Goldberg says he's eating 15k cals a day in prep..
I have been training with the biggest, baddest men on the planet. I’m not messing around; it’s not like I came around the idea of saying, hey, I’m going to be 49 and let me get off my couch after 12 years of eating sweets and getting into the ring and facing this monster of a guy, I will be perfectly honest with you, if people don’t think I know how to prepare for athletic competition at the highest level then they have something wrong with them. I take this crap very seriously, and it’s the world of professional wrestling and I take everything with a grain of salt and try to be the best that I can be at what I do, and I am doing this in front of all those people in my underwear, where the last time they saw me I was 290 and was blowing fire under my ears. I was able to press a 290lb Brock Lesnar over my head and my goal is to do the same thing when I walk in there. I won’t be 280lb when I used to be, but what I bring to the ring will be a different package than before, but I will be the same guy so, you know, I’m doing a lot of cross training and footwork, a lot of boxing work. I haven’t been in the ring in a while, so out of those 12 years it’s very important to reacquaint yourself with, but I’m going into one match. I’m not going to get into the ring for 20 days straight and try to familiarize myself again with the ropes. Hopefully, the only thing that will need to be hit is my fist in Brock’s face in the match. The reality is I will be taking some suplexes during this thing, and it is what it is. I may be old, but I know what I am getting myself into. It’s not like I am not training three times a day, three days a week, and twice a day the other days. I am eating 15,000 calories a day; I am trying to gain weight, but you know, I’m Goldberg, I have a standard I have to uphold myself to. I am greatly appreciate that anyone would think I am good at anything; I just try to push myself as hard as I do and hopefully people will come away being happy with it, but the only people I care if they are happy about it is my wife and son and am able to share something with him as a gift. If I can come in and be a superhero with them in that spotlight for a short period of time then that is something I value equally as giving my family that experience so, like I said, in the ring, there aren’t many superheros in the ring. There are a lot of pieces of crap that unfortunately kids look up to, they make missteps. There needs to be a superhero again, the Rock’s, the Goldberg’s, they were around back in the day but they’re not in the forefront anymore.”
