Diet For Beginner Bodybuilder:

             It’s time to review your nutritional intake and cut back all foods that cause you to gain fat and brings no good to you. Fast food, soda drink- forget about them if you really want to get big. You need protein to feed your muscle and carbohydrates for energy. Split food intake into 5-6 meals per day with a source of protein included in every meal.

              A bodybuilder diet is closer to a healthy one, and not as restrictive as many imagine. You need to eat more to be able to pack on muscle mass. Eat clean food free of empty calories and you will gain far less fat over the bulking period. Read our post dietary for bodybuilders to get a better idea of what you are advised to eat, in what quantities and, what is indeed important, when to eat.

            Don’t underestimate the importance of water for building muscle mass. Water gives you energy, greatly improve metabolism rates and makes you feel better. I will not give you an example of best diet for building muscle mass as there is not much of this. We all are different and what works great for me, may not benefit you as well. The idea is to set your own diet based on general criteria about how it should look like. Try to create your own diet that supports your workout.

Supplements For Novice Bodybuilder:

            Whether you like it or not, even the best diet is not able to supply you with all the nutrients you need for fast muscle gains. Taking supplements is recommended, but not absolutely necessary. You can go without them, but your workouts will not be so productive. Or this is the case of naturally gifted bodybuilders who do well without any supplements at all.
