Hi, my name is Alex Cameron, and im a competitive ametuer body builder. Ive just put together a great resource site on body building and lean muscle. I wish to give to you a insight into the top tips that I use to kick start the body building plan on the right foot.
The most important part of your routine is to eat properly!
You hear it time and time again. Its harder to get your diet right, than it is to turn up to the gym and pump out a 2 hour weight session. Im fully aware of this, and I know what its like because ive been in your position before. It wasnt until I changed that good advice into a working action plan, that I began to pile on noticeable weight and size.
Probably the most common error I hear, is that people assume that to get huge in muscular size, youve got to chew back tons of protien and little else. Watch out for this sort of advice!
In an ideal world, what you should be doing is waiting till the times of day when your metabolism siganls that its ready for the protien hit. Ideally, you want to ‘wake’ your body into readines by taking on morning foods that stimulate the muscle and dijestive system.
A great idea for breakfast, is to take in complex carbohydrates and fibre. Wholegrain cerels low in sugar, oats like porridge, and grain breads with a healthy spread is ideal. Fruits give vitamens and fibre is irreplacable for a healthy digestive system, and ensure the stomach is ready for the protien kick you will unleash on it later on.
Have a protien shake first thing but save the hard to digest protiens for after lunch, such as tuna or lamb/steak.
By morning tea time, or 10am, you should be ready for another hit. Now is when foods like pasta and brocolli or perhaps a tub of cottage cheese (250g) is what you should be having. If your having a desire for a sweet, a low sugar yoghurt is a good feed, with some berries and wholemeal bread.
