In a new video, Bob Shoudt discusses “How I trained my body to eat more food than anyone”. He has the following commentary
I know that this is not my typical content but it does provide a lot of background info. I get asked all the time about how I can do the things I do in my videos. The truth is all this past training makes it very easy for me to attempt any restaurant challenge. Not that I win them all, but if I know what I am getting into then I usually fair well. That said, I don’t feel that anyone should attempt to do what is in this video. It is just not worth it and I can almost guarantee that you will not make any money in competitive eating. There are probably more continents on Earth than there are people making any real $ in competitive eating.
