3. Keep track of your protein intake.
Perhaps it's getting a little repetitive but food plays a very important role in one's fitness regime.
If you are serious about gaining some mass and muscle, protein-rich food should be your bread and butter. Read up on protein, identify the foods that are rich in protein and master a dietary plan accordingly.
Ensure that you consume the right amount of protein in accordance with your body weight. Overconsumption of protein can have a serious detrimental impact on your fitness regime. Excess proteins get stored in the body as fat.
Everyday, especially while travelling, you have to track your protein intake religiously. The fitness norm indicates that you have should 1g of protein intake for every pound that you weigh, daily.
Monitoring the exact amount of protein intake manually is difficult.
Instead, it is wise to use smart mobile applications that help you monitor your daily protein intake. An example of one such mobile application is MyFitnessPal but there are many more such mobile applications. Just find one that you find easy to use.
