Truth hurts at times, but we are here to tell you what you want to hear. In general, most people under consume the amount of protein they need to build muscle tissue, enhance recovery, and lose fat.

We recommend consuming 0.8-1g of protein per pound of bodyweight per day.

You may be asking, why?

Here’s a few solid reasons:

1️⃣ Build Muscle: Protein is the building block of muscle tissue. When you work out, especially during strength training, your muscles experience tiny tears. Consuming enough protein helps repair these tears, leading to muscle growth and increased strength. By aiming for 0.8g-1g of protein per pound of bodyweight, you’re giving your body the necessary fuel to build and maintain muscle mass effectively.

2️⃣ Boost Recovery: After a tough workout, your muscles need to recover. Protein plays a crucial role in this process by repairing muscle fibers and reducing muscle soreness. Proper recovery is essential for making progress and avoiding injuries. By ensuring you get enough protein, you’re helping your body recover faster, so you can get back to your workouts feeling strong and ready.

3️⃣ Stay Satiated: Protein isn’t just for muscles; it also helps keep you full and satisfied. Including an adequate amount of protein in your diet can help with weight management by reducing hunger and preventing overeating. This is especially important if you’re trying to lose weight or maintain a healthy body composition while reaching your fitness goals.
