In order to have proper Muscle Growth, you need to eat foods that are high in protein. Without protein, you will never build muscles. Try to eat foods that are high in protein but low in fats. Some of these foods include…

• Lean Beef
• Fish
• Lean Chicken
• Lean Turkey
• Eggs
• Cottage Cheese

The reason you want to eat a variety of different foods that are high in protein is because your body needs to absorb amino acids. Amino acids are what makes up protein and protein is what makes up muscle.

Another type of nutrition that is very important to the growth of muscles are carbohydrates. This is where you get your energy to workout. If you run low in energy during a workout, you will not be able to do the maximum amounts of reps and you will not get the most muscle build in your workout.

Carbohydrates can be stored in the body for reserved energy, but protein can not be stored in the body and has to be used right away. Eating proteins with every meal will give you insurance that you will receive protein whenever your body is in need of them. Eating six small meals a day will help keep your protein levels steady and balanced.

Proteins that comes from plants are of less quality then the ones that come from animals. Milk is another great source of protein.

In conclusion…

• Try to eat lean meats and fish.
• Carbohydrates are great for giving you energy for your workout.
• Protein shakes are great for right after workouts.

Since you are taking in a lot of protein throughout the day, you need to eat the right amount of fiber to keep the food moving through your system and prevents the build up of toxins.
