Olympic Legend - Michael Phelps

For those who watch the Olympic Games and especially for the swimming events, I'm sure you will know who is this.

Michael Phelps

6ft 4 in (1.93 m)

200 pounds (91 kg)


He is also one of the legend in Olympics. Winning 8 golds in all the events his participated in this Olympic Games. Not just that, 7 World Record and 1 Olympic Record were broke by him this time. So basically you can say he is holding the records for these events. 8 hours of training, 7 days a week in order to achieve this results! I can actually imagine how much effort he put in just for this OG. That's really amazing.

This combination of photos shows United States' Michael Phelps holding each of his eight gold medals after (top, left to right) the 400m individual medley, 4 x 100m freestyle relay, 200m freestyle, 200m butterfly, (bottom, left to right) 4 x 200m freestyle relay, 200m individual medley, 100m butterfly and the 4x100-meter medley relay at the Beijing 2008 Olympics.


Breakfast: Three fried-egg sandwiches loaded with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, fried onions and mayonnaise. Two cups of coffee. One five-egg omelet. One bowl of grits. Three slices of French toast topped with powdered sugar. Three chocolate-chip pancakes.
Lunch: One pound of enriched pasta. Two large ham and cheese sandwiches with mayo on white bread. Energy drinks packing 1,000 calories.
Dinner: One pound of pasta. An entire pizza. More energy drinks.

Anyways, this is the shocking part...his daily 12000 calories diet! Wow! Can you imagine how much food is that? It's like eating 31 packets of instant noodles a day. A person who eats that much a day will definitely get a stomach ache. What about Michael Phelps? He eat that much everyday and still able to maintain his body shape. Come to think about it, with 8 hours of vigorous exercise a day is enough to burn all his calories.


NOTE: Don't Try It At Home :)
