Bodybuilding requires the alteration of the body which is carried out by intensive muscle hypertrophy. The bodybuilders frequently participate in bodybuilding competition where their body is displayed to show off their physique to a panel of judges so that can compare and assess their body. The bodybuilder exposes the muscles by making the physique and muscles stand out by tanning the body with oils and fat loss. Weight training is one of the ways with which bodybuilding is undertaken. This method is known also as microtrauma. Micro-tears occur in the muscles when the bodybuilder undertakes weight training. The repair of these micro-tears leads to the build up or growth of muscles. The bodybuilder experiences initially soreness which decreases and disappears over time with regular workouts. More protein and energy is required for muscle growth by the bodybuilder while doing workouts. Repair and growth of muscles require more calories. They have to rely on specialized diets for the required food energy. This food energy is provided with a diet consisting of protein, carbohydrates and fats as per the needs of the bodybuilder.
