Go Mitch! Loving the channel man just discovered it can’t stop watching. Following you this weekend all the best! Cheers from BC.

[@nosoul4233]

You got a drs note for them shorts ? Love the videos by the way

[@Nick-ih5em]

🤣😂🤣😂 I was thinking the same thing.

[@davea6471]

My underwear are longer than that lol. 😂

[@burlhorse61]

i think its his merch

[@doctorphoton1]

It’s a more trendy look now.

[@lm-usmc]

If I had those quads, I'd wear a banana hammock. 😄

[@smuhhhh]

Over three days I anticipate having five lunches... I like this way of thinking

[@RyanCT89]

Gotta love the simplicity and practicality of your nutrition. Nothing groundbreaking or unrealistic. Just basic proven foods. Thanks for the insight big man. Your channel is killin it! As for my snack preference, a guilty pleasure snack would be the Little Debbie double decker oatmeal crème pies. Horrible for you but oh so tasty.

[@310Fire11]

I like your honest talk. Some people say you are arrogant, but you make realistic comments and back up what you say. Go Canada

[@high-captain-BaLrog]

Yes, his predictions are pretty accurate

[@lichin11]

The difference between watching what you do for food and competition prep. compared to other WSM people (such as the retired Brian Shaw) is just night and day. You are a prime example of the working man's version of WSM. Thank you!

[@Sean-fz1zg]

Brian has previously been coached by Stan Efferding as well also following the Vertical Diet so the same as Mitchell and has done very similar videos

[@lichin11]

True, but I'm mainly referring to Mitchell doing things mostly on his own. The way that he also humbly interacts with fans in the midst of competition is also refreshing. Brian is also good at this, but Mitchell takes this to another level. He backs up his LHBK mantra.@@Sean-fz1zg

[@kelseywhite3014]

They were literally coached by the same person for years Brian followed the vertical diet as well. Minus the junk. Which could’ve made all the difference because Mitch just won

[@Tundraoutdoors]

@@kelseywhite3014and he wrong the Arnolds as well

[@kelseywhite3014]

@@Tundraoutdoors yeah that’s what I’m referring to

[@TinyBolts1]

5:09 "I'm not a big flavour guy" ive definitely never thought id hear that from a human in my life

[@slee2695]

When you eat a lot sometimes too much flavoring can make you feel sick

[@mitchellhooperstrongman]

😂

[@BrandonFrederick27]

Good luck this weekend Moose! Cheering for you brother

[@Jack000222]

I’m a sucker for rice crispy’s! They are usually my pre workout snack.

[@alecangelo7443]

The difference between me and Mitchell is staggering and funny to see... Same age but I am skinny and my waistline hasn't changed since high school.. not much luck with facial hair too... I look like I'm in my late teens and early 20s...been watching him for motivation also information... Stay awesome Mitch

[@MaskedBreakdown]

$200usd is equivalent to $306aud .... for 3 days that is insane. That's how much i spend every 4 weeks on food....

[@schecterguitarsfan]

Besides being strong af, you are very well spoken on camera and quite entertaining. Looking forward to more content!

[@borislavivanov5331]

The most popular snacks in Bulgaria, I would say: 1. Roasted and salted sunflower/pumpkin seeds with the shell (we peel them with our mouth) 2. Corn on the cob with salt (beach snack) 3. Watermelon and white cheese (summer snack) 4. Regular old butter with spices and salt on bread 5. Some kind of sweet wafer from the store 6. Soletti - a salted tiny breadstick from the store 7. Carrots, apples, grapes or other fruits 8. Walnuts are a big grower here, so we have a lot of those My personal favourites are: walnuts, watermelon and cheese and bread with butter and spices

[@RobBrown1991]

You've explained the nutrition far better than some of the other strongmen.

[@jacobrogers55]

Was shocked you grabbed the Diet Coke and not Coke Zero. Best snack in Maine, Humpty Dumpty BBQ chips.

[@navoc2217]

I wonder if Mitch has ever looked at Fairlife milk. The macros seem bonkers compared to others.

[@Bleachedhambone]

Fairlife is the shitt. I drink between 6-12 cups daily. The micronutrient profile on itnis sick as well.

