KO’s Diet Tips:
According to him, for achieving the desired look, you need to focus more on nutrition part than training. Only 30% depends on the training part and the remaining 70% depends entirely on your diet. Without following proper diet you can’t achieve your fitness goal.
Balance of Protein & Carbohydrate:
Your diet should be rich in protein and carbohydrates. For getting all essential nutrients it is recommended to include more veggies, fruits and nuts. The trick lies in eating less carbs and high protein diet.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and should not be ignored. You may add egg whites for protein, which is a BCCA rich food.
Body Mechanism :
In order to cope up with intense workout routine you should fuel your body. The lack of nutrients, protein etc. may lead to injury. A nutritious post workout meal is a must, that is a protein shake.
You don’t need to cut carbs entirely to achieve that lean and muscular look. Everybody loves carbs in country like ours, especially rice. You can take them early in the day in breakfast or lunch, so you will get whole day to burn those calories. It is important not to take carbs after 7 pm in the evening.
Importance of drinking Water:
