There's nothing like just watching The Reem be The Reem. Why did he put all that meat on top of his bananas! T_T

22,000 calories a day, are you going to tell the guy he packed his trolley wrong?

22,000? Are you sure? Thats 11x the FDA recommended daily caloric intake... he would have to exert 11x the energy of the average person. LOL... I can barely burn 500 cals on a half hour jog, according to my treadmill.

Start watching these little vids part of The Reem documentery, there it shows how much he trains. His calculated resting metabolic rate is around 12,000 calories, so when you add 6 hours of training on top, it beceomes arroung 22,000.

I'll try and find the specific vid that atually has his neutritionist going in to what he does, but what i have put above is basically what the guys says.

...and yeah it is a rediculous ammount of calorific intake no argument there.

22,000 calories can't be true... I bet it's closer to 7-8,000...

Having eaten 6,000+ a day, I just can't see 22,000 as possible.

Well Michael Phelps was eating 12000 per day while training for the Olympics, and he weighs 80 lb less than Overeem.
