Great muscle building meals

As we’ve said before, you want to make sure that you get all the macronutrients in every single meal.Having proper portions of protein, carbs and fat will ensure that your hard work in the gym will pay off due to proper eating. 

To add lean muscle, it’s important to ensure you have complex carbs, lean protein and healthy fats on your plate.The following are some meal ideas that you can incorporate into your nutritional plan so that you can realize that lean and toned body you desire.

• Whole wheat spaghetti and extra lean beef meat sauce

• Lemon grilled chicken over brown rice

• Turkey on whole wheat sub sandwich

• Pork tenderloin and sweet potatoes

• Oatmeal with scoop of whey protein

• Egg whites, turkey and salsa on a toasted whole wheat English muffin

• Chicken burrito bowl with chicken, brown rice, black beans, corn, lettuce, tomatoes and salsa

You get the idea. It’s not a reach for people to understand that protein is key to adding lean muscle, but it’s often difficult to convince people that complex carbs are just as important.The list above is a good starting point of meals that will help you build muscle you need to reduce fat and give you a nice toned look. 

Find the lean protein sources that fit your taste and lifestyle, do the same with complex carb sources and find the combinations that agree with your palette and macronutrient requirements.
