Diet for strength & recovery

[CharisLouca]

.. not to lose/gain weight specifically.

What are some guidelines for recovering well and building strength, with regards to diet?

Depends on how you handle certain foods.

For me, a lot of carbs are not really necessary on a daily basis. I'd venture to guess that 3-4 days a week I'm eating 50-60g or less.
Fats and me get along well. Especially saturated fats from beef, pork and chicken. I also chug coffee like it's going out of style.
I eat meat, eggs, almond milk, casein, nuts, various vegetables and some fruit, so basically paleo, I guess. I can easily maintain my weight with this kind of diet.

This may not work for you.

From what I hear, Abadjiev recommends junk food.
I did this for about 3.5 weeks to gain muscular BW and while it worked, I felt kind of gross most of the time. Eating fast food for every meal 3-5 times a week didn't do my digestive system any favors. I think Glenn said that Jon eats a lot of fast food, as well.

Satisfy micrunutrients (vitamins, minerals) requirements, sleep enough (powernap when you can too) and eat enough.

In regards to macronutrients (protein, carbs, fat) it works different for different people. When I'm in "balance" I prefer high protein/high carb/moderate fat, works best for me. Make sure most of the fat you get is healthy fat, not just because of the "healthy" but because it helps with usage of vitamins and minerals.

If you live in a place with limited sun exposure then vitamin D supplement can be very good not only for training but also for general well being.

I think getting plenty of fats from fatty beef/lamb stews, fish, steak etc is important for a weightlifter, both to optimise testosterone and keep the joints feeling good. That's pure bro science by the way, don't ask me to back it up!

Healthy diet and regular exercise are one of the most common way that help you loss your weight and become healthier.

Depends what you eat. And you gain fat on your body with an increase in calories..not by eating a lot of actual 'fat' you see on the nutrition label.

Do daily exercise, eat healthy food and most of all control yourself. These are some of the things you have to remember. For technical way to loss fat visit the link below.

The best way for gaining strength is healthy diet and daily meditation to calm and strengthen the mind. You can also join the gym session.

I'll suggest you to depend on natural ways, take healthy diet (specially fruits) and do regular exercises. It'll keep you healthy for a long without any side effect.
