Do I have to?

Do I have to eat right and all that to get good and big muscles or does fat intake not effect weight training?

If you wanna get big muscles and at the same time remain cut, you need to eat large ammountsof protein through meats like chicken, beef, and Turkey, ext. At the same time you need to eat low ammounts of fats and keep carbohydrate to a medium ammount (not minimum).

yes, body building is very much a 24 hour job that takes a lot of sacrifice.

 

I know when I ate properly as well as 3 hardcore training sessions a week I dropped the fat and added muscle.

i had 3 bowls of cheerios and 1 and a half cups of skim milk with it and a lot of water and a nutrigrain bar and 4 crackers with a lil cottage cheese and a little steak.

 

And for excersize i did, skateboarding-basketball and i rode my bike for about 20 minutes. How was this for my first day?

Cereal has alot of carbs. Beside you should be eating more vegstables, fruits and also meats and other foods with high protein content.

 

As far as exercise goes, I would start lifting weights and also go running for a few miles.

this is an awesome diet that works to pack on the muscle when combined with regular free weight training.. i adapted it from anthony ellis' diet at http://www.skinnyguy.net and can vouch for its effectiveness.. it works very well.

 

8 am - milk + whey protein, 2 bananas, oatmeal.

 

10:30 am - 4 eggs in a flour tortilla with salsa (this is actually pretty good!).

 

1:00 pm - lunch. medium serving of pasta with a meat sauce.

 

3:30 pm - tuna sandwich, banana or two.

 

6:00 pm - dinner. two chicken breasts (cooked in whatever way you prefer), some green veggies (steamed asparagus/broccoli are my favs), and maybe some potatoe.

 

before bed - milk + whey protein.

 

6 relatively light meals per day that are packed with protein and carbs, as well as being low in fat. make sure to drink loads of water throughout the day, as it will not only assist your kidneys in their work but improve vascularity, which will give you more visible veins. also, mix it up with some different, yet still nutrionally similar foods for some variety now and again.

 

enjoy!

that sounds great, thanks for the input but monday thru friday I am in school from 6:50 A.M till 4:15 P.M

 

So it is kind of hard to make those things in school..

no sweat my man! just takes a bit of extra work. i'm at university anywhere from 7:30am to 9:00pm, and i admit that it's tough to eat that much every day when you're on such a tight schedule.. but start doing it routinely and it'l become second nature.

 

the key is to make everything the night before, and substitute easier-to-make things for the harder stuff to come by. whip up the egg tortilla and make the sandwich before you go to bed the night before, and before you head to school in the morning take a couple microwavable pasta dinners (i love michellina's penne pollo) for lunch and pop em in a microwave in the cafeteria or wherever.

 

as long as you're prepared, you can make it every day.. gotta make sure you're always well-stocked on the food though, and don't get lazy in the night when it comes time to make the meals. that can be my biggest problem.
