Proper nutrition is essential to staying healthy and fit.

These <\/span>9<\/span> foods help you build strength and should be a regular part of your muscle building diet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Top 9 Foods for a Muscle Gain Diet<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Legumes are protein and fiber powerhouses. Lentils, for example, are especially <\/span>high in protein<\/span>. 100 g of this dry good <\/span>provides<\/span> about 25 g of protein. Their fiber content is also nothing to sneeze at. Just 100 g covers half of your daily requirement (30 g).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Do you know how much protein you need per day to build muscle? Calculate your protein requirement here:<\/strong><\/p>\n Eggs are <\/span>the perfect food for a muscle gain diet.<\/span> One chicken egg provides about 7 g of protein. Plus, its biological value is nearly 100. What does that mean? The higher the biological value, the more similar the protein in the food is to the body\u2019s own protein, which makes it easier for the body to transform it into muscle mass. Two hard-boiled eggs, for instance, are an ideal post-workout snack.<\/span><\/p>\n If fitness is your goal, you should definitely be using flaxseed oil. It\u2019s highly nutritious and loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, which keep your heart and brain healthy and help stop inflammation.<\/span><\/p>\n Good to know:<\/span><\/p>\n Cold-pressed flaxseed oil should be stored in the fridge. The oil keeps for up to 5 months if the bottle is sealed. Once the seal has been broken you should use it as quickly as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Quinoa is the ideal side dish for bodyweight training. 100 g provides 15 g of <\/span>vegan<\/span> protein<\/span>. This grain is also very<\/span> high in magnesium<\/span> (275 mg), which plays a key role in muscle contraction. <\/span><\/p>\n Ginger not only strengthens your immune system: this Asian root is said to improve blood flow to the muscles (<\/span>which helps with sore muscles!<\/span>) and promote the breakdown of lactic acid in muscle tissue. This helps you recover quickly, so you are ready for the next workout.<\/span><\/p>\n Protein pancakes with cottage cheese are the perfect breakfast if you <\/span>like bodyweight training<\/span>. Why? This dairy product is low in calories and a good source of high-quality protein and carbohydrates. Cottage cheese also contains the essential amino acid tryptophan, which <\/span>helps you sleep better<\/span>. And adequate sleep is crucial if you want to perform your best.<\/span><\/p>\n How about a cup of <\/span>coffee before your workout<\/span>? Coffee increases your blood pressure and heart rate, which helps you to get the most out of your workout. But go easy on the amount. <\/span>An <\/span>espresso is a good idea before a bodyweight training session, but skip the milk and sugar!<\/span><\/p>\n Small but powerful!
