We make a lot of food choices in our daily lives. Some of us are great at making healthy choices based on our individual needs. If you are trying to build muscle and strength here are some choices that should take the guesswork out of the equation. Here are your smart choices.
Almonds are absolutely wonderful as long as you keep the amount to 20 and under. The L-arginine in almonds can help you burn more fat and carbs in the gym. A quarter-cup of raw almonds has eight grams of protein and is high in magnesium, which boosts energy and endurance.
Bananas are an excellent source of glucose (for quick energy) and high in potassium (which can prevent cramping.) A medium banana has around 36 grams of good carbs. The carbs are slowly released in your body. It would be an obvious choice for pre workout snack.
Here is one you might find surprising, cottage cheese is an excellent option. It’s very rich in protein, and it’s perfect for muscle building and maintenance because it also contains calcium and vitamin B12.
A number of studies have shown that consuming beets can improve your athletic performance. Subjects who drank beet juice experienced a 38 percent increase in blood flow to muscles

I think the banana is one of the most underrated foods because it is so common. It has immense health benefits.
My eating habit is okay. So I don’t need to change anything.
I eat it all. Fruits and vegetables are on my table every day. I just ate tangerine and banana. With lunch, like a salad, I eat cabbage, carrot and beetroot. Also, I bake peppers, I peel them, and spice them with onion, oil, vinegar and salt. This salad is great for cold, winter days.
Very helpful information here. I eat almonds, but have been slacking lately, but will make sure I buy them on my next shopping day.
