Foods to get you ripped
People are always wondering what I eat, or if I do any other training besides climbing. I do lots of other stuff, like martial arts, dancing, gymnastic rings, etc. But as far as foods, I actually do have a system that balances my energy.
Here is a list of great food that you should just try to always keep in your fridge:
- Water – get a purifier, or drink hot tea (from real loose leafs)
- Almonds and other nuts
- Spinach
- Broccoli
- Instant unsweetened unflavored oatmeal
- Eggs (get good kind, like freerange & gressfed)
- Turkey, Lean Stake, Tuna and other Fish
- Greens for salad
- Peanut butter (increases testosterone levels)
- Whole grain breads and cereals (instead of white or whole weat)
- Whey protein shakes
- Raspberries and other berries
- Plain Yogurt, Cottage Cheese
Simple Rules
-
Don’t overeat – snack throughout the day. (OK, you already know this :) but are you actually doing it? Are you proactively preparing food for yourself so you can eat it when you’re at work?
-
If you missed a dinner — don’t eat one. Have a little snack at night, go to sleep and have a big breakfast when you wake up.
-
Here is a big secret: Eat fruits and nuts for breakfast, (only) carbs for lunch/day, and (only) protein for dinner. Start every meal with a salad. Carbs is the best source of energy, so you need it throughout your day. Protein is needed to repair your body for when you go to sleep. Snacking on nuts (good fat) in the morning gives you a steady long energy levels and keeps your bloodsugar from spiking.
-
Bring your own food (from the list above) to work with you so you can eat it before you get hungry. If you’re feeling hungry, it means your blood sugar has already dropped! You’ll be less productive with your day.
- Never eat fast food, anything deep fried, processed, foods with lots of ingredients, white flour, lunch meats, nothing with hfcs (high fructose corn syrup), msg. Instead, try to eat the rawest most “first hand” type of energy sources. Plans get energy directly from sun, animals “process” them, we kill the animals and process those etc. The closer you get to the “caveman” way of eating, the better off you’ll be. Read the ingredients and stay away from foods with a lot ingredients. Simpler is easier to digest.
- Never eat food from someone who prepared it for you in the bad mood, including yourself. I’ve always believed we extract much more then just nutrients from food. There are other things that get transported through food that scientists don’t have a name for. (prov 15:17).
