    20 egg whites is only something like 400 calories (100g protein), a totally reasonable amount of protein to get if you were weightlifting and building muscles. little weird to do it all at once though

      That probably had more to do with our working conditions tbh. We would work 12-16 hour shifts, frequently flipping between days and overnights due to the heat.

      Eating one big meal after working was all you could do sometimes. You’re basically in survival mode. We would also usually split a case of water per day due to sweating so much and staying hydrated.

      He would eat like 20 egg whites as well as some other low carb breakfast at Denny’s. Then go work out. Dude was a beast lol.
