I reckon it's true. I remember Amir khan saying he eats abut 6000 cals a day. It's understandable given the intense training.

it isnt that hard, you have to think that he has nutritionists that will feed him lots of nutrient shakes full of energy and proteins, i do some gym training and i calorie count and trust me it wudnt suprise me if this is about the amount he intakes.

I remember reading on some news that Michael Phelps was eating 10000-12000 calories a day in his training.

That combination may not sound very healthy, and at a staggering 10,000 calories, would feed five average men for a day.
But the menu is reportedly all in a training day's eating for champion swimmer Michael Phelps, who won six gold medals in the 2004 Athens Olympics and is aiming for eight this time round.He burns more calories sitting at a desk than a lot of people burn walking.
The Olympic star recently said he consumes 12,000 calories per day, or 9,500 more than the FDA recommends for an active, young male.
Phelps has to keep his intake up in order to compensate for all the calories he burns during the 30-hours per week he spends in training.
As for Pac's 7000 a day, it's probably possible given the reports on the way he's training.Last edited by Smidgeon; 02-27-2010, 07:50 AM.

Granted Phelps was over 6feet tall and 200lbs, still 10-12k is damn huge. But then athletes like him wouldn't be accomplishing incredible feats if they were just as ordinary as the rest of us.

si what im saying is that it is possible, Manny trains extremely hard so more food gets processed faster..
