Proper nutrition is a basic prerequisite for maintaining a healthy body as well as improving and sustaining physical performance. Additionally, achieving and maintaining a satisfactory body composition, which plays greatly in getting a shapely derriere, is a result of combining sound nutritional and training habits.
Required caloric intake varies from athlete-to-athlete. Generally speaking, a 120 pound athlete requires approximately 2,200-2,500 calories daily. Approximately 55-65% of these calories should come from carbohydrates, 20-30% from fat, and 15-20% from protein.
I am neither a dietitian nor certified nutritional specialist so I will not be prescribing a daily eating plan or diet. What I will provide is a layman's guide of what not to eat in your efforts to maintain your health and fitness and develop the athletic butt you desire.
