EXAMPLE OF A FAT-BURNING, MUSCLE BUILDING BREAKFAST:
* Ezekiel- Bread made with sprouted grain- the healthiest, nutrients and fiber rich bread EVER! (can be found at Wholefood).
* Naturaly More peanut butter - What peanut butter should be: less sugar, no hydrogenated oils, more protein, omega 3 to help you burn fat. (Acme, Genuardis, Walmart)
* Acai light - less calories, a blend of electrolytes and antioxidant. With Acai berries, nature's #1 super food (Acme, Genuardis, Walmart)
* Eggs - A must have every morning if you are serious about building strong and lean muscles
Nowadays, more and more people are skipping breakfast, mostly because of late nights and hectic schedules.
Of course, this is an unhealthy practice, but if you’re also trying to build muscle and trying to gain lean muscle fast, this is a recipe for complete disaster.
It’s with good reason that breakfast has been called the most important meal of the day; After a night of sleep, you wake up after undergoing a prolonged period of starvation. Already in a catabolic state, your muscles are being rapidly wasted away.
You need to switch your body back to an anabolic state as soon as possible if you want to continue to gain lean muscle fast.
Eating a proper breakfast is the quickest way to do this.
This will not only help you to gain muscles but also help you to lose fat throughout the day. To be able to gain lean muscle fast, your goal should be to correct the deficit of protein, nutrients and water with 45 minutes of waking up.
A good breakfast will allow your blood sugar and glycogen levels to get back to normal, jump start your fat burning metabolic rate, and reverse muscle catabolism.
For best results, you should eat as soon as possible after you wake up.Wait a few minutes if you’re not hungry, but not more than 45 minutes. Also, avoid liquid foods and juices first thing as you wake up and have some solid food first (Don't dilute the bile that's been accumulating in your stomach all night but rather absorb it with a piece of bread)
High quality protein should be the first and main component of your breakfast.
My recommendation is that you get about 30 grams of protein from lean meat, eggs or even a whey protein shake if you can't eat anything solid.
This will stop your body from catabolizing protein in your muscle and also help you gain lean muscle fast.
After this, you need to get two portions of a moderate to a high glycemic index carbohydrate.
This is also a good time to eat a tablespoon of peanut butter, flax seed oil and/or extra virgin olive oil,Don’t worry about these fats; these are healthy and will help you build muscle and burn fat.
