Sculpting your body into a lean-muscled physique requires not only regular exercise but a diet conducive to such results.

By eating a varied diet and remaining focused on your goals, you will get the best results from a body sculpting diet. Healthful foods, portion control and supplements will help sculpt your body.

Lean Proteins

Consumption of lean proteins provides the body with proper fuel and supports muscle growth and health. According to Intense-Workout.com, egg whites, salmon, turkey and chicken are good dietary choices and optimal sources of protein for your body.

Fat-Burning Foods

Fat-burning foods should be incorporated into your diet to help melt off fat and allow the development of healthy lean muscle to show. According to NYDailyNews.com, consuming skim milk, oats, whole grain cereals and various chili peppers all help the body burn off unwanted fat.

Supplements & Portion Control

Taking nutritional supplements helps your body get the adequate amounts of minerals and vitamins it needs while speeding up muscle recovery. When following a body sculpting diet, faster results can be achieved if you eat five to six small healthful meals a day, combining lean proteins, whole grains, fruits and vegetables.
