Bodybuilding Nutrients - The Key To Muscle Growth And Energy
What you need: complex carbohydrates, protein, and fat.
How much of each: 55% carbs, 30% protein, and 15% fat.
Complex Carbohydrates
Your body’s primary energy source comes from complex carbohydrates. A few examples are wholegrain breads, brown rice, and oats.
Keep away from the simple, refined carbs. The refining process that many of our foods go through is what makes them useless. A few examples are white bread, candy, cakes.
Getting away from white rice and eating brown rice may not be easy for some to do but a simple change like that alone will start to show results in your energy levels and soon your physique.
