How To Build Muscle Fast Through Anabolism: Part IV

I hope you realize that during the workout, first of all that’s not where the building takes place, that’s where the need is build and repair tissue. And also during that workout you’re depleting so many energy sources that you have to make sure that you restore that as quickly as possible.

Because what happens if you don’t restore the energy levels, provide the protein, and do everything else it needed in order to build and repair tissues? Your body still needs energy sources for all of its bodily functions and processes. Where is it going to get that, because you just depleted them in the workout? Well, it’s going to go and break down tissues. Those tissues are the same tissues that you want to keep in order to become stronger and a more powerful athlete. Understand that this is a critical time right after your workout. So getting your nutrition straight at this time is going to help out a lot.

Now, you’ve spiked your insulin, and you’ve gone back and had a meal within an hour, and you’ve continued your nutrition throughout the day. Let’s fast forward to when you’re going to go to sleep. What you’re going to want to do here is take another source of protein. But this time we’re going to tweak it a little bit. We’re going to take a casein protein.

 

A casein protein is a type of protein that digests and is injected into the body much slower than a whey protein. Now the reason we’re going to do that is you’re going to hopefully be asleep for 8 hours, and you want to make sure that you are getting protein during that entire time. So it’s going to be a good idea for you to have a casein protein at that point. I’d also recommend at least a granola bar and a banana as well. It’s good to develop a good pre sleep snack so that during that entire fast, that eight hour fast, your body can have enough energy sources in order to stay in that anabolic state.

Now I promise you guys, if you get that straight, if you’re able to get your nutrition straight and stay in an anabolic state, you will notice immense difference in how much muscle and strength you’re going to be able to create after your workouts. You’ll notice that your workouts are going to actually show improvement after each and every workout. Each week you’re going to notice every week that you’re stronger.
