British bodybuilder Martyn Ford transformed himself into one of the freakiest mass monsters in the world. Having started relatively frail for his size, he spent years working hard in the training room to achieve his present physique. In a recent interview with Escape Fitness, Ford revealed the food sources he likes to consume when on a diet and when hes eating 10,000 calories to bulk up at 360 pounds.
Social media fitness influencer Martyn Ford grew up playing professional cricket before finding his passion for bodybuilding. He rose to prominence for his humongous physique with unreal muscle mass, size, and overall muscularity. Standing at 6 ft 8 inches, Fords extreme package amassed him a huge following of 4.5 million on Instagram and earned him the opportunity to get on the silver screen. He made headlines for his antagonistic role in his acting debut in the film Boyka: Undisputed (2016) alongside fellow Brit Scott Adkins.
Ford sparked a heated rivalry with internet sensation Sajad Gharibi, popularly known as the Iranian Hulk over the last two years. The pair traded verbal jabs online and were scheduled to settle their differences in a boxing match in April 2022. During the build-up to the outing, Ford shoved Gharibi to the ground with ease after the latter failed his attempt in a face-off. Gharibi later opened up about his mental health challenges that stemmed from the fact he got disowned by his family due to the incident.
Given Gharibis admission to suicidal thoughts, the organizers pulled the plug on the bout and Ford added the discrepancy between Gharibis online image and real-life factored in as well. Nevertheless, Ford pulled off an incredible body transformation, losing nearly 60 pounds in preparations for the scrapped contest.
Martyn Ford continued to train boxing and left the fans stunned with an insanely jacked physique update following the cancelation. Despite calls from Gharibi to proceed with the match, Ford decided against it as he was concerned about his opponents mental health in case the outcome would not be in his favor.
The Nightmare began training in MMA in hopes of competing under the Polish MMA promotion KSW in May 2022. He showed off his giant physique in a workout update a month later. He was even eyeing a boxing fight with legendary strongman Hafthor Bjornsson but faced issues in making the showdown come to fruition.
In a recent YouTube video, Martyn Ford revealed his preferred food sources to fit into his diet, which can go up to 10,000 calories to add muscle to his 360-pound frame.
My appetite is ridiculous and Im very carb-sensitive so like sweet potato, oats, rice. I could do three or four thousand calories in a meal easily if I am not careful, said Ford.
A typical not training for anything day would be oats and eggs for breakfast, rice cakes, cottage cheese, fruit, Greek yogurt snacks, nuts, snacks, and then sweet potato, salmon, steak, rice, potato chips but made myslef in the oven. Just generally that kind of food is where Im staying at. About eight meals a day easily. When Im growing I can easily go up to eight meals a day, Ill wake up starving and eat twice in the night.
Im still doing 4,500 calories dieting so its nice because its normal whereas when Im bulking, if I want to put some size on, Im up to eight, nine, 10,000 calories, which is hard work when its good food.
Ford listed the staple supplements he likes to utilize in addition to whole food.
The big ones that Id always lean on to will be glutamines, creatines, aminos, if Im bulking Ill have a carb drink intra, post, and then isolate whey. But again, only after workout I would never replace food if I dont need to with a protein shake. [Greens supplement] as well.
Martyn Ford opened up on using steroids to achieve fitness goals in July 2022. While he believed there were benefits that can be derived from taking gear, he argued there was a major downside as well if one used substances from the black market and without proper research. Then, he teamed up with former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping for a brutal chest workout last September.
Ford showed off his monstrous package while crushing an intense training session last month.
Its fascinating to get insight into the diet and supplementation of the man who boasts one of the craziest physiques in the world. His latest offering could benefit others who may be on a similar path to get some gains.
