CTNow.com has an interview at this link with Big E, who was promoting this Monday’s post-Royal Rumble RAW at the XL Center in Hartford, CT. During the interview, Big E talked about traveling with Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods and his diet on the road.
“We find ourselves stopping at Denny’s a lot,” Big E said. “They’ve got a new set of Skillets that really caught our eye, so that’s something to look forward to. For me, it’s a matter of getting as much protein as possible. I try to get about 300 grams of protein a day, and I carry probably about a half-pound of whey protein on the road to supplement in-between meals. For the most part, I try to keep my carbs down and eat a decent amount of protein. On the road, you get used to places that are open after shows at 1 or 2 in the morning, and then trying to eat as clean as possible. I will admit to not having the cleanest of diets, and that’s something I’m working on. Being a thicker human being, protein’s essential [meaning food like] a decent amount of burgers with no bun. Last week, I went to Waffle House and got 14 scrambled eggs. That’s eating on the road for you.”
