The Keys to Gaining Lean Muscle - The Diet

• Eat 5-6 meals per day comprised of healthy proteins, carbs and fats
• Aim to consume at least 3 grams of Omega 3 fats per day
• Consume 2grams of protein per kg of bodyweight per day
• Avoid excess alcohol (recommended maximum level for women is 14 per week and 21 per men)
• Consume a protein/carbohydrate recovery shake after your workout
• Ensure your diet is rich in antioxidants or supplement with them
• Avoid sugars or supplements that contain maltodextrin unless they are used immediately post workout since they are high Glycemic Index ranking

The Keys to Gaining Lean Muscle - The Training.

• As a general rule, do not train each bodypart more than twice per week to help prevent overtraining
• Perform cardio at least 3 times a week to help burn fat.  Duration need not be more than 30 minutes medium to hard intensity
• Stick to the basic weight training exercises like Squats, Bench Presses, Barbell Rows etc. They are much better at stimulating lean muscle growth because they work the larger muscle groups
• Weight training sessions should not last more than 40 minutes, if they do you could run the risk of overtraining.
