Choose Lean Sources of Protein

Some protein sources are very high fat (bacon) while others are nearly fat-free and low in calories (egg whites). Some of the best choices include skinless chicken breast, turkey breast, egg whites, albacore tuna, halibut and top round meat. You can also include whey protein powders into your diet which provide a very low calorie protein source and tastes great when mixed with a small amount of fruit and blended as a smoothie. Here is a list of lean protein foods to include in your muscle building plan:

Chicken breast (skin removed)
Turkey breast (skin removed)
Egg whites
Fish fillet (flounder, sole, scrod, cod, etc.)
Shellfish (clams, lobster, scallop, shrimp)
Lean beef (top round)
Tuna (albacore canned in water)
Non-fat cottage cheese
Beans (black beans, kidney, chick peas or lentils)
Whey protein powder
