Nutrition For Muscle Building
Proper nutrition is vital for growth. It plays a very important role in the body's growth and recovery processes. To extract as much as possible from your meals they should be well balanced and well spaced throughout the day. In this way the body is better able to absorb the nutrients and there is less stress on the digestive system.
Protein - Vital for Growth - contrary to some expert opinions bodybuilders/weightlifters need lots of protein. It plays a crucial role in the recovery and building of muscle tissue. It is absolutely required by the body to repair and build new muscle tissue.
Physiological stresses caused by intense weight training leads to nitrogen loss. To grow and get stronger the body must be in a positive nitrogen balance. This means eating protein every 2 - 3 hours. For optimum growth you should be ingesting approximately 30-50 grams of protein, 4 -7 times a day. This is dependant upon your present weight and the quality of the protein you are ingesting.
Good sources of protein are lean red meat, whole eggs, dairy products, fish and chicken. A high quality protein supplement can also be used, such as whey protein or a good milk and egg mix. High quality protein supplements are absorbed well by the body and do not take as long to digest.
