Growing Muscle Through Diet

Hi, my name is Alex Cameron, and im a competitive ametuer body builder. Ive just put together a great resource site on body building and lean muscle. I wish to give to you a insight into the top tips that I use to kick start the body building plan on the right foot.
The most important part of your routine is to eat properly!
You hear it time and time again. Its harder to get your diet right, than it is to turn up to the gym and pump out a 2 hour weight session. Im fully aware of this, and I know what its like because ive been in your position before. It wasnt until I changed that good advice into a working action plan, that I began to pile on noticeable weight and size.
The most common diet error, is that people assume to get massive, youve got to eat tons of protien and little else. Be wary of this advice!
Ideally what you want to do is balance the intakes of protien foods when your metabolism is ready to take in and digest the protiens. For a good day, you want to 'wake' your body nice and quickly by taking on morning foods that awaken the muscle and digestive system.
For the first meal of they day, breakfast, its a great idea to get in plenty of carb and fibre. Porridge, wholegrain toast and olive oil spreads are ideal. Real fruit provides vitamens and fibre is incredible for digestive health, and ensuring your ready for the protien blast you will unleash on it after a workout.
A protien shake in the morning is good, but save the harder to digest protiens for later in the day, such as poultry or beef.
By about 10am ish, the body will be ready for its next hit. Now is when food like brown rice and carrots or perhaps a tub of cottage cheese (250g) is perfect. If your having a sweet craving a low fat low sugar yoghurt is a good option, with some strawberries and wholemeal bread.
