Eating plays an important role in building your muscles

               Eating is very important to build muscles . If you have been working hard and regularly than anybody else in the gym, and not seen the results you wanted, maybe eating is where you can turn things around. I know this for a fact, because I spent 2 years working out very hard only to put on 8 pounds, but the moment I began eating to build muscles ,I went on to get  20+ pounds of muscle in a year. I had more confidence in my own body. For the first time in my life I was glad  to take my shirt off at the beach or pool. I wasn't the thin one anymore in my circle of friends and the compliments from my friends came almost as much as the people asking for advice on how to build muscle. 

Since then , I realized that Eating plays an important role in Building Muscles more than the exercise you're doing for your chest, or how much you're bicep curling. In fact, what you eat is going to affect your mass gains more than anything else. 

          I’m going to tell you how I started eating to build muscles, and the concepts I followed to make my daily meal plan. 

Eating to build muscles is not an indiscriminate process of gobbling everything in sight. It is a careful method of nutrient consumption that focuses on both the QUANTITY and QUALITY of foods you consume. 

Caloric intake - This is the first thing you need to change. Your caloric intake must match and then surpass your energy requirements. Since your workout routines are so demanding and the process of building muscle itself requires energy, your caloric intake must be in surplus of this. Below is a rule of thumb to know what your caloric intake should be. 

20 X body weight (lbs) = daily caloric intake.

 Protein intake.Eating to build muscles involves consuming a very large amount of proteins. Most people advocate the following protein consumption. 

1.5 X body weight (lbs) = daily protein intake (grams) 

I recommend that if you notice no  changes then you can increase both these quantities in little steps till  you do notice some muscle gains. Moreover, 

Eating to build muscles requires a large amount of carbohydrates as these are the most ready source of energy for your body.  some good oils like coconut and olive oil are great for your body because they help your body produce more testosterone. when you are eating to build muscles , you can consume almost anything you want (sugars included) around your workouts because your body will suck it up .

        

      Finally, make sure you have loads of water, because this will help detoxify your body environment and keep you well hydrated.  

 Now that you know all the components in the eating to build muscles diet plan, you should know how to time these meals. Have a big easy to absorb breakfast, and have a very easy to absorb post-work out meal. All other meals made of good natural foods should be had very regularly. Spaced a maximum of 3-4 hours between each other. What I can say that Eating is very important to build muscles
