Caloric intake of powerlifters vs. bodybuilders diet

[MAXX]

That's what puzzles me. No bodybuilder his size consumes even half as many calories in the off-season as he or any other strength athlete, despite the higher training volume and cardio.

Probably in a high surplus. And only for shorter periods he eats like that. He is also 340lbs.

Also his workouts are long as I understand and he also works a job at a factory. So high activity level as well.

Andrew Smaev eats 15000+ calories in his bulking phase.

All depends on your body mass. Most people would get fat af on 1/3 of that

says he does, has anyone seen him?
I say him struggle eating one fucking meal
