JUNK FOOD! We all know is the best thing in the world.. Not for all but for majority of us.
I, myself, have been a fan of Pizza especially the thick base ones! It is like food from heaven for me. However, since I started out my career in fitness; the gym I use to got to, they had this motto that “Junk food” is not for people who train. Junk food is not for people who have fitness goals to achieve. It is not for HUMANS!
It made sense to me since JUNK FOOD has plenty of EXTRAA calories which our body does not require. On the other hand, the fitness centre also had a free soft drink machine set up in one corner… Now that didn’t make any sense to me. It made me question if these experienced people were right about JUNK FOOD?
I started my research on this; I had to try this on my body and then on other body types. I did not gain any weight after eating JUNK FOOD or got any kind of bloated feeling in my stomach. I should tell you this; it felt GREAT doing this research as I got to eat the thick crust pizza multiple times!’
It is very IMPORTANT that I should tell you how it did not effect my body. Normally, it would make a difference in your performance, your health and you will feel BLOATED! Even during workouts, we know if we do exercise in proper tempo and movement, we will get results! We follow the same scenario here!
PLEASE NOTE, before you order your favourite junk meal, let’s say a KFC zinger burger, make sure to order a bottle of normal water. Drink it before your burger arrives. Do not drink it all at once, takes small sips and drink at least 250ML upto 750ML. Secondly, do not order a soft drink with the burger. You are here to enjoy the burger not a soft drink! When your burger arrives; take your time to finish it, don’t go CRAZY on it! Have small bites, CHEW IT properly, just think it as the last burger you are gonna eat! Lastly, when you are done eating, do not drink any liquid, not even water for at least half-hour. We like to fill our belly with water after we finish our meals, DONT!
If we think about it, what does junk food contain? Flour? Sauces? Cheese? Ultimately it is food which our body need, our body require. Obviously we cant feed on the same thing every day, our body does not function that way. However, we can keep ourselves happy and SATISFIED with our cravings!
