Diet is very important for your weight gaining program. 80% of your muscle building success is determined by your choice of diet.

Include proper nutrition in your diet. Taking fast food and junk food will do you more harm than good.

Apart from a healthy menu, you should keep in mind portion sizes and frequency of meals.

Weight gain foods that will support your weight training and help you put on muscle are:

1. Proteins

Poultry, turkey, eggs; if you have to eat red meat choose the lean parts

Dairy products like milk, cheese, Soya

1. Carbohydrates

Vegetables which are also a good source of fiber, whole grain breads, oats, pasta

Fiber helps the body in digesting all those weight gain foods you are consuming

1. Cereals

Eat whole grain cereals like muesli, bran and shredded wheat. Cereals are great weight gain foods.

Muscle building nutrition guidelines

1. The correct ratio of nutrition to include in your menu is 50% carbohydrates, 20% fat and 30% proteins.

1. Ensure that you eat a lot of proteins and carbohydrates immediately after your weight training workouts. Eat also soon after you wake up and before you go to sleep. This will ensure that your muscles will not go for long periods of time without proper nutrition.

1. Include supplements in your diet especially if you are a poor eater. Supplements contain proteins, vitamins, iron, amino acids, creatine and glutamine.

Drinks

Drink at least a gallon of water daily. This will help you flush out toxins from your system. Proteins usually produce a lot of toxins in the body. Again, muscle building requires a lot of chemical reactions in the body, which require water to do this.

Other drinks to include are fresh fruit juices and milk shakes. Go for the ones which have high calories. Avoid caffeine and sugary drinks like soda and coffee.
