[QUOTE="Benjamin, post: 3363, member: 379"] When it comes to an ideal diet for a bodybuilder there are many myths that hamper you from achieving their bodybuilding goals. While everyone is aware that muscle building requires protein, they are also worried about excess calories consumed that can lead to negative results. However, it is possible to have a bodybuilder’s diet that is high in protein and low in calories. In order to ensure adequate nutrition the bodybuilder has to focus on including complex carbohydrates in their meal. This will make them feel fuller, release the carbs at a slower pace ensuring they have the stamina for the workouts, and also provide all the vitamins and minerals that the body needs apart from the protein. [B]Getting Stronger [/B] By including complex carbohydrates in every meal along with protein, the bodybuilder also enables better absorption of protein. This makes the use of complex carbohydrates in the bodybuilder’s diet a win-win situation for all concerned. [B]Notching Higher on the Strength Charts [/B] Another way in which bodybuilders can keep the calories down even as they consume a high protein diet is to eliminate most of the unhealthy fats. By substituting almond or cashew butter for normal butter it is possible to include more protein while eliminating unnecessary fat from the diet. This will enable you to keep control of the calories consumed with greater ease. Many bodybuilders also feel dehydrated and tired, prompting them to snack. Instead, the bodybuilder should stay hydrated by drinking plenty of clear water. This will enable them to consume a high protein, low calorie diet and still perform all the exercises they need to. While it can be difficult to achieve, a bodybuilder’s diet that is high in protein and low in calories is not impossible. However, it does require more planning. [/QUOTE]
