Want to build muscle? Not sure what to have for breakfast? This is my go-to breakfast to build muscle. Lots of protein and adequate carbs make it perfect before/after a workout and even on a rest day.
A staple of all diets focused on building muscle should be egg whites. The whites are the part that contains the protein, whereas the yolks just contain fat. This is why I have a mix of both.
1 cup egg whites 1 whole egg
My breakfast also contains oats. Plain rolled oats with almond milk. I personally use almond milk because normal cows milk makes me feel bloated and this is not how I want to start my day. Occasionally I will put a protein bar in my oats for extra energy if I have a big day ahead or a tough workout ahead. Otherwise, just some fruit, usually raspberries or blueberries.
1/2 cup rolled oats 1/2 almond milk 1/4 cup raspberries/blueberries
So this is my go-to breakfast, it’s really easy to make and tastes good, all whilst hitting my macros needed for my first meal of the day.
