Foods To Avoid When Trying To Gain Muscle
Written by ama on November 24, 2010 – 3:42 am -
Hardgainer’s Guide To Gain Muscle
When attempting to gain muscle, it is not enough that you exercise. Diet is an important factor to every exercise schedule. Without the proper diet, your body will not get the nourishment that it requires to convert into muscles. Similarly, there are some food items that you must avoid if you want to gain muscle. We can list down 7 food times that you must avoid at all costs if you are planning to build your body.
1. Doughnuts:
When you see these round sweet treats you would hardly be able to avoid the smell of these sweet treats. However you should know that these doughnuts barely consider other nutrients than fat. The fastest way to get fat is by eating doughnuts. Each doughnut contains about 400+ calories. It's important to bear in mind all the hard work you are doing to gain muscle, this will give you the focus to resist temptation.
2. Cheeseburger with fries:
Another very common dish that has been your favorite every since your child hood perhaps, and a dish that you just can’t resist. Just remember that all this does is add more unnecessary calories. The entire dish has about 720 calories. This is excluding the mayonnaise that just adds on to the fat.
3. Fried chicken:
How can you ever give up fried chicken? It’s a part of your life. However you should remember that this piece of your life adds on around 420 calories with every piece. The process of deep frying adds fat and takes away the nutritional goodness. Therefore you are not really gaining anything out of the meal except more cholesterol in your body.
4. Oscar Mayer's Lunchables:
You might love them because they are easy and convenient, but you should remember that they are also unhealthy. Almost 70% of this is just pure calories. They contain no fruits or vegetables and provide absolutely no nutrition. Therefore you need to make sure that you are away from them when you are on your mission to gain muscle.
5. Sugary Cereal:
The kids love it. You depend on it. It will never help you gain muscle. These cereals are sweetened and dyed and puffed. That's why these should never form a part of your diet.
6. Processed meat:
Things that fall under the category are bacon, jerky beef and hot dogs. You should make sure that you stay away from these the minute you plan on going on a diet to gain muscle. If you are planning to build muscle then these are your worst enemies.
7. Canned soup:
You though it was healthy? Many other did too. However, contrary to popular belief canned soup is very unhealthy. This is because canned soup contains trans fats in high amounts. Also artificial preservations and quantities of sodium make it all the unhealthier. Hence if you are trying to gain muscle, this is one thing that you should clearly avoid.
