Muscle Building For Women

 

 

 


Muscle building for women is a taboo act. Most women think they aren't built for it, and they may have a point. But that doesn't mean it is possible for women to bulk up and join the community of bodybuilders.

How often should I eat?

You should be eating every 2-3hrs. Your body holds onto the nutrients of protein for roughly 2-4hrs. You need to keep the inflow constant, so you know that your body is getting it. There is also an added benefit of having an increased metabolism, which should help you keep off any excess fat that may come with your eating habits.

How can I make my workouts more intense?

Well, intensity comes from being properly fueled. This means you're going to need to have a meal heavy in carbs prior to your workout. Carbs are your energy food and the more you have in you before you goto workout will result in a more intense and energetic workout. You also need to eat a high amount of carbs after you workout. The reason is to replenish all the lost nutrients from an intense workout.

Is it wise to get up in the middle of the night to eat protein?

There is a debate on this and I've concluded it's better to sleep. The reason I think sleep is better is because there are ways to get protein in your system, while you still sleep. It's actually pretty simple. If you eat combinations of protein and fat you can have protein last the whole night. Your body takes more time to digest fat, therefore as your protein + fat combo digests slowly, you'll get a constant flow of protein all night.
