Want To Build Muscle? Eat Your Beef!
Beef is an awesome bodybuilding food.
If you are eating MANS style to build muscle, beef is an absolute must.
But do you know the different cuts of beef?
Do you know the nutritional value of these cuts?
With this information you’ll be able to make better choices. Let’s have a look at where each cut comes from.
What’s The Beef?
Now we know where the cuts come from, let’s look at the nutritional vale of each of them (by the way, beef contains no carbs).
So what cuts are best then?
Well, if you embrace the low-carb (higher fat) approach to building muscle, the top choices are
* Sirloin
* Chuck
With Sirloin being my personal favorite.
For people looking a high-protein, low-fat option, the honors definitely go to
* Round
It’s the highest in protein and also the lowest in fat.
If you would like to know how a higher fat approach is great for building muscle please see my article on the MuscleHack Anabolic Nutritional Strategy. I’m constantly getting emails from people who are seeing great, visible gains from this coupled with my workout plan.

I dig the bull drawing. Woo Hoo.
We almost always stick to round and sirloin. And my husband can divvy up 4 ounce portions without a food scale now. Practice, practice, practice.

Thanks Carol!
I’m pretty good at that myself. I can even measure protein powder almost to the gram without scales now
