Kalle Beck – Kids cereal with protein shake as “milk”

James Townsend – Frosted Flakes. In/Out. Oreos. Krispy Kreme. Jack in The Box

Dr. Mike Israetel – Plain tart frozen yogurt with fruit and a whey protein shake!

Maya Winters– Post-workout, I am ravenous. On heavier training days I really like to feel well-fed following my session. I typically like to have grilled sweet potatoes (prepared in coconut oil), 3 eggs (or any fish), and a green vegetable.

Colin Burns – Ice cream or oreos and milk. Whole milk of course.

Blaine Sumner – 2 scoops of ground oatmeal, 2 scoops of whey, and 2 Gargantuan from Jimmy Johns.


Reid Worthington– Mediterranean Food

Jamie Hagiya – If I’m being healthy, Spicy Lemon Garlic 1/2 Chicken with rice and salad.

Greg Panora – I almost always eat steak, rice, a salad and bread from the same place.

Ewa Januszk– Average Day: Baked pita chicken pizza paired with a gigantic grilled chicken salad topped with buffalo hot sauce and ken’s light ranch. Amazing.

Above Average Day: Sushi! Great balance of protein, fats, and carbs to repair my muscles and keep me satisfied. Plus, raw is the best…For everything.
