Rip's Diet

[Tom Bryant]

So Rip,

You are the top celeb around here, and someone asked what Jordan eats, so what did you eat on a daily basis when you were competing? Be specific.

[Mark Rippetoe]

Nah, no time. I ate a lot.

[Blackjack]

I heard the first day he trained he ate a baby calf. Then, each day after, he ate a slightly larger calf.

[rhett]

Ok, how about you current work sets?

[Mark Rippetoe]

Why? I am old, and in maintenance mode.

[Kyle Schuant]

I know he didn't drink a lot of that hoppy beer John gave him in February. I thought he'd down the whole case. Probably needs to be at least forty proof.

Of his knowledge a man should never boast,
Rather be sparing of speech
When to his house a wiser comes:
Seldom do those who are silent Make mistakes;
mother wit Is ever a faithful friend,

The Hávamál

[madmaxaus]

Rip, while we're at it, why don't you tell us which aftershave you use?

[Lamneth]

Nah, no time. I ate a lot.

Plus, you already told people. "Mean Ol' Mr. Gravity", page 166.

Of his knowledge a man should never boast,

The Hávamál

I am surprised, wal.
