If you are looking for figure competition diet plans to help you win your figure competition then this article is perfect for you.
So you are training for your fitness figure competition and want to learn what kind of competition diet is right for you. Here's a sample diet plan that can help you reach your dieting goals.
6.30am - Breakfast
5/6 egg whites and 2/3 whole eggs with 2 slices of wheat toast or oatmeal.
10 am - Snack
Non fat yogurt and fruit or protein drink.
12 noon - Lunch
50 - 60 gms protein, 1/2 cup of green veggies, 1/2 green beans.
3 pm - Snack
Protein drink or dozen almonds.
6 pm - Dinner
6 oz Protein from fish or poultry. 1/2 cup of spinach and 1/2 yams.
9 pm - Snack
4 oz Protein Drink
Right before the figure contest date you should aim for about 1,700 calories per day on average. The carb range should be 160-180 per day and ideally you should get them from yams. For great results you should switch your carb source 3 days before your competition date. Try going from yams to red potatoes for example. Brown rice is also a good source. As for protein you should try to eat top sirloin steak or flank steak, VPX zero carb protein, and chicken on occasion mixing up the source every now and then.
If you want to maintain a lean body fat and still make gains, your calories count needs to be 300-250 more than they were while you were dieting.
You should try to manipulate your carb primarily, and throw in some dietary fats as well every now and then. Your intake can change from 175g protein/100g carbs/25g fat during the season to 150g protein/150g carbs/35g fat during the off-season. You may need to try several different plans to see what feels the best for you.
Don't cheat! As much as you may crave for a cheat meal fight the temptation. If you rarely cheat, you will be able to consume more calories from clean foods and still stay lean. If you must cheat then cheat no more than once per 2 weeks, and not going crazy on those cheats. By not going crazy, I mean eating 3-4 slices of pizza instead of 8 plus breadsticks!
