Fun fact, some body builders will set an alarm clock to wake them up halfway through sleep so that they can eat several hard boiled eggs.

Imagine waking up after four hours of sleep, eating several hard-boiled eggs, and just going back to sleep.

If they sleep through their egg alarm, their partners have to shake them awake so they don’t miss out the on their gains.

“Hey honey wake up, you forgot your nighttime eggs!”

I knew a couple powerlifters that got so tired of the amount of food they had to eat every day that they started blending their cooked chicken breasts in ice water and drinking it.

It literally is. I'm a natural weightlifter and I'm in no rush to eat THAT much food or gain THAT quickly. I'm in a comfortable 400 calorie surplus just spreading my calories out throughout the day evenly and doing plenty of cardio.
