Basic Bodybuilding Diet Plan
A SOUND DIET PLAN, THAT'S EASY TO FOLLOW
by Jeff Moynihan
Most people think that by eating less they will lose weight. This is not true. By doing so, you will stagenate your metabolism . The correct way? Eat several small meals spaced throughout the day. This will put your metabolism on high speed and you will burn more fat.
You must use a small food portions of the size of your closed fist for both protein and carbohydrates in your meals. Or you can also count food grams which is easy to do. Fun fact: 100 grams of cooked beef will provide 35 grams of protein with 250 calories while 100 grams of lobster contains a mere 98 calories, and packs a protein punch of 19g.
To get lean, you must limit the amount of fat you take in per day for every meal you eat, you should consume no more than 6-7 grams of fat per meal.
You must eat the foods you like and enjoy, but are healthy, let's face it, if you are on a strict diet your not going to do it. Instead it is best to follow a diet with the foods you currently eat.
Here's some of the foods you can combine with low-fat condaments of your choice. Eat 5-6 servings or portions of some of these foods and you will lose weight and gain muscle.
