40 days?!? That's freaking incredible.

I have a hard enough time when I fast for one day. Especially right around 2pm. Once I get past 2-3pm the rest of the day isn't so bad.

Not surprised most retired OL either lose a bunch of weight or they get really fat..

Alan Faneca runs marathons now or you can be Russell Maryland who is like 5 bills.

I can't imagine not eating any food for 40 days being healthy for you.

Some of the guys on CP have tried it. I believe Scho was one of them. He says he’s done extended fasts quite a few times and swears by them.

Personally, I wouldn’t, but whatever. I’d you've got a ton of excess fat to fuel your body and keep replenishing your fluids and electrolytes, you probably won’t die lol

My wife and I tried to do that juice fasting where you get a juicer and do fruits/vegetables...after 5 days my stomach felt like it was eating itself.

I haven't snacked since lunch, and my belly ain't happy.

I haven't fasted in awhile. Maybe after this beer I'll give it another shot

I pretty much intermittent fast every day but 40 days would be rough. Heck 1 day is tough.

No matter how effective the crash diet part may be, I'd stop short of saying it works great if you're needing to do it over and over again.

They would almost have to lose weight considering that it takes about 10k calories a day to stay a big and strong as they are.

Hell I’d bet someone like JJ Watt has lost a decent amount of weight simply from not doing that and going down to 2-3k calories a day as a retired player.

I started fasting today right after I ate a Publix cuban and pasta salad and will continue until I eat a ribeye in about an hour

I’ll fast tomorrow… unless I get hungry..

I can't imagine peeing from my butt on a normal basis.
