Bodybuilders need adequate amounts of proteins, minerals, vitamins, fats, carbohydrates, and water on a daily basis. Balanced nutrition generally means that you are consuming the appropriate servings each day from the basic four food groups.
The eating plan that I've used successfully many times previously with bodybuilders Is called the 4:4:8:8 ratio. The 4:4:8:8 ratio is a reminder of how much of each food group you should have as a minimum each day.
The carbohydrate-rich foods fruits, vegetables, breads, and cereals provide significant vitamins and minerals. The protein-rich foods meat and milk supply adequate amino acids for muscular growth, the 4:4:8:8 ratio Is perfect tor getting bigger.
Thus, most of the menus and meal schedules in this program are derived by using the 4:4:8:8 ratio. It worked well for Keith Whitley and David Hammond. And it will work for you!
In the next chapter, I'll describe how I determine the number of calories for Keith and David to consume each day, and how you can do the same. Plus, I'll discuss the day-by-day workout program.
