Your complete guide to pre-, post-, and intra-workout exercise nutrition to build maximum muscle!
Let’s talk about eating. Nutrition is just as important as lifting for improving fitness, looking good, and gaining strength. When the two go hand-in-hand, amazing things are possible.
You already know if you eat too few calories you’ll starve your muscles—and feel awful. If you eat too many you’ll gain extra body fat. But the story doesn’t end there. Although how many calories you eat in a day is important, your ideal nutritional plan for maximizing gains is also about what types of food you eat, as well as meal timing.
HOW IMPORTANT IS IT TO HAVE A PRE-WORKOUT MEAL?
Nutrition is perhaps the most important factor in the fitness lifestyle. The right vitamins, minerals, macronutrients, calorie levels, and meal timing are needed for the body to function at its very best. Quality nutrition fuels our bodies for maximum performance.
What you eat before a workout determines whether or not you will have the energy to achieve your greatest potential during each session. It can make a big effect in getting a extra couple reps, or increasing the amount of weight during your lifts.
