Protein, carbohydrates and fat
-
Your muscles don't grow in the gym, they grow during
recovery, while you rest and eat. One of the biggest bodybuilding
issues people don't know about is having a diet that is conducive to
building muscle.
A proper bodybuilding diet requires a different ratio of nutrients
than normal, everyday diets. A good rule of thumb is 40-40-20. this
means that 40 percent of your diet should consist of protein, 40 percent
of carbohydrates, and 20 percent of fat. Of course, every person will
have a different optimum ratio, so tweak this ratio from week to week
to find out what works for you. Do not neglect fruits and vegetables
while on this diet, as they contain nutrients vital to maintaining
energy levels.
Also, make a conscious effort to increase your water intake. Consume
at least 0.6 oz of water per pound of body weight every day. Growing
muscles require water, and not getting enough will hamper your gains.
