Health checks
Being so muscular and consuming so many calories can cause health problems.
But Luke Stoltman previously explained: "We’re very fortunate that we work with a company who take our bloods.
“Being as big as we are it puts pressure on our hearts and so you’ve got to watch for thecholesterollevels as well and so we get that tested probably once a month."

Bon appetit
Ever wondered how much you need to eat to compete for the World's Strongest Man title?
The Stoltman brothers claim they consume around 10,000 calories per day and the average man needs just 2,500.
Giving some insight to their diet, they are said to eat over a kilo of meat a day.
Which come could from “10 eggs for breakfast" or "350g of mince", which would come with either pasta or potatoes or rice and accompanied with vegetables.
