Can someone look at my diary and tell me if I ate well for breakfast today. I'm trying to build lean muscle without fat gain. Today I'm planning to do 20 minutes of HIIT on the treadmill, and a 45 minute strength training session.

Is this a good start to my day?

    Your diary is closed.

    Are you in a surplus? You cannot build muscle without getting a bit of fat. It's an inevitable fact of bulking. That said, getting 1g per pound of lean body mass in protein is key to build muscle, getting a proper amount of fats for overall health, and carbs for fuel. Gaining slow will minimize fat gain but it will not eliminate it from happening. Fat is not the enemy though. Your body needs a certain amount to function properly. Weightlifting and gaining is the best investment of my time I've ever made both for body composition and strength gains.