[@jd9119]

Mitchel, while you're in America, after the competition, find yourself good Mexican restaurant to get some quesabirria tacos. You'll love it. Think of it as like a taco version of a pot roast.

[@Arron-k8d]

Great insight. Shows it doesn’t have to be complicated to eat well.

[@calvinknight2407]

I don't if you have ever swung by South Africa Mitch, but Biltong is a staple snack. One I honestly could not live without.

[@xenuhz7893]

Wow love the content- been around fitness youtube since 2012 and the peak during powerlifting youtube during 2015/2016, ever since then the content has been stale, repeated and boring… but something about your energy, knowledge and production value thats really bringing back that golden era of fitness youtube keep up the phenom work

[@OliverFriberg]

In Sweden my go-to snack during shows are something called "gifflar" which is basically cinnamonbun rolls, either normal just cinnamon flavoured or vanilla. I see most of the competitors snacking on the same thing, go through 2-3 bags for what is usually like 3-5 hour shows. For me it depends if i bring prepped food to eat inbetween the larger breaks and the usual proteinshake + water/caffeinated drinks or just straight coffee. Most important thing is the gifflar tho, cant do a show without them.

[@leegibbons4700]

Wear some smaller shorts next time Mitch 👀 surprised the chicken skin handbag didn’t pop out 😂😂

[@sadiqulkadir7507]

JUST SEEN YOU DEMOLISH THE FRAME CARRY WHAT A GOAT

[@ChrisPBacon9]

Interesting about the white rice 🤔 my favorite snack are gansitos, it's a Mexican snack cake but available in America, at least here in the south 🤠

[@Zachmunzter]

My favorite snack is an apple cinnamon Quaker rice cake with peanut butter. The natural with honey Skippy kind if you can.

[@blacktrooper100]

Good luck! Im going to be sure to stop by the LHBK Booth tomorrow!

[@briansilver7255]

Favourite snack, caramel rice cakes with crunchy peanut butter spread on top. Delicious 🤤

[@jakewinder4371]

Let’s go Mitchell hooper!! You got this my man!! 🇨🇦🇨🇦

From Cincinnati with love! Best of luck Champ!!

[@susansouthern6704]

Drumsticks and ice cream cookies..yummy..Your total was more than I thought in the US compared to our Canadian prices.I thougbt ours would be higher.Behind you 💯 for the Arnold's...❤ from Canadian Grandma.

[@sirisaac8484]

Pistachio Ice Cream for Something Sweet, Ridged Lays Potato Chips for Salt, Clementines for Fruit, and Pistachios for some quick protein.

[@jonathannorris-green2379]

Wait, they have grocery stores in Canada. I thought everyone just went to Tim Horton's for food.

[@sleepy502]

What about provinces? In Manitoba we have honey dill sauce, great with chicken fingers! Also if you're in the States, Chex Mix muddy buddies are pretty great.

[@Up2Me-h2z]

Eating is by fare the biggest chore in strongman

[@andrewzach1921]

Hey Mitch, wishing you the best from the Homeland 🇨🇦🥌🍁

[@elizabethanderson3216]

I have to say as a person who has had bariatric surgery your oj and greek yogurt has come in handy when the thought of food makes me sick. Thank you for sharing it.❤

[@gnlgrim2]

Maynards wine gums. Nothing beats it. In game snack

[@ciarandoyle8953]

In the UK i would recommend munchies for the snack, congrats on the win today. I knew you would win this. Incredible athlete at the moment. Good luck keeping on the right track, hope you stay injury free. A lot more to come

[@philipsmith4849]

Mitchell Hooper. How much is my food bill? Brian shaw. Yes 😂😂😂

[@MojKanal-cz1iz]

Brian could eat Mitch.......and still be hungry 2 hours later

[@TechSasquatch]

I've been on a Banana Chip kick for snacks. sometimes with Peanut Butter to dip it in

[@bigmarradennis3412]

Walkers crisps for a snack in England...205 dollars seemed pretty reasonable...have a good weekend big man 👌

[@sebleonard8273]

You did the groceries, now you gotta do the cooking part hahaha I'm actually curious how you do, because I struggle to meet my overall cal intake and protein (i'm about 60-70% there for protein thanks to milk&egg protein shakes)

[@mitchellhooperstrongman]

I have a couple cooking videos on the channel if you search for them 💪💪

[@jasonkillsformomy]

His "cooking" is microwaving rice, cross contaminating meat and scratching his dog with the grill tong... Yuck!

