TRYING TO EAT MY OLD WEIGHT GAIN DIET IN ONE SITTING | C.O.B. Ep.156

[@Beardmeatsfood]

Evening folks! Hope you’re having a great week! Tonight’s video is a little different, but I was brainstorming the other day and thought it would be a bit of a laugh to show you all how I used to eat, before I started the whole competitive eating/food challenge journey. I also figured it would be a slightly more insightful follow-up to Tuesday’s bonus video, given that it might give you some idea how I might eat on a day to day basis, if I ever retired ;) As always, it means a lot to me that you’ve stopped by to watch and I hope to see you for the next one this Sunday at 7pm BST! Oh and sorry about the echo; I accidentally moved the boom mic too far from my mouth. Also, since I know this video might elicit some questions, I’ve done a small FAQ section in the description. I’d also just say; bear in mind that this is all supposed to be a bit of fun. The pictures included are, though roughly speaking from around the same point in time I mention, not perfectly in sync with the kind of caloric intake I was on at that point in time, although they’re the closest I have (I don’t take many) and I would estimate being around 170lb in those photos or thereabouts. Eating 3900 calories a day is not by any means something I would recommend for the average person. Again, bear in mind that this was for a reasonably short period of time to support a specific training block, at a point in time where my activity level was incredibly high. Hope that makes sense and have a great weekend!

@@wingchunman100 didn't say he was gaining too much fat bud,just saying he didn't have to eat that much,he could have eaten less, no need for anger bro,i have at least somewhat of an idea on what I'm saying and i wasn't insisting i was intelligent just because i watch greg

[@wingchunman100]

lè squidyTM the point is, he did have to eat that much, because if he didn’t have to eat that much then he would be putting on fat. I’m not angry, just don’t get why people think they can say things like “other than all the unnecessary calories” when they were clearly necessary, it just shows that you have no idea what you’re talking about and therefore shouldn’t make such statements. As you said you “started doing bodybuilding”. There’s a lot to this bodybuilding stuff so maybe learn a little before making silly comments, that’s all🤷🏼‍♂️
