Building body mass at low cost
June 12, 2009
Once you have lost all the extra fat your focus will shift to building your body mass. This may be unsettling for many, as they will now have to focus on getting additional calories in.
This will involve a lot of thought and expense. There are replacement products and supplements that are available but are not good for your health. With the correct purchases, you can boost your body mass while not spending much.
Buying from bulk: Each supermarket has a bulk bin area, which has numerous items that are not expensive yet help build your body mass. Some items are nuts, which are very high on calories, pasta for before and after workouts, dried fruit for snacking, rice, and oats.
Egg Yolk: Egg yolk is extremely nutritious and helps in mass building. People tend to avoid egg yolks as it is said to be high in cholesterol and fat. However, one or two egg yolks a day are extremely helpful in boosting testosterone levels and are high in calories. This is a cheap option for proteins.
Peanut Butter: We are all aware that nuts are extremely good for your health and contain good fats. Peanut butter is equally good and is cost effective too. You can apply it on your toast or bagel; mix it with your shake or cereal. While choosing, make sure that, it is not one for kids as they contain extra sugar.
No supplements: Say no to supplements of any form. Not only are they bad for your health but they are extremely expensive too. You can continue some basic supplements like multi vitamins, whey protein powder, fish oil, and creatine. With a proper diet and a regular workout, there is no need for supplements of any kind. Supplements do not really provide many benefits.
Using milk powder: Adding skimmed milk powder to your protein shake or oatmeal increases its nutritional value. Three tablespoons of skimmed milk powder contains one hundred calories, thirteen grams of carbohydrates and nine grams of protein. It also improves the taste making your shake smooth and creamy.
