A diet of 15.000 calories a day | Strongman Swimming Bonus

What do you have to eat to swim with a log tied to your body? Ross Edgley, the athlete in our Strongman Swimming series shows you what it takes to be a strongman swimmer.

Strongman Swimming documents Ross Edgley’s incredible attempt to swim 40km with a 100lb tree tied to him between the Caribbean islands of St Lucia and Martinique. Finally, after months of training and preparation Ross heads to the start line to take on his challenge which no one has ever before tried, let alone completed.

Consider how strong this guy is how and how intense a 20k swim is. And then think about the fact that he only drinks 1 can of redbull (and the little can). People drink multiple cans a day when the only exercise they've done is the walk to their car. Despite putting his body under intense strain he only has 1 can day (which is probably only due to the fact he's paid to).

Make a video of him ACTUALLY eating this in a day.

Water is your best friend not redbull.. But i guess water doesn't pay you to say that

[michaellombard]

Wow so many negative comments. Yes it does take most of the day to prepare and eat this much, but this guy goes all day from 530 on. Also it is possible to force that many calories. Ppl do it to gain weight dramatically, actors often do this for roles. Plus hes legit and knows what hes talking about regardless of a quick redbull promo.

And they say never swim with a full stomach

[Kaasbaas]

My friends, on here cannot imagine what kind of machine you need to be to swim 20k. This guy is an absolute savage. Saluted!! !!!

[mrebola]

I'm a former competitive swimmer who swam for my county in England . I'm also 6"5. There is no way on earth that this dude goes above 7, 000 a day. 15, 000 is impossible.

Forget the swimming, the real and underlying sport here would be, *"Strongman Crapping!"*
Guess we all know where he got his 100 lbs of log to drag behind him while he swam... Lashed to his leg with the TP he used to pass that monster!

“There’s no such thing as a bad food” -you heard it here first

[truckstreestoys]

Strongman Swimming or Strongman Sh*tting?

[nineofoto]

Not only could I not possibly eat that in a day... I couldn't afford that much food.

[ashleyw]

You better complete this swim Ross. .... cuz with all this prep you cannot fail😂😂😂😂😂

[coloradodirtbike]

damn 15k calories per day.. where's this guy get the money to afford that?

[DIYToPen]

Well, you could just eat 4 jars of mayonnaise. That'd be 15k easy

[trishaking]

There is no way in hell he eats all this daily

[JackChickenwing]

Strongman brian shaw eats 12000 a day and he is 6 8 190kg.

[matphillips]

The macros listed as snacks equal 5100 calories

[ImTheBlackJesus]

Yeah, no. Unless he's trying to get bigger than Eddie Hall, there's no way he's eating this. He would have to spend literally all day going between food prep and eating. Not a bad bulking diet outline though.

[ibefree]

he's not saying he eats everything on the table each day. there is way more calories on that table. pay attention people.yeesh

[tnguyen]

He must be ballin out at the grocery store lol
