Even if it is often a taboo topic, a lot of people just don’t want to admit that deep inside them, they would like to have more muscles.

Having more muscle is not just an aesthetic thing: if you have a good back and good legs, you will be more apt to age peacefully, because body’s health is extremely important when you get old.

Here are 3 things to absolutely avoid if you want to have a strong and muscular body.

1 –  Not Eating Enough Protein

This is a huge mistake: proteins are the building blocks of muscle. It is like if you want to build a house, but you don’t have cement to do it, this makes absolutely no sense.

You should aim to get at least 1.5g per pounds of your body weight.

What are the best protein sources ?

You can eat meat (beef, chicken), fish and of course eggs.

2 – Skipping Meals During The Day

If you truly want to build muscle fast, one of the most important thing you can do is to eat every 3 hours.

Even if this concept has not been totally proven, the most muscular people in the world are doing that. So why changing this habit, if it is working very good for all of them ?

Just start to take the habit of eating every 3 or every 4 hours. If you don’t have time to have a meal, even a small one, you can just drink a protein shake, and it will be alright.

3 – Eating Junk Food

If you think eating junk food will give you a muscular body, you are clearly in the wrong path.

Excess carb intakes won’t help you to build muscle, but rather to pack on some fat.

Same thing with trans fats. Just stick to natural foods: green veggies, organic fruits, lean meats..
The simpler, the better.

That doesn’t mean you can’t have a cheat meal sometimes, but please don’t do it too often if you want to stay in good health and build muscle fast.
