Caveira Posted November 26 Posted November 26 Read on the hawk board that he has to maintain a healthy 6000 calorie diet. Seems very hard to do. Anyone on here have any experience with that? I googled it and it seems harder than being a d1 wrestler (joking)….. how hard is it to exercise / train eating that much?

ionel Posted November 26 Posted November 26 I remember going down on the bus to St Louis for the Mizzu dual. After the win went to a restaurant. Sitting at table next to Lockhart. One of the other fans there challenge him to eat two plates of t-bone, bake potatoe etc. He did no problem. Remember another time went down, Mizzu won, the reservation was cancelled, we all went home hungry. 2 .

Sort of why I asked if anyone on the board had experience or had done it. Other than le Duke of course…… on a 8 hour sleep 16 hour awake schedule that’s every two and a half hours. I had a hard time practicing on a full stomach…. With that said there is at least a 2 hour practice in the afternoon and I bet cardio and or drilling once or twice a day. At least in d3 it was like that…. I imagine they train much harder in d1 too. that means your eating semi substantial meals on or near a lot of those practice/workout times. I would feel bloated …. Although I’m not used to eating that healthy that …. Not to mention academics is somewhere in there. Classes etc. 1

Anyone on here have any experience with that? I googled it and it seems harder than being a d1 wrestler (joking)….. how hard is it to exercise / train eating that much? Keuter is a classic heavy tweener, he has to push calories because being 215 is a liability at HWT. Tervel gave a great interview about this back in the day, he was a 220-30 tweener kind guy and really put on some mass after missing out on the olympics in '08. It immediately helped, but was quite onerous for him. Powerlifters, Strongmen etc also give major insight into what this is like. If you're REALLY putting in the time to be hwt competitive, eating is a full time job, and becomes pretty unpleasant. 1 1

maligned Posted November 26 Posted November 26 CrossFit Games GOAT, Mat Fraser, had physiological testing done that would show his 5'7", 190lb, frame needed 8000 to 9000 cals to support his two 2 to 2.5-hr intense training sessions per day. He's talked about 500 cals in super-concentrated high-cal juice/sports drinks immediately after each session as being essential for muscular recovery and calorie accumulation. Modern-day wrestlers are doing these same recovery carb cals after weigh-ins and between matches. If Keuter is doing it after lifting and after practice each day, he's down to 5k needed for meals, protein shakes, and snacks. 1
