the more realistic 2 or 3 times he probably got that high.

what if he consumed calories by way of osmosis, just absorbing it through the skin and bypassing digestion.

like soaking in a bath of olive oil and alcohol for two hours, or so.


and maybe add some viscous carb/sugar solution to that

yeah, kovacs and you share the same bird-like frame, so it makes sense that what is applicable to you would be applicable to him too.

He "says"...but definately doesnt. Another honest pro. lol

He had some videos where he was preparing his breakfast for example...so small portion for his size. Oh, he also claimed "clean". Makes sense.  ::)

1500 is nothing.. A large quarter pounder meal has like 1200 - 1300 calories alone. fuck a 250 g packet of chips is over a 1000 calories, you could get 2000 calories drinking a 3 litre milk 6 times a day..

fuck guzzle down some extra virgin olive oil

Noodles are crazy high in calories, so is cheese

It was my lack of appetite which made me convert to training closer to powerlifting in the past year and a half.  The way I saw it, I wasn't going to get any bigger on my calories so I figured if I could get stronger that would be at least something.

For some perspective, if you gave me half a thick sandwich and a glass of milk I would be good for about 18 hours.  Meaning that left alone, I would not crave food for about that time.  18 hours later I would be hungry enough to be seeking food.  But in the meantime I would be feeling fine basically, full of energy to be honest.  It's obviously genetic as my mom has the same appetite as do my siblings and Matt C. Jr.  I know I sound repetitive, but I really think I could make decent gains if I was naturally more hungry.  I can force-feed, but that was a lot easier for me to do in summers off when I was in university rather than now when my children are my priority.

I would really like to be maybe 180 in good condition with the same or greater strength than I have now.  I also think that's possible on 2,500 calories a day which is not really unrealistic.  If all else fails, I can pretty much guarantee I'll be deadlifting 500+ at around 165 soon enough.  My disproportion between strength and body weight annoys me at times but at least I have something.

Adding shakes - mixed with fruit to make them tolerable - really helped.  If anyone has any tips like that which are simple to implement, I am all ears.

I'm guessing he would have been a mountain of muscle to see in person, stomach and all.

Which leads me to this question:  Is it all worth it?  To try to get that big when 99.9% of the population either is disgusted or laughs behind your back.  Its not even an accomplishment when everyone knows you have to be juiced to the gills to get that big.

True. However, Walmart is one of the most powerful companies in the world and they cater to a lot of very odd people who get laughed at behind their back. Its so bad that someone made a whole website about it.
