Diet For Gaining Weight
If you are training correctly and you are trying to put on quality weight which is muscle then you need to make sure that you eat correctly. Eating loads of calories or junk foods is not going to put on the good quality weight that you are looking for.
You need to eat more often not more calories but just more often if you want to get the maximum benefit from your hard workouts. A recent study has proven that the best time to take good quality protein is before and after your workouts.
But the study also showed that eating small amounts of protein throughout the day had a better effect than eating one massive amount of protein once a day. This simply means that you have to plan your meals ahead of time and don't just eat because you are hungry.
If you want to get the best results from your hard workouts then you should eat a good quality lean protein at least 5 times a day. It should also be mixed with a complex carbohydrate and a small amount of fat about 5% to 8%. This is not as easy as it sounds and needs a bit of thought and preparation.
But the good news is that it quickly becomes a habit and you will soon wonder how you ever put on any muscle without eating that way. You will definitely get the results that you are looking for as far as picking up good quality muscle is concerned.
For example a tuna salad is something that will give you all the protein that you need plus it will be good complex carbohydrates. The same could be said for a turkey sandwich on good whole bread. But there are many different variations that you can experiment with.
It all depends on what your taste is as you can prepare foods that you will eat during your day before you leave home. This is probably the best way to avoid the impulse eating when you get hungry and grabbing a burger or a pie which is just junk food that will not help you gain good quality muscle.
Progressive resistance is the only way that you are ever going to put on good quality muscle so you need to make sure that you are training correctly in order to get the best use of your workouts. Together with eating correctly you will put on quality weight guaranteed.
