Building muscle is a complex process!
In the process of building muscle, not only appropriate exercise is required, but reasonable diet and planning are also very important.
How to eat correctly?
First meal:
With no food available overnight, the body continues to use calories, especially carbohydrates, to provide energy for the first few hours of work.
Complex carbohydrates burn very slowly and can provide long-lasting energy, making them the best choice. Also consume protein to maintain a constant flow of amino acids in the blood, which helps prevent muscle catabolism. This meal should provide approximately 50 grams of protein.
Second meal:
About 3 hours after breakfast it is time to eat again. This is one of the smaller meals of the day, just needed to fuel the body for the rest of the morning and maintain a constant flow of amino acids in the blood.
Amino acids come from protein. For protein in this meal, you can choose chicken breast or high-protein powder. You can also consume some carbohydrates, such as fruits. Fruit is also a good source of fiber, which is often lacking in most bodybuilders' diets.
