The total calorie intake is greater than the total calorie consumption.
To get enough calories, you need to find out the total calories your body needs
every day, and then add 5% to 20% more calories from that. You can gradually
increase your calorie intake . We recommend that people who want to gain muscle
take total calories to 5-6 meals. Those who are busy or can't eat much food can
use protein powder drinks with fruit as a meal. This can also keep the body in a
state of assimilation, i.e. a positive balance of nitrogen in the body's muscle
proteins, so that assimilation can be maintained continuously. Otherwise, the
whole body's muscles will be in the process of decomposition . Five to six meals
a day will also provide a steady protein supplement to your muscles, speeding up
muscle repair and recovery.
Adequate protein.
Muscle growth requires adequate intake of proteins. In order to meet muscle
growth, protein intake needs to reach 1.6-2 g/kg/day. If ordinary fitness people
want to increase muscle and control fat growth effectively, they can choose
foods with low or medium fat in their daily diet, such as skinned chicken, lean
beef, fish and other meat, low-fat milk and chicken protein. On the other hand,
good protein powder can effectively help to increase muscle without increasing
fat.
Adequate carbohydrates.
It is inadequate to eat only complex carbohydrates or low-sugar carbohydrates
during the muscle-building phase. Because complex carbohydrates such as brown
rice, sweet potatoes, cereals, etc. can make your stomach feel overfull and not
get enough calories. During muscle building, we can eat more simple or
high-sugar carbohydrates, such as white rice, potatoes, bread and so on, so that
you can easily meet the calories you need, and your stomach will not suffer too
much.
Appropriate amount of fat
Do not completely reject fat during muscle building. First, we need to
distinguish between good and bad fats: we need to avoid eating saturated and
trans fats. Good fat keeps testosterone levels in the body and promotes muscle
growth, so your muscle-building effect will be more obvious. Recommended Food
Sources: Peanuts, almonds, avocados, olive oil and other non-animal fats.
