Initially, the vertical diet was intended for athletes, including bodybuilders<\/a>. Its purpose is to help in intensive muscle mass gain and increase productivity. However, there is a version of the diet adapted to the “average” consumer: it has lower calories and fewer restrictions because to build muscle mass as actively as bodybuilders do, not everyone needs.<\/p>\n

Why is the diet so named? Schematically it is depicted as an inverted letter “T”. The horizontal part is a kind of base consisting of nutritious foods rich in vitamins and minerals. Vertical – proteins and easily digestible carbohydrates. The first saturates the body with everything it needs, and the second – gives a lot of energy, which allows you to train effectively.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thus, the basis of the “horizontal” part of the diet are foods<\/a> rich in various nutrients. These are fruits, vegetables, greens, fish, and eggs. The list of “necessary” products, which must include a diet, includes:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

fresh fruits and berries (especially citrus, kiwi, and cranberries);<\/p>\n

nuts;<\/p>\n

vegetables (carrots and bell peppers – one of the most important);<\/p>\n

yogurt, cheese, kefir;<\/p>\n

spinach;<\/p>\n

whole eggs;<\/p>\n

meat broth (preferably not only from meat but also from bones with cartilage);<\/p>\n

fatty fish (such as salmon).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The “vertical” part consists mainly of meat (in the original diet only red, but the adapted version allows poultry) and carbohydrates – rice, buckwheat, and potatoes (both sweet potatoes<\/a> and ordinary white). Contrary to popular belief, potatoes are not the enemy of a good figure: they are rich in stable starch, which provides the body with energy for a long time and reduces the risk of overeating.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In addition, as in any diet, there are foods that are recommended to avoid. These include cereals, refined vegetable oils, onions and garlic, all kinds of cabbage (including broccoli), added sugar, coffee, and alcohol.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Who is suitable for a vertical diet<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As mentioned above, the vertical<\/a> diet is originally designed for bodybuilders. Even its adapted version is recommended for people with a high level of physical activity. If you are not a professional athlete but attend training regularly, then the diet is quite suitable for you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Build a diet of recommended foods, choosing the appropriate calories (calorie deficit if you want to lose weight, and surplus – if you gain weight). This diet will provide you with energy and increase productivity during training.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If sports appear in your life from time to time, a vertical diet can give the exact opposite results. A large number of easily digestible carbohydrates (without proper exercise) can cause weight gain.<\/p>\n
