Even if your training is perfect, an incomplete diet will prevent any muscle gains. If you want to grow, you've got to eat, and the most important key to growth is a caloric surplus. The excess calories will fuel growth and provide the energy to train.
Rules
BALANCE YOUR PROTEINS: Take in protein of all types from all sources — fast acting, slow acting, whey, casein, egg, fish and animal proteins (beef, chicken, turkey, etc.).
JUNK IT UP: Don't be afraid to eat some junk food once or twice per week. This boosts your metabolism and gives your body a different type of fuel. Stick to the "clean junk." These are calorically dense, but not super greasy foods. Examples are pasta, burgers, steak, sweet potato fries and cheesecake.
BALANCE YOUR CARBS: If you want to grow, insulin spikes are your friends. You just have to time them correctly, like breakfast and postworkout. These are the times to have some fast-acting carbs that quickly replenish glycogen stores.
Pre-Workout
1.Carb Supplement - 1 scoop
Should contain Vitargo, Karbolyn dextrose, or maltodextrin.
2.Pre-Workout Supplement - 2 scoops
Should contain NO boosters, creatine, beta-alanine and glutamine.
Post Workout
1.Recovery Supplement - 2 scoops
Should contain BCAAs, creatine, glutamine, and NO boosters.
2.Carb Supplement - 1 scoop
Should contain Vitargo, Karbolyn dextrose, or maltodextrin.
Avoid stimulant-based products preworkout when you are trying to grow. Stimulants like caffeine restrict blood flow and kill your pump. They can also screw up your sleep pattern and ruin your appetite.
Branched-chain amino acids are great for building muscle. Try 5-10 grams of pure BCAAs three times per day: preworkout, postworkout and before bed.
If you can't get enough calories from food, then drink the rest. Weight-gaining shakes have a place, but don't depend on them. Whole foods should always be the primary source of calories.
Creatine should be part of any muscle-building plan. Five grams per day is perfect for cell volumization and a strength boost.
A fast-acting carbohydrate drink postworkout will spike insulin and aid in nutrient transport. Your creatine and BCAAs will get to the muscles quicker to start building and repairing.
