I have recently joined a fitness first gym localally to where I live
mainly to get fit, & build muscle growth, I work very hard on the weights side of things I'm more toned but my muscle growth aint happening. I know protein is for muscle, my question being what foods contain most protein, if my family like those foods that is.and do protein drinks work if so can any one recomend a certain make or brand thanx.
chicken beef fish eggs - some bodybuilders can simply drink eggs down (saves having to mess about cooking them). www.atkinscenter.com can give you loads of info on protein in the diet
I'd recommend concentrating on getting fit, and not worrying about building up your muscles just for the sake of it -- but yes, meat, fish, eggs and cheese are protein foods.
Try to increase your reps and reduce the weights so you build smaller but more defined muscles you also build stamina I've worked with some body builders of the Arnie type and although they are big blokes they haven't got any stamina and soon get Knackered . Stay away from fatty foods fat takes longer to get rid of than muscle but when it goes your muscle willstand out more
