While doing push ups and build those muscles we need to consider nutrition in other to achieve those desired muscles, certain foods can help build our muscles, replenish nutrients, avoid fatigue, recover from training and maintaining their energy levels.
I will list some foods that my doctor listed for me that can help while doing this push up in other to achieve our goals properly.
This food I'm about to list contains protein to help someone build muscle. and they are.
Turkey
A cup of chopped turkey contains 37.23 g of protein, while a turkey drumstick contains nearly 27 g of protein.
Like chicken, turkey is a low fat protein source that is adaptable to different meals and recipes.
Why Turkey and chicken rather than pork, beef, lamb, organ meats and/or other kinds of meats - including fatty meats? What is wrong with fatty meats? Do you believe that low fat diets actually are a good thing? (especially when it comes to animal fats?)
Yeah, I can understand avoiding some kinds of fats, such as various kinds of artificially created fats like seed oils. but being steered towards turkey and chicken as the main nutritious land-based meats seems problematic.
Cottage cheese
Part-skimmed cottage cheese contains 14 g of protein per half-cup.
Cottage cheese is also rich in calcium for healthy bones.
Why skimmed? Why not full fat and/or raw? Yeah, there is a preference for processed.. and yeah, there is a propaganda against fats.
Salmon
A 227 g salmon steak contains 58.5 gTrusted Source of protein.
Salmon also contains omega-3 fatty acids, which have health benefits, including preventing muscle loss in older adults.
I agree that salmon is probably pretty good, especially if referring to natural fats that it has.. yet is there a problem with other fish and seafood? yes we have some potential mercury problems and even farm raised with some of the various kinds of seafood.
Milk
Skimmed or 1% fat milk contains 8 g of protein per 8 oz, and high protein milk contains 13 g of protein per 8 oz.
As long as individuals tolerate milk, it can be a healthy choice to boost protein and hydration after exercise.
Milk also contains calcium which people require for healthy bones.
again, why low fat? why processed? Why not raw? I know raw has been vilified all around the world, and I am rarely consuming raw dairy based on the same kinds of difficulties in obtaining it..
Eggs
A boiled or poached egg contains 6.28 g of protein.
Eggs contain the amino acid leucine, which research indicates is essential for muscle synthesis.
Eggs are also a suitable source of B vitamins that people need to produce energy.
At least you seem to be referring to the whole egg.. I am not sure if it needs to be cooked or how it is cooked matters so long as it is the whole egg, and some folks get into the egg white nonsense.. again issues with the yolk which is probably the most nutritious part of the egg... .. but yeah, probably in the end eating both the yolk and the eggwhites together would be a good thing no matter how that is accomplished.. and probably grass, bug fed and naturally free range chickens have better eggs than grain fed chickens, though surely all eggs likely have decent nutritiousness.
Chicken
A medium chicken breast without skin weighing 120 g contains 35.5 g of protein.
Chicken without the skin is a low fat protein source that someone can easily add to different meals and recipes.
Again. look at your nonsense about a preference for low fat.. including which parts of the chicken that you are choosing.. surely there is some bad propaganda weaved into this advice that you are giving and relying on a supposed expert of a doctor, which surely I would question doctors in terms of their abilities to give nutritional advice, especially if they are getting schooled under some of the nonsense standards of care ideas around fat phobias and the various wrongness angles of the heart-lipid hypothesis that involve recommending against saturated fats and pushing artificial/substitute fats instead of acknowledging the nutritional benefits/advantages in various natural fats (including animal fats and saturated fats that are included in those) - including attempting to suggest that there is healthiness that can be found in processed foods - including overly allowance of carbs to substitute for meats and the pumping of various plant based proteins that sometimes substitute for meats, which likely has some of its own problems with the various plant-based protein products.. around soy, corn, wheat and perhaps some other attempts at protein substitutes and other ways to fill foods with inferior ingredients in the name of science (and surely profits too).
Now I will love us to please eat healthy especially now we are part of this pushups challenge, we all need a variety of protein sources and amino acids to build muscle during training, so please let's all encourage ourselves every day.
#eatinghealthy.

Yes.. eating "healthy" is a good idea; however, if you are spouting out wrong talking points about what is healthy, then that may well end up NOT being so great, even though there could be some truth that some aspects of your low fat baloney might still have some advantages at least if there could be some agreement that eating natural foods is likely more healthy than processed foods or that there are several advantages to stay away from complex carbohydrates (referring to high sugar products).. but still you seem to be lacking in some of your attempt to figure out what is the difference between healthy and not healthy and just spewing out some standards of care talking points that have a lot of disinformation within them that seem to be linked to wrong-thinking about the heart-lipid hypothesis and perhaps an overly allowance of processed foods.. even though your specific recommendations do not seems to specifically go down that road..
Thank you so much for all your corrections but those things I wrote down was a list given to me by a health professional who studied in the university in other to get health knowledge, and I also did some research to be very sure about the list he gave me and low and behold it was correct so I don't know were you are getting your information from, unless you are a health professional I will advise you stop criticizing some of the foods in the list.
I just called my friend who also studied nutrition and I showed him the list and he approved it also, so it will be best you give tell us your source that told you some of those food listed are not good for the purpose I mentioned.
