Clif Bar sponsored, Thor Hushovd, shared his Tour diet with Esquire magazine. Thor, who stands at 6 feet tall, has to eat 250 to 300 calories per hour while racing (the maximum that the body can absorb during exercise). His diet on the bike consists almost entirely of Clif bars, shot gels and shot blocks which helped him secure the yellow jersey in the early stages of this years Tour de France.
