Dieting plan

Chris is extremely careful and pedantic regarding his diet plan, and usually eats the same six meals each day, months before he is about to compete, as he believes that this way he can notice exactly what his body needs. When he is not competing, he will not pay that much attention to his intake of calories and fats, but still won’t eat fast food or too many sweets. He usually aims at having seven meals per day, while trying to reach 6,000 calories mostly from potatoes, rice and chicken meat.
