I’m not really sure what has changed in our culture, but breakfast used to be eaten by people. It seems like most people don’t have the time anymore and skip it. I never really understood how people could skip. I was brought up on breakfast and I just need it. It is the most important bodybuilding meal that you should be eating, so I really feel the need to help persuade you to start eating it.

The first thing you have to recognize is that you have gone a period of over 8 hours without eating when you get up in the morning. As a bodybuilder, you should recognize how important it is to get food in your body ever few hours, so your muscles have nutrients to repair muscle tissue with. After a long night of sleep, your body is just dying for something to come into the body. It is very important to start eating breakfast. This should be reason enough as a bodybuilder.

The other reason is that it helps to jump start your metabolism for the day. Basically your body slows down when you sleep, so essentially you have 8 hours of slow time. You get up and your body remains slow because it doesn’t have any hard digestive work to do. A dead metabolism is just a waste of potential. EAT!!

And breakfast typically allows you to be much more liberal with your food. I typically eat 4 egg white, 1 yolk omlette with cheese, with two pieces of toast with jam on them and a cup of orange juice. It’s a good meal.
