The organizing principles of good nutrition that will take
this area of your bodybuilding and training efforts to the
next level!
1. Place A High Priority On Eating:
You must place a very high priority on the way you eat if
you want to take your physique to the next level. The way
you eat is far more important than the way you train. You’re
in the gym for about an hour a day. It’s what you do during
those other 23 hours of the day that are going to make the
biggest impact on your progress.
2. Burn More Calories:
You must burn more calories than you eat if you want to
lose body fat. It doesn’t matter if almost all of the food you
eat is good, healthy food, you must burn more than you eat
or you’ll get fat.
3. Don’t Look For The “Perfect” Diet:
Stop looking for the “perfect” diet. Nothing worth having in
life comes without some sacrifice. Eating the way you must
to build the body you want will be no exception.
In the long run, it’s the challenges that we face that makes
what we have rewarding. How enjoyable would life be if
everything was easy? When you start adhering to a particular
eating regimen, anticipate the discipline, sacrifice, and
discomfort that comes with the pursuit of any worthwhile
goal.
4. Keep It Simple:
Keep your diet simple. That way, you’ll give yourself a
better chance to follow through and ultimately achieve
successful results. If you must make your diet more complex,
do so on the weekends only.
5. Eat Smaller, More Frequent Meals:
Eat smaller, more frequent and well-balanced meals spaced
evenly throughout the day. Your body will use the nutrients
in your food more efficiently. You’ll build more muscle and
prevent body fat this way.
