How to Eat to Compete or Just Walk the Beach!


If your goal is to step on the stage and compete, or just to get an amazing fit body for the beach, take note of these very important eating tips. These steps are guaranteed to get you a winning physique!

  1. Stay hydrated; drink plenty of water throughout the day, at least 2-4 quarts a day.  Drink water before, after and with every meal, this will help prevent overeating. Schedule and eat 5-6 meals a day, 2-3 hours apart, this includes a healthy snack.
  2. Eat protein 4-5 times day; lean chicken breast, turkey, egg whites and white fish.
  3. Eat plenty of vegetables as this will be the majority of your carbohydrates.
  4. NO sugar, salt, flour or fat.  These are nothing but added calories!
  5. Protein Shakes with low or no carbohydrates are the perfect snacks.
  6. Keep track of your daily intake of calories, grams of protein, fat and carbs.  Remember, portion control, portion control, portion control!!  If you have a problem with the amount of portions you should be eating, trying weighing your food on a scale before cooking.
  7. Last but not least…get plenty of rest and recovery time.

This is the perfect meal plan when you’re about 8-10 weeks out from a show or when you’re getting ready to take a strut on the beach!  The timeframe of how long you should follow this plan, all depends on how disciplined and focused you.  Remember, you still have to train and get in your cardio as well every day. 



Give it a try and let me know your results, send me before and after pictures, I would love to hear about it!

Live Fit Live Strong!!
