Nutrition & Eating Clean

All the exercise in the world will make little difference if you are eating poorly. Nutrition is 80% of what it takes to get your body into the best shape ever.  For the Figure or Fitness competitor, nutrition makes the difference between winning a show and placing LAST.

This is the most important secret of the best physique athletes. They know how important a healthy diet is and how easy it is to gain fat by eating poorly even if you are working out consistently.

Think about this, your average intensity 30-minute treadmill session burns between 200-300 calories. 1 2 oz. Snickers bar contains 273 calories and a 16 oz of Mountain Dew contains 220 calories! You just wasted a half hour of hard work by eating one candy bar OR drinking a Mountain Dew.  Simple sugars will undermine your hard work and should be eliminated from your diet whenever possible.  While time can be tight, with the proper thought and preparation, you can make the nutrition plan work.

In this section you will learn the importance of Clean Eating and find sample nutrition plans along with recipes and diet tips to help you reach your fitness goals.
