Nutrition ArticlesFast Food nutritional Values do you know what your eating when you visit your favorite fast food restaurant? The Bodybuilder's Guide to Nutrition Many bodybuilders put a lot of focus into the details of their nutritional strategy.

Foods For Carb Load The shitload will only work if you are lean enough, have your water correct, and are glycogen depleted enough. Of course, all three should be done whether you shitload or not but it gets funny when someone who wasn't lean enough blames something like a shitload for making them look fat. lol I won't mention any names but I should.

Nutrition more important than Training Which is really more important, nutrition or training? This IS an interesting question and I believe there is a definite answer: Post Workout Nutrition As I enter the gym, my heart starts racing and I tingle with anticipation.

Protein First off everyone should learn how there body reacts to protein and how their metabolism is. Just like training. To me nutrition is 70% of the battle and responsible for most of my gains no matter what AAs or how I trained my gains were/ are concurrent with my nutrition program. I eat a high protein diet that's no secret. My body hates carbs. |