[@NgArclite]

#1 snack for me is the Shrimp chips Calbee brand or BoyBawang Cornick garlic flavor chips. Toss em in with some rice and its perfect. Both these snacks can be found at almost any asian grocery store

[@johndtcg]

Favoruite snack is also reeces. My cold snack would probably be vanilla cheesecake, love the stuff. Favoruite gym/comp snack is peanut butter, chocolate spread and banana toasties (basically banana reeces toastie)

[@justgrindofficial7885]

Pickled onion Monster Munch fuelled our stone lifting trip of Scotland 💪

[@billybarebanya]

Good snack that doesn’t leave you feeling guilty is Harvest Snapes baked green pea snacks. Also Honeygrams cookies and putting peanut butter or a hazelnut spread on them. Saw you last April in Myrtle Beach at WSM. 💪 LHBK

[@ericpender2280]

Congratulations Moose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@christiana117]

You can never go wrong with the Greatest snack of all. The might liquorice pipe. But since liquorice isn't really a thing in North America for some odd reason. Pork scrachlings would just fine.

[@diceymaan]

Maybe we should send you some snacks from our own countries, so your upcoming reward snacks can be even a bit more exciting than usually :D

[@James-oh1wp]

Congrats MOOOOSE!!!! You totally dominated again!!!!

[@readmycomment3157]

Why avoid falvoured yoghurt then load up of diet coke, reeces and ice cream?

[@Minifliek]

As a dutchman the recommended snack has to be a Stroopwafel.

[@kristelbrok998]

Stroopwafels are genuinely the best, they're my guilty pleasure 🥹

[@chasegordon2120]

My man loves them shorts

[@Metalchic22]

My favorite snack was in front of you in the snack aisle. Smart food white cheddar popcorn.

[@user59371]

One of the only guys that can rock short-shorts in public and not get insulted for it

[@ford2010]

Birthday cake oatmeal 4 packets w cup of almond milk, add 2 scoops protein powder. My fav

[@Stretchwithseven]

The way he shuffles the cart in the beginning, like it is a box of Kleenex is impressive.

[@whattheshrek9046]

Mitch seems like a health conscious strongman ! Respect

[@floralletters6831]

I’m from Egypt so our national snack would be شامعدان (shamedan) it’s essentially a wafer snack but it is top tear!!! That and كتا كيتو (kata kito) another snack that is arguably better than KitKat

[@Jjunclejj]

Congrats for another win. I’ve been a fan for a while. Good luck in the future. I wonder if you’re going to retire once you win wsm, strongest man on earth and rogue this year.

[@maxsemple7898]

Food seems expensive in the states!

[@austintaylor497]

I am also Canadian. However, I spent 4 years in Kentucky and I always had American cereal stocked up. Guilty pleasure for sure 😂

[@bhan4534]

Favorite snack is from Korea. Chocopie, if you put it in the freezer and let it harden up, its even better that way for me at least.

[@ChristopherSalisburySalz]

Those shorts are getting awfully close to daisy duke territory!! 😁😁

[@Callum_Lifts]

Interesting to see what you eat Mitch, especially leading up to a comp. Good luck this weekend Mitch. I was way off with my guess 😂. It's more than I thought but also not surprised it was.

[@CalebSpears1]

Best healthy-ish ice cream substitute is Yasso brand yogurt “ice cream” bars. Good protein (I think 6g per 100 calories)

[@impolder]

i learned something new with the whole digestion thing with fatty meats and white rice, awesome

[@skinlab4239]

Move the eggs a little. They can look okay on top but cracked on the bottom and hardened. If the egg doesn't move freely, put the carton back.

[@lifebyathread8844]

Got to give him his props . Nice pulls

[@Boostocalypse]

Nice win today on the carry!

[@emmabechtle2601]

Cliff bars !!! Banana and Nutella, bagel and peanubutter and banana, heavenly hunks, tru fru frozen treats.

