Rex Ryan consumes 7,000 calories per day. wow. this needs to stop. i would be rather upset if our head coach died for any reason, let alone due to obesity.
"To put that 7,000 calories into perspective, here's one possible daily diet that would reach 7,000 calories a day." LOL I CALL FAKE FAKE FAKE
+1 He really needs to lose some lbs during the offseason. I want this guy to coach our team for years to come.
To put some incoherent perspective into this, Michael Phelps said that he consumes 8-10K calories a day when he is training. Consider how much energy Phelps expends with all that swimming in a training session versus what Rex might expend (by yelling all day?), and Rex weighs two Michael Phelps(es). Hey, I said the perspective was incoherent. I'm just saying...
I personally don't give a shit what he eats as long as we win football games. It's not as if he is playing on the field where he needs to be conditioned. Some of this is probably urban legend. Like the infamous Wade Boggs drinking 30 Beers on a cross country flight.
rex ryan makes peein your pants seem cool, jus like billy madison. im gona eat 7000 calories a day if it makes me a winner!
lol. This article is bogus, i'd like to see the original NYpost source. For one I was a personal trainer for years and am still very into fitness/nutrition. I can tell you that most really obese or fat people don't even eat alot in the end. They just gorge once or twice a day after awhile. Their total daily consumption of calories isn't always that high. The problem is they torture their metabolism after a certain point by not eating and then just eating all at once, usually a super heavy calorie meal composed of crap nutrition (trans fat, high fructose corn syrup). Combine that with little to no physical activity and you'll get fat if your genes suck it's possible to eat 7k cals a day, it's what some competitive bodybuilders (on a local and national level) have to do to put on size. and that's not mcdonalds, thats shit like chicken breasts and brown rice. If he was eating 7k cals a day he'd have to move the meeting room to the bathroom and also who thinks he'd ONLY eat at mcdonalds? give me a break. the guy could have the team chefs cook anything. he's gonna want a juicy ribeye than a cheap compressed meat burger more often than not.
Those were not his actual diets. Someone somehow came up with 7,000, word got to people on the Internet, and they put together ways to get to 7,000 calories (eating 35 Krispy Kremes, eating fast food all day, etc.).
I wonder if Rex ever farted on the sideline during games. It would clear the area. His dumps must be momumental.
I'm not going to critique what Rex eats and how much even though I've practice top nutrition and training for many decades .......but I will say that his diet is reflective of how he lives....... What I mean is that Rex seems to live life large.............tackling life and its challanges.....overdoing everything and being successful at it..... Sometime that obsessive A type personality lives life large like this..............
