If you’re looking to gain lean muscle, a lot of consideration needs to go into what kind of diet you’re going to be using.  In fact, most people would do well to focus more on their diets than their actual training since so many people mess this part up.  To make sure you don’t, here are a few tips for you:

1.    Spice Up Your Foods

If you want to gain lean muscle, you’re going to have to get used to eating tons of healthy food all the time and little to no junk food.  Considering this, you’re going to want to make your healthy food as enjoyable as possible.  One way to do this is by picking up a lot of different spices to sprinkle onto your chicken, yams, rice or beans.  I like to use Mrs. Dash.  You can also try using Tabasco sauce to make things more interesting.

2.     Stay Away From Alcohol

Stay away from it like the plague!  Nothing KILLS your gains as much as alcohol.  When you drink, not only do you take in useless carbs, but your liver has to spend all it’s time detoxifying your body of this toxin rather than functioning as it’s supposed to under normal conditions.  Don’t poison your body if you’re looking to build yourself up.

3.     Bulk Slowly

If you want to gain lean muscle and lean muscle only, make sure you do a slow and clean bulk to minimize any fat gain.  Fat gain is pretty much inevitable with a caloric surplus, but you can limit it by going up in calories by eating only 500 calories above maintenance.   Thereafter, if progress stalls, only up calories by 250 each successive week.

There are a few cases though where you can make huge lean muscle gains in a short period of time.  To find out how you can gain a solid 10 pounds of lean muscle in a matter of 2 weeks click on this link.
