I don't think the '6 small meals' thing actually increases your metabolism, gaining muscle and working hard is the only way to do that. It's more like it trains your body not to desperately hold on to and store every last morsel the way it would if you only ate every few days, smaller meals every couple hours help your body absorb and use the food opposed eating a huge meal every 6 hours and your body not being able to absorb that all at once so it gets stored as fat. If your body is always being fed like clockwork it doesn't store as much fat because it knows it'll be fed again soon, it'll produce insulin in sync with your schedule and adapt. Combine with hard exercise and you'll become a calorie burning engine, but it's the working out hard that increases your metabolism. If phelps stored those 12k calories he'd be a gigantic fatass
