8 Essential Foods for Muscle Mass

After writing about my typical day of eating just recently, I realized how much variety and important nutrients I was missing out on. So I did a little research on my favorite site, www.bodybuilding.com, and discovered this article. Here are the 8 essential foods for building lean muscle without the added fat. I think these foods are essential for anyone, not just body builders. I am building a diet plan around these foods as we speak!

1. Egg whites
2. Chicken/ Turkey
3. Fish
4. Beans and Legumes
5. Lean Red Meat
6. Slow-burning Carbs: brown rice, oatmeal, sweet potatoes
7. Water
8. Whey protein
