Building muscle and losing fat is quite simply a simple thing to do. Many professional bodybuilders and fitness athletes have done it either in the past or are currently doing it. With these simple tips that I will list below you can be sure that you will gain muscle while losing fat!
The building of muscle will increase ones strength, however to do this one must follow a strict and sound training regiment, while increasing their caloric intake. For the average person looking to increase their muscle mass and strength I would recommend them getting at least one gram of protein per pound of body weight, while doing weight training and lifting heavy and also while maintaining a strict and sound form. I would also recommend them to increase their caloric intake, which quite simply requires them to eat more. Finally, once again I would also recommend them to eat every three to four hours with a good diet, which supplies the body with protein, carbohydrates and good fats. Now for a person that is competing but looking to gain muscle while increasing their strength, I would recommend them to keep a close watch on their intake of certain carbohydrates and fats, while maintaining a strict caloric intake, which means they should measure and count the calories which they are putting in their bodies.
A good meal plan for a person looking to gain muscle, while gaining strength would look something like this:
Meal 1 (9:00am): Six eggs scrambled with a cup of porridge or oatmeal
Meal 2 (12:00pm): A meaty sandwich with a cup of yogurt and cup of milk
Meal 3 (3:00pm): A meal replacement shake such as a protein shake, carbohydrate shake or a mass gainer
Meal 4 (6:00pm): Here you will eat your dinner, now this might include three chicken breasts and two cups of rice, with a cup of vegetables
Meal 5 (9:00pm): A meal replacement shake such a protein shake, carbohydrate shake or a mass gainer
Losing Fat:
To lose fat one must simply cut their caloric intake in half. Once again for the person that is competing they will have to watch their carbohydrate and fat intake, but for the average person it will be different. The average person must cut their caloric intake in half, while doing a sound and strict weight training program with cardiovascular activities such as running or walking.
