2016 Olympics Broken Down in Bagels

Everyone’s been talking about the 2016 Olympics in Rio. And, Maryland has certainly earned a bit of bragging rights as Maryland athletes have cumulatively earned the most gold medals out of all U.S. Olympians. In fact, if Maryland were its own country, it would rank second in total gold medals won! #TeamMD

And, there’s no doubt you heard tales about Baltimore native Michael Phelp’s voracious diet, made famous as he fueled up for the 2008 Bejing Olympics. There is no real official confirmation or recommendation that athletes should follow his 12,000 calories a day diet. But, you may be wondering just how many calories does an elite athlete eat every day and how many bagels that is… oh you weren’t? Well, we broke down the 2016 Olympian diets in bagels. Just because.

How many bagels does it take to power an Olympian?

Wrestling might only need a measly 6 bagels a day (still quite a bit!) to Swimming with 48 bagels! Can you image How does your daily bagel intake compare?  You don’t have to be an Olympian to benefit from fueling up on Naval Bagels. We have the perfect bagel to power your day. Order one today for breakfast and lunch, and you are already earning a gold medal in our book!
