A healthy diet is an important part of any fitness program to obtain your fitness goals. Thus a few tips to obtain maximum benefits.
Eat more than you need ( 1.2 Grams per pound of body weight) Some evidence suggests that those of us who lift weights can benefit by eating around 0.73 grams of protein per pound ( or 1.6-1.7 grams/kilograms) of body weight per day. More than this, it is suggested, is a waste. Your goal should be to eat a lot more protein than you need for muscle-building (i.e., protein synthetic) purposes. This will encourage your body to promote maximum muscle gain, while harnessing your fat-burning drive train.
Carbohydrates:
Once you`ve figured out how much protein to eat...
Carbohydrate- sugars and starches- the most direct source of glucose (blood sugar) in the diet. Glucose is the most important fuel source in your body. Your body`s total supply of glucose determines whether you`re getting leaner or fatter with each passing moment.
Fat:
Forget about avoiding fat, it`s everywhere. Just try to eat the most healthy proteins and carbohydrates available. For proteins, I recommend fish, turkey breasts, chicken breast, roast beef,whole grains, beans, egg whites as well. For carbs, you can go for brown rice, fresh vegetables, fruit, and potatoes. Stay away from foods like cheese or butter. Also avoid using vegtable oil. Look for alternatives to avoid the bad fat, saturated fat. Healthy foods provide you with good fat, polyunsaturated fat, essential fatty acids .
