It's easy and cheap so if it's a simple case of adding calories, sure. I'd imagine they'd aim to be a bit healthier these days but still, if you're not eating enough your performance will suffer and if you're really not eating enough you can get into the hormone fucking territory and end up totally fucked.
I’ve no idea if this is apocryphal or not, but I used to know a guy who went on to win many caps for the Irish rugby team. At the start of his career (when I knew him) he was told that his performance metrics were top notch but that he was too lean and would thus be injury prone. His coaches therefore put him on a diet of McDonald’s and kebabs to add an extra layer of fatty body armour.
