A strategic plan is absolutely vital when planning a Muscle Building transformation.You must develop support program that will allow you make the maximum gains in the shortest time possible. This will mean taking time to understand your diet schedule and ensuring it is on point for you Muscle Building.
It does not matter how hard you train and what weights you lift, if your diet cannot support your muscle development you will fail. Your body needs sufiicient nutrients to grow and if they are not available you will simply hinder your progress..
An appropriate eating plan is critical to the success of your muscle building and so some points of consideration are listed as follows.
1. Eat throughout the day
This is one piece of advice that always manages to confuse novice body builders as they seem to think that this is a green light to overeat and overindulge in junk food. No. What this means is this that rather than eating three large meals a day, ensure that you more frequently during the day with smaller meals. Eating consistently throughout the space of the day will ensure that your metabolism is always kept at a stable rate rather than allowing it to drop too low. Keeping your energy levels high will also eliminate the temptation to binge on sugary treats and foods which have a high fat content, which are the kryptonite to your muscle building progress.
2. Eat before you workout
Would you try and drive your car without adding any fuel to it? Would you try and cut a tree with a chainsaw without actually revving the motor of the saw? Do you cook food without using heat? Why then would you try and workout and put your body through a high and intense level of exertion without having something in your stomach? Before you workout, make sure that you have a suitable meal. The best meal to have prior to the muscle building training session is one which has a high level of complex carbohydrates as well as protein.
Complex carbohydrates are slow releasing forms of energy and so will help replenish your flagging energy levels throughout the course and entire duration of the workout. Protein is used by the body for the creation and repair of new and damaged tissue respectively and given that your muscles will become scarred during the course of the muscle building regime, the protein is essential to begin the growth process.
3. Replenish you body immediately after you workout
By consuming a large protion of protein immediatlet after your workout you are getting your recovery off to the best possible start. I highly recommend a good Whey Protein shake or even a tin of Tuna Fish. Your body can assimilate around 20 grams of protein with each meal, always aim to consume that within 30 minutes of completing your workout to ensure you kick start your muscle recovery.
