Skinny Guy Massive Muscle Building Lesson 3: Top Muscle Building Must-Have Foods

If you're looking to build muscle, it's vital that you're taking the time to make sure that you have certain foods in your diet that are really going to take your calorie level up there and provide you with the quality nutrients you need.

The number one mistake that many skinny guys make is not getting in enough calories to support good muscle growth
so by doing a once over to your current nutrition plan, you can ensure that this isn't a problem that's holding you back.

Let's take a quick look at the most important muscle building foods that should be included.

Salmon

Salmon is a perfect muscle building food because not only is it going to provide you with a high quality source of protein but you're also going to get some essential fatty acids with it. Since these are required for both optimum health as well as good muscle building process, you'll really benefit from eating this at least two to three times a week.

Due to the fact that salmon is a lot more calorie dense than chicken or egg whites are as well, this will also help you work towards your muscle building goals better.

Beef

Second, beef is another top rated source of protein because it's high in quality and will break down very slowly in the body. What's more is that it supplies iron, which is important for carrying oxygen to the working muscle tissues.

Without enough iron you may find that you fatigue faster in your workouts and that really holds you back from seeing results.

Quinoa

One muscle building food that often gets forgotten about by many is quinoa. This is a very similar food to brown rice and can be used in your meals much the same way, but the big difference here is that quinoa is a complete source of protein so will help boost
that protein intake up even higher.

If you're someone who is following a vegetarian diet, you'll definitely want to make use of this food.

Nuts

Moving on, to get more healthy fats in your day and up the calories, start tossing nuts into everything you can think of. Salads, casseroles, stir-fry's, into cereal, trail mix, or just eaten alone – these are a perfect muscle building food.
