According to Tim Ferriss in his book the 4-Hour Body, if you want terrific sex you need to eat 4 whole eggs before bedtime 20 - 24 hours before the big event in order to get 800 mg of testosterone maximizing cholesterol.
Texas A&M (College Station) did a 12 week study and found that subjects who ate three whole eggs per day while weight training almost doubled their muscle mass gains and more than doubled their strength gains. This was compared to study participants who ate no more than one egg per day.
In the past, when protein supplements were either rare or terrible tasting, eggs were a staple in the bodybuilding diet.
In addition to the protein and cholesterol, eggs contain numerous beneficial nutrients. Choline, lutein, zeaxanthin, tryptophan, selenium, iodine, vitamin B2, molybdenum, vitamin B12, phosphorus, vitamin B5, and vitamin D.
