Example diet for muscle definition in body building

it is one of the 4 essential components of body-building (volume, definition, proportions and symmetry).
Starting from the assumption that there can be no definition without a minimum of mass, it is necessary to specify that, for some, muscle cutting represents a particularly painful phase of the year, while for others it is less problematic. In summary, as for hypertrophy, muscle definition is an extremely subjective characteristic that basically depends on: nutrition, genetics, family habits and type of overall physical activity.

well developed and no particular tendency to lose weight or increase in body fat, which, to compensate for the appetite triggered by a very active work, decides to start an aerobic exercise protocol aimed at muscle definition. Referring to a "similar eventuality, the cardinal principles of the diet for the definition are:

1. Total caloric intake slightly lower than that of the normocaloric diet (-10%)
2. Alternatively, total caloric intake equal to normocaloric, which does NOT take into account the additional aerobic exercise
3. Nutritional breakdown of the balanced or slightly high-protein diet (percentage increase in proteins, NOT absolute, with 25% lipids and the rest carbohydrates - see example protein diet for weight loss)
4. Energy breakdown of meals into at least 5-6 meals per day
5. Choice of foods low in saturated fat and cholesterol, as well as products with a low glycemic index
6. Moderation of the glycemic load at meals
7. Elimination of alcohol.

: these are cocktail of stimulants that should exert a lipolytic effect on adipose tissue and increase the basal metabolism (questionable, at least as regards the "increase in energy expenditure!)

Branched amino acids: they are chosen on the basis of caloric restriction or on the more or less catabolic tendency of the subject in question; for those who tend to easily lose muscle mass during cutting, use BCAA in doses of about 1g per 10kg of weight (physiological or real if with fat mass ≤15%) to be consumed on training days (divided into before, during and after the session) could be quite useful.
