I’m a lazy guy that is part of one of those elite gyms (kind of by accident, but it is what it is). As a result I get to see what actual elite athletes eat by virtue of being around that and I can assure you that these elite sports champions are not eating any form of cereal at all as part of their daily regimen.

They all eat at the gym?

Elite athletes often eat pretty poorly. But they can get away with it because they work so hard.

I know a lot of D1 football players not only eat cereal for breakfast but also as a late night snack.

I was a borderline elite athlete at one point, training with actual elite athletes. Most of what we ate would be considered a "wildly unbalanced diet", and when we were competing it was just large volumes of calorie dense food, be it pasta, protein bars or milk.

That seems an odd claim. Do elite athletes eat all their meals at the gym?

Diet is not something you can scale linearly with calorie usage of your job
