About Bartley Weaver IV

World's First Pro Bodybuilder
& Pro Eater

Bartley Weaver isn't just an eater — he's aforce of nature. Known as thefirst professional eater and professional bodybuilder in the world, Bartley brings the perfect mix of muscle, mindset, and madness to every bite.

After years on the bodybuilding stage, Bartley's competitive spirit evolved into a whole new arena — the world of extreme eating. From dominating food challenges across America to founding the Extreme Eating Championships (EEC), Bartley has turned what started as a wild passion into a movement.

Driven by the same discipline that earned him pro bodybuilding status, Bartley treats every competition like a performance — where precision meets pure chaos. Whether he's devouring donuts at the Olympia, crushing colossal burgers on YouTube, or training athletes through DreamWeaverFit, he brings humor, heart, and high-octane energy to everything he does.

When he's not breaking records or breaking bread, Bartley is fueling his mission through TFUEL, his performance supplement brand built to help everyday athletes perform like pros — without the crash, bloat, or nonsense.

This isn't just about eating more — it's about living larger.

Welcome to Bartley's world — where passion meets plate and every bite is earned.
