I'm going to share with you tips for women in bodybuilding. This should help you overcome the disadvantages all women have with this sport and let you take advantage of all the natural things you can.
The first tip I could give you is the way you workout. For some odd reason people think the length (or time) of a workout is very important. You need to workout for so long or you're just not getting a good workout. This couldn't be more wrong. Your body only has enough nutrients and energy to have a workout at around 45 minutes. Anything past that time is detrimental to the process of building muscle. I've found having shorter works with a much higher intensity, yield a greater result for muscle growth.
The next tip I'm going to give you is on the amount of protein you eat. You are probably not enough protein in the first place because the vast majority of women I talk to don't. You need to be eating at a minimum 1.3g/lb. That means if you're 120lbs, you eat 156g of protein. The best way to eat this protein is to divide it up into small portions throughout the day. The best formula is breakfast, mid morning snack, lunch, mid afternoon snack, dinner, and evening snack. That works out to 26g per meal.
Lastly, you need to increase the amount of water you're going to drink. Water makes up the vast majority of your body and it used for a place to dump toxins. As you replenish your body, the old water goes out, releasing toxins. The new clean water replaces the old. It also helps with digestion, especially with the amount of protein you're going to start eating.
