For this part of the website, I'll give daily advice on nutrition, a healthy meal of the day, and answering questions made by you!
General Advice
- You generally want to eat every 2-3 hours to keep your metabolism burning
- I recommend for gaining muscle mass to consume 1 to 1.5 grams of protein and 2-3 grams of carbohydrates per pound of bodyweight per day
- To build mass, you want to consume more calories then you burn, and to lose weight/fat you burn more calories then you intake.
- If you are physically active, you can multiply each pound of bodyweight you have by 20
- Proper hydration! Make sure you drink at least eight 8-ounch glasses of water per day in addition to what you drink in workouts
