Believe it or not, swimmer Ryan Lochte stomachs between 7,000 to 8,000 calories per day, according to Bon Appetit. He wakes up every morning to six eggs, spinach, tomatoes, ham, hash browns, oatmeal, fruit, and coffee—and that’s just breakfast. Pre-Rio, he focused on carbo-loading with dishes like spaghetti or fettuccine Alfredo, and kept his protein intake high with chicken, steak, and peanut butter bars. And no matter what, he spends every Friday night eating pizza and chicken wings, and drinking Mountain Dew, according to Bon Appetit. Hey, whatever works.
