    It’s both, not one or the other. Dude was trying to get 8,000+ calories a day and also huge amounts of protein at the same time

      it’s important that people understand you can’t mainline one type of intake when trying to both sustain the workouts/competition going on and preparing for a big meet. Not only does it get monotonous your body needs fats to refresh the digestive track and propel all that protein and carbs through the intestines. Trying that on a homogenous diet would be miserable.
