5 Best fruits for bodybuilding you must include in your daily diet:

1. Kiwi
Did you know the Kiwi bird is a direct descendant of the Tyrannosaurus Rex? It’s crazy, but before we go off track, we’re here to discuss the fruit. The fruit is known to be one of the best fat burning natural sources out there. Kiwis contain more vitamin-C than any other fruit. Vitamin-C is the most potent antioxidant which helps remove fat off your body. The vitamin is required for proper oxidation of fatty acids which makes them far easier to work off. So it’s time to shed that flab and look fab!
2. Banana
Super dense in carbs, bananas help restock muscle glycogen levels and put a halt to muscle breakdown. Not enough? They’re also a fabulous source of potassium, an electrolyte necessary for proper muscular contraction. We suggest starting the day right with a banana milkshake at breakfast or before a workout. Yep, it’s time to go bananas!
3. Watermelon
This juicy fruit specializes in the production of nitric oxide (NO). Bodybuilders rave about NO since it improves blood flow to muscles, allowing for greater delivery of recovery nutrients and anabolic compounds. Watermelons are also a good hydrating fruit. So what are you waiting for? It’s time feel like melon bucks.
4. Blueberries
Blueberries are power-packed super-fruits that are primed for muscle growth. They contain a huge number of anti-oxidants which help in gaining muscle mass. Why are antioxidants important? They protect against ‘free-radical’ attacks, which we are vulnerable to after weight training. The key to building muscle and strength is recovery – The faster we can recover the faster we can grow muscle. So opt for our blueberry packed Choose Life bundle and get poppin’!
5. Avoca-Do Hit The Gym
Avocadoes are the ultimate muscle building fruits as they are loaded with potassium and nutritionally dense with vitamins and minerals. Even better, they are extremely high on dietary fiber, which has been known to help whittle down the fat. An avocado a day promises to keep the flab at bay!
