For those of you seeking to rip your body, cut up, shred it up, or simply put, pack on muscle, here are a few tips on how to eat for it.
Try this for six weeks, if you don't see results, leave a complaint on my blog.
Tip#1. Get at least one gram of protein per pound of bodyweight.
Tip#2. Once you determine your daily protein intake, divide it into at least five meals ( six would be even better) and space them evenly throughout the day.
Tip#3. When it comes to carbs, try eating no more than about 2/3 of the protein you are getting. For example, if you are taking in 150 grams of protein per day, try not ot go over 100 grams of protein from solid foods per day.
Tip#4. Make up the bulk of your carbs from the low glycemic category. This will include slow-cooking oatmeal, yams, apples, legumes, peaches, apricots, berries, grapes and pears, to name a few. Note that a lot of the summer fruits are low glycemic, so this is an ideal time to start paying attention to the glycemic issue and you'll have some great options to work with.
Tip#5. Don't eat any carbs with the last meal of the day-which is usually going to be within an hour or two of your bedtime. Yes, I said an hour or two before bed. By not eating for many hours before bedtime you do nothing to help your weight loss efforts. In fact, you are hurting your transformation. When you don't eat for long gaps of time your metabolism suppresses and slows down and that makes it much harder to lose any weight.
Tip#6. Don't be afraid to include some fats in your program, but choose them from the unsaturated category. Things like nuts and nut butters, avocados and olives and sesame and canola oils are all unsaturated.
That's it for the moment boys and girls. I hope this is much to your health, advantage and physical goals.
Like I said, if it does not work, give me a hollar.
Till next time,
