Muscle Building Nutrition - Everything You Need To Know - Part III of III

Ok, we’re down to the final stretch of this muscle building nutrition guide!  In part 1 we went over the basics of what you should be eating and drinking, in part 2 we covered some additional supplementation, now in part 3 well….rather than talk about what we’re going to talk about, lets get right to it:

10.  Eat 4-6 Meals A Day

When it comes to muscle building nutrition, one of the most important things is that you constantly have nourishment coming into your system, this ensures that your body never has to break down itself to repair your muscle tissues.  Never go longer than 3-4 hours without eating.

11.  Eat A Small Pre-Workout Meal

Before you hit the gym, you need to make sure you have enough energy to get you through the intense workout.  While supplementing with BCAA’s will help some, you’re also going to want to take a small meal about 20-30 minutes beforehand.  You can try eating a banana or an apple, keep the calories low (200 or less).

12.  Take In Simple Carbs Post Workout!

Yup, you read that right, you need sugar post workout!  You need about 40-50g of carbs post workout to replenish your depleted muscle glycogen along with some protein to aid in muscle recovery.  One popular combo is dextrose mixed into a protein shake.  45 minutes to 1 hour following the post workout shake, have a large carbohydrate filled meal.

13.  Slow Your Carb Intake Down Near The End Of The Day

Near the end of the day you don’t want your belly to be full of carbs since if you go to sleep with a belly full of carbs, they’re likely to be turned into fat.  So in your last meal, keep the carbs a bit lower and the fat a bit higher.  One great bedtime snack is some cottage cheese mixed with all natural peanut butter.

Well, there are plenty of other points I can add to this muscle building nutrition guide but I’ll cut it off right there.  Again if you want to continue this with a quality weight training regimen, I’ve had a lot of success with Vince’s No Nonsense Muscle building guide.  With it and these techniques I’ve shared with you today, I’ve been able to add 31 solid pounds of muscle to my frame in a matter of 96 days.  So if you want to take this muscle building nutrition guide to the next level be sure to check it out: click here to continue…
