Cheating is a reality to any person that follows a diet. You have to make sure that you’re in line, but you also have to be realistic. If you hold out on cravings, you’re eventually going to give in and that usually means it is pretty bad. I’m talking about that point where you fall off the wagon for a week or two. It usually happens at a weak moment.

Controlled cheating is used, so you give into your cravings in a position that you control. There is a few reasons for this, but it is mainly to prevent those off the wagon binges that last for weeks.

Fulfill Cravings

When you give into a craving at a controlled time, it just makes it a lot easier to deal with. It takes away stress that is associated with the diet and it makes it all easier.

Psychological Exit

What your mind does in those weak moments that result in cheating is that it tries really hard to rationalize making the bad choice. When you have your diet setup to have a cheat day every Sunday, that gives your mind an exit. So when you’re staring at something you want and you’re just about to there to eat it, your mind has an exit that says “Don’t have it, wait until your cheat day.” By the time that rolls around you won’t be at the low.

Good Cheats

Not all good food is bad. There has to be something out there that really isn’t that bad for you, that you can eat. You’d be surprised if you really look. I love milk shakes, so I sometimes have them after I workout with my whey protein. Just because it comes after a workout, it isn’t that big of a deal and it helps me with my cravings.

I wanted to take a little time to discuss eggs and why I think it is the best protein you can get. Eggs really do get a bad rap. There is a lot of misinformation out there about cholesterol and other things. It almost seems like a conspiracy.

Eggs breakdown like this…

Protein = 7g
Carbohydrates = 0g
Fat = 5g

It’s a pretty good breakdown and that 5g of fat is extremely good for you. It contains the cholesterol that is good for you. The kind that will actually lower your “bad” cholesterol levels.

Also, the egg white is an extremely good and pure form of protein. The white contains around 5g of protein and I usually have a lot of egg whites when I’m cutting the fat off my body.

In my opinion, eggs are the highest quality of protein that is actually real food. It is also the cheapest amount of protein you can get (for real food - not whey). Economically it makes sense and for the health of your body it makes sense.

So if you’re one of these people that are on the fence about eggs or have been mislead by the misinformation, than it is time for you to start eating eggs because it is the ultimate protein. Eat up!

I’m going to talk to you about cutting the fat efficiently so you can start getting ripped. Bodybuilding is a cyclical process that involves bulking and cutting. When we see bodybuilders at competitions, they’re pretty much at the lowest body fat percentage they’ll ever be at. It’s not healthy, nor is it good for building muscle at that body fat percentage. When your body fat percentage is up, you are more able to put on muscle at a much faster pace. Hence is why the bulk cycle was created.

Cutting is the process of taking off fat while leaving as much muscle as possible. There is a few reason why a person would want to do this. The first is that you’ve been bulking for a while and you need to get rid of some of the fat. The other reason is that you have a competition coming up, so you need to cut to the optimal body fat percentage by the time you’re set to compete.

I’ve got this down to a practical science, so it’s pretty easy as long as you have everything else going fine. You don’t have to change your routine at the gym at all. You change your diet nothing else. If you need to, you can add in a little HIIT, but changing your diet is sufficient.

You’ll want to eat 500 calories less below your maintenance everyday. This works out to roughly 3500 calories, which equals about 1lb of fat. To make sure the fat on your body is targeted, rather than your muscle you have to have a good breakdown on food. I typically eat 50% protein, 30% carbs and 20% fat. That gives me a good balance and allows my body to target mainly fat to make up the difference in lost calories.

I’m going to share with you some of my female bodybuilding diet tips. These diet tips should help you at better achieving your female bodybuilding goals.

The first tip I’ll share with you will help maximize your muscle growth while you sleep. A lot of trainers will tell you that you should get up halfway through your sleep and have a protein shake, but I think that is detrimental. You can get protein nutrition throughout the night by eating a combination of protein and fat before bed. Fat slows down the digestive process allowing you to have protein in your system longer.

My next tip is to help you get over astigmatism about eating fat. Fat is god for you and plays a vital role in your body. “Low fat diets” are not healthy. It’s a marketing technique to make you associate “dietary fat” with the “fat” on your body. They’re completely unrelated. Not eating fat over a long enough period will cause your hair to fall out, your skin to get bad, etc. Dietary fat has a place in your diet.

My last tip is that you need to start eating small meals more often. After every 2-3hrs. There is a few reasons for this. The most obvious is that you need a constant flow of nutrients into the body to repair muscle tissue. There is  no way to escape this. You need to be  eating every few hours to achieve this. Also, this type of eating will boost your metabolism.

These are my female bodybuilding diet tips and they should serve you well as you train. If you’d like to get expert advice on this topic, you should check out Iron Dolls Female Bodybuilding Book.
