One minute he doesn't train enough.
Now he eats to much Candy (.... hate that word - candy - just sounds like a pathetic wimpy word to me - candy).
But, if he was eating so much Candy, not training enough or corrcetly as you have asserted would he not look like KRjr after he ate the pies?
Why will be interesting and is being discussed elsewhere is how the constant leaks from Ducati will effect the relationship as it is clear now (still) that Ducati in order to be up top need one rider and they may have pissed that rider off. Whilst Stoner may well return, one expects any relationship to be very frosty so maybe an ice-cream sponsor would be useful.
There yah go, thought I would throw something in for you - no, how about you go and apply your keen eye for physical development opportunities to the womens volletball team.

I find no internal consistency in the stuff about stoner, just as with all the lorenzo stuff much of which proved to be fictional to the annoyance at present of many. The attribution of the candy/diet comment in motogp matters was extremely vague as such things usually are but in general terms you would think any motogp rider would need to have a healthy diet as well as appropriate fitness training to last the distance in a race weekend, particularly at the hotter locations.
Opposed to this is as you and I have said stoner is reputedly a fitness fanatic; his performance in 2007 which involved extreme physicality in his riding of the ducati, the ability to ride the thing on the limit right to the end at near lap-record pace in many dominant wins, and basically no significant riding error in a race for a whole season would seem consistent with both a high level of fitness and unusual strength for his size. There did not seem to be any problem with his strength or endurance this year either up until after the mugello race, and the possibility that what has been said by him and others with very clear attribution (ie that he contracted an illness, possibly viral, in the week leading up to the next race) is actually true surely must exist, and in such circumstances physical activity and in particular heavy training is problematic.
I think if casey's head has been "done in", which I would have thought the mugello race provided evidence against, it has been by his media coverage and not by rossi. Whatever casey's media skills or lack thereof and although it is not valentino's fault I suspect that beating him in races on any sort of repetitive basis and certainly beating him for a world championship is not consistent with widespread popularity for anyone.
