The Lighter Side: Michael Phelps 12,000 Cal Diet Tested

I had to post this clip about the Michael Phelps 12,000 cal diet. The experiment was done on a national level and a little laughter is good for recovery after a hard swim workout.

I remember reading somewhere that his daily calorie intake was more like 10,000. During the 2008 Olympics I saw a short bio on TV that showed him at Taco Bell with his tray of food. I could not believe how much stuff he had on that tray. I would venture to guess there was easily 3000+ calories worth of food, and that was only one meal! :dinner:
