Few, if any professional athletes put their bodies through the wringer like NFL players.
More than anything else, offensive linemen depend on body mass and strength to do their jobs. This requires unnatural eating habits and intense caloric intake. For Thomas, that meant consuming 6,000-7,000 calories a day.that his typical breakfast previously consisted of"a big bowl of oatmeal, a big thing of Greek yogurt with berries, granola, flax seed, honey, and then maybe 8-10 scrambled eggs and 4-5 pieces of bacon.
That was all before a pre-lunch snack that might be a"high-calorie smoothie" before two more massive meals and ending his day with a bedtime snack of"a sleeve of Girl Scout cookies and a bowl of ice cream, or sometimes a freezer pizza in the oven. ... and a big casein protein shake before bed with some milk."
Okung didn't go into those kinds of details with his post. But it's safe to assume that he was on a similar calorie-dense diet that he's since abandoned because he doesn't have to block Von Miller anymore.
