Let's make this clear: if you're trying to gain weight, you must have a post-workout meal, it becomes the most important meal in the whole day.
In a time window from when you finish working out to ~60m after, there's a phase in which you have to feed your muscles, and this is utterly important.
What does your body need?
- Amino acids (the constituents of protein)
- Carbohydrates
1. Chicken
[/b]
In the photo is cooked with vegetables but, nutritionally talking, the sliced one is kinda the same.
18.7% protein, calcium, magnesium, iron and B vitamin.
2. Eggs
[/b]
Eggs are one of the best protein sources
33.6% protein, calcium, potassium, sodium, also a great source of fats.
3. Beans
[/b]
20.9% protein, 77.3% carbohydrates, potassium and A vitamin.
4. Tuna
[/b]
61.3% protein, 38.2% fats, great for sodium and phosphorus.
5. fruits and vegetables
[/b]
Well, i can't be specific, every fruit and vegetable is different, generally great for hydratation and vitamines.
What's your usual post-workout meal made up of?
