Coach Johnson sighed as he watched his football players practice. Their skinny bodies were struggling to keep up with the rest of the teams in the league. They were constantly getting tossed around the field when playing against a bigger team. Coach knew he had to do something if they wanted any chance of winning this year.
at the end of practice, coach rounded all the boys up and took a knee. "Y'all are clearly havin a tough time when playin against the other teams. I'm putting y'all on a new diet to try to enhance your performance." The players looked around in confusion. The dining halls on campus have given each of y'all an unlimited food plan." This got the players excited. "Now I want y'all to use this, alright? So I'm going to require y'all to eat at least 5,000 calories per day. No skipping meals. Any player that fails to meet these conditions will have to deal with a separate punishment." The players had big grins on their faces. They couldn't be more excited to eat as much as they wanted in the dining halls.
a month after coach started this experiment, he had each player weighed a week before their first game of the season. Matt G. - 155lbs to 169lbs
Jake R. - 143lbs to 160lbs
Steve B. - 151lbs to 164lbs
Jason K. - 149lbs to 170lbs
Mason L. - 154lbs to 171lbs
Dylan S. - 146lbs to 164lbs
Zach B. - 158lbs to 175lbs
Connor M. - 143lbs to 146lbs
coach was seriously impressed with how quickly his team was growing. All of them except Connor. He had only gained 3 pounds in a month? Coach knew he was going to have to give him the special punishment.
after the weigh ins, coach sent the rest of the team home and pulled Connor aside. "Hey Connor." Coach sighed. "I've noticed you only put on 3 pounds this month. What the hell happened?!" Connor's face got red. "I... umm..." he stuttered. Coach stopped him and told him to meet him at his house in an hour for his punishment.
Connor showed up to coach Johnson's house extremely nervous. Coach sat him down in the kitchen and put a big bowl of pasta in front of him. "You ain't leaving till you finish everything I serve you." Coach growled. Connor shuddered and started eating the pasta. When he was finished with that, coach placed a large cup full of some kind of smoothie. Connor chugged it and his stomach started to look like it was about to burst. When Connor had finished the drink, coach put the final meal in front of him. It was an entire cake. "But I'm already so... full." Connor moaned. "THATS TOO DAMN BAD!" Coach yelled. Connor reluctantly began eating the cake and about halfway through he started to cry. "WHAT THE HELL YOU CRYIN FOR BOY?! I GAVE YOU UNLIMITED FOOD AND ALL YOU COULD DO WAS GAIN THREE POUNDS?!" Connor cried his way through the rest of the cake until his stomach looked like it was about to explode. Coach sent Connor home and went to bed proud.
By the time the first game came around, Connor had gained a few more pounds because he was terrified of having to go back to coachs house. The boys did better than they ever have. They were becoming heavy enough to rival with the other teams. But it wasn't enough. They still lost because the lighter teammates were still getting thrown around. Coach knew he had to speed this process up.
at practices he banned the boys from most cardio and stocked the locker room with lots of snacks. Coach continued taking the lightest player to his house to stuff them full of fattening food. Once the boys found out how bad the punishment was, it motivated them even more to be bigger than their teammates. Their uniforms began growing tight around their expanding bellies and thighs. Before the second game, coach took their weights again:
Matt G. - 169lbs to 183lbs
Jake R. - 160lbs to 179lbs
Steve B. - 164lbs to 185lbs
