Three square meals a day...breakfast, lunch and dinner.Can a person achieve great muscle-building results with just three meals a day?

Absolutely...and I'll tell you how.

It's all about meal timing and quantity.

Before I get started, please note it IS very true that you're better off eating smaller, more frequent meals, both for muscle building and fat loss. I'm not going to argue with that.

The problem arises because many people simply CAN'T get more than 3 meals day.

Here's my solution...
1. Plan to train in the late afternoon/early evening, if you can. For our meal timing, this will be the best option.

2. Have a moderately large breakfast...eggs, oatmeal, broccoli...whatever else you normally eat. Breakfast is the second most important meal of the day (for our purposes here, at least) and it's not going to be your biggest.

3. Have a medium-sized lunch...at this point, you're looking to not overload your digestive system with food (you already did that with breakfast) because you'll be training fairly soon.

4. Do your workout and have your post-workout shake.

5. DINNER is going to be your biggest meal of the day. Because your body is primed to take full advantage of whatever you eat after training THIS is the time to load up. You should get at least half your days calories or more in this meal...overloading calories like this is extremely anabolic and your body will thrive on it.

6. Next day, repeat.

Selecting The Perfect Food Choices For Breakfast

So which foods should your breakfast meal consist of? Which are going to be healthiest for both muscle mass building as well as keeping your energy levels stable?

Ideally you want to get in a mixture of carbohydrates, proteins, and healthy fats. This will ensure that you aren't missing out on anything that the body needs to function optimally.

Here is the list of my favourite breakfast foods:
Carbs
Oatmeal
Shredded Wheat
Cream of wheat
Whole Wheat or Ezekiel Bread
Fruits and Vegetables

Protein
Whey Protein Powder
Eggs
Liquid Egg Whites
Low or Non-Fat Cottage cheese
Greek Yogurt
Turkey Bacon

Fats
Natural peanut or almond butter
Almonds or walnuts
Olive oil or Macadamia nut oil
Avocado

More than often, I will make an omelette that I will complement with some carbs from the list above.

So there you have the need-to-know information about creating a proper muscle building breakfast. Make sure you aren't missing out!

How do you like your breakfast? What's your favourite breakfast food?