[@Saskatchetooner]

I love fig bars, white cheddar popcorn, soft serve vanilla ice cream, dates

[@staceygram5555]

My go-to snack is peanuts and raisins. Salty and sweet, crunchy and soft. Are there other snacks that taste better? Sure. But this is a pretty healthy option, and it counts as a meal because of all the protein in the peanuts.

[@keeanmorishita8457]

You could try switching to almonds instead of peanuts. Peanuts as legumes just don't have quite the same nutrients, but peanuts are very inexpensive. I get almonds in the bulk food section for $3.50 a pound. If you get the raw almonds they wont be coated in vegetable oil (most peanuts/nuts are coated in veggie oil) and they are fantastic when you toast the raw almonds in a pan

[@staceygram5555]

@@keeanmorishita8457 I do eat plenty of almonds too, just not as often as a snack as they aren't salted (typically eat them with my oatmeal or skyr). But sometimes I'll snack on almonds - and sometimes figs instead of raisins. Not sure if almonds are necessarily better than peanuts, though. The best is probably both.

[@daltonmason62]

Most comfortable shorts out there!

[@peteholman1252]

M&M bars a good get. My guess was $225 so just high and it’s nice seeing people have bags to use, here in Maine, we’re not allowed bags anymore 🙄 have to bring them. They’re apparently bad

[@yujitai6873]

I wonder how much that would cost in Canada? And they have plastic bags at checkout. Amazing!

[@Dawwizer]

I feel like mitch has some secret... the great Brian Shaw and thor are huge machines of food consumption, calories galore and up on everything from cold treatments and recovery approaches that we mere mortals could only dream of yet mitch is pushing the bar eating not much more than my level of food and his hard work ethos.. this dude is scary strong from what this side of the cam looks easy.. impressive 🙏

[@MisterBoy316]

Well Brian and Thor and Tom (and Eddie) at peak have about 50kg / 100lb on Mitch partly due to being so gigantic generally. Novikov and Martins and a few others are similar to Mitch and really those huge guys are the anomaly. Note though that Thor has gained something like 40-50kg back in his training... that's a LOT of food.

[@derekc8974]

My favorite snack is Kirkland salted extra fancy mixed nuts. 40oz for 12 USA dollars.

[@vladimirnortz404]

7× what I spend on food in three days. For those wondering, yes, I'm in the USA, and yes, it's possible to eat healthy for cheap.

[@user-strength10]

Welcome to America Mitch, i'm a Chicagoan from Illinois so a-ways from the Arnolds but best of luck on the competition (btw it's slightly funny your shopping at wally-world haha, but hey it does save both time and $$)

[@mitchellhooperstrongman]

💪💪

[@joshyrj]

I don’t get to eat it much anymore but my favorite snack has got to be ice cream, any flavor with salty/sweet

[@R1NR4N]

Best snack has to be the fig newton and beef jerky combo. Add an ice cold 2-liter of sparkling water if you want to be fancy like me 😎

[@joshyrj]

Amazing competition this weekend man!

[@idk9637]

23k a year on food alone holy shit i feel broke

[@Turley30]

I do the belvita soft baked oats and chocolate cookie with peanut butter spread over the flat side with a glass of milk. Usually helps with my sweet cravings and it's not the worst thing. Sometimes for some cheating calories, I do the specialty holiday Reese's (ex. Reese eggs, trees, pumpkins, hearts, ect) bc I like the peanut butter texture with less/thinner chocolate. I store them in the refrigerator to keep them cold. Call me odd, but for whatever reason, the chocolate tastes different cold, then at room temperature. It seems to more Rich / sweet warmer which I don't care for

[@WeTryMotorsports]

Tate's cookies! a man of culture. the chocolate chip are the best packaged cookies out there. can't go better than fresh out of the oven with crisp on outside, moist inside. also the price is exactly what i'd expect, if not a little higher... especially since the ingredients to cook were needed.

[@chasedavis7231]

def keeps me motivated on my diet while on deployment

[@EricTheGolfFiend]

That's more $$$ than I thought it would be. When you said it's prob not as much as you'd think, I pictured even less so it's a lot more than I thought I guess... Anyways, great job today.
