sushi and body builders

[Daniel meneses]

do you think a sushi diet could be appropriate for a body builder looking to gain size? does it contain enough calories and protein to supply your body in a bulking process?

What I see on the odd YouTube video is that a small tray is rarely enough. Bodybuilders can easily eat 20 pieces.

Sushi can be a nice way of adding variety to your meals, but I would not consider eating only sushi, and even less so as part of a healthy diet. Keep in mind that even for the Japanese sushi are an occasional meal - they don't eat only sushi.

If it was only Sushi then that's not a good idea.

sushi is actually not healthy at all unless it is authentic with quality ingredients

what you buy in the store or at a restaurant is cheap bottom feeding fish, lots of soybean hydrogenated oil, and processed garbage

I really like sushi but like @stevesmi said, make sure it's authentic quality sushi.

Ask the waiter what they put in the rolls. A lot of commercial sushi rolls like 'California rolls' are loaded with mayonnaise.

I personally stick with the sushi that is just a piece of fish ontop of a bed of rice. That way you know there are no fillers in it. It's called nigiri

I like sushi but it is not a part of my "regular" diet. I just add it here and there as a cheat meal.
