If you want to achieve your physical appearance goals, protein is the way forward, it packs on the muscle, strips away the fat, and get you to that end result in lightning speed. But only the purest, high quality protein will allow you to achieve those goals. That’s why I’ve put together this quick start guide. Remember, if your aim is to build muscle and get ripped you MUST consume 1 gram of quality protein daily for every pound of body weight you have. Write down this information and stick your notes in a place you’ll see them every day, I recommend your fridge.
The Top Spot – Whey Protein
Whey protein has a much higher absorbent rate than any other source, and this is what you want to be feeding your muscles on a daily basis. If you find that you sometimes over train your muscles and your recovery process takes a little longer than your buddies, try to aim at getting that 1 recommended gram per pound of body weight every day, a University study in Florida found that whey protein dramatically speeds up the recovers process.
If you are lactose intolerant try using whey protein isolate as it contains less lactose.
For every 20-30 grams of whey protein you should also mix in 40-50 grams of carbs and consume before or after training, or better still both. Those carbs will provide you with the energy you need to train and also replace the glycogen from your muscles after training. When your carbs contain a quality source of refined sugars they force the body to release more insulin into your bloodstream, and when this insulin reaches your muscles it allows them to process the protein more efficiently.
Quality protein is vital for the development of the abdominals. After you have finished reading this page check out this article for more information – How Can I Get Abs
And The Silver Medal Goes To – Soya Protein Isolate
Soya Protein contains very little saturated fat for a natural diriritave and some researchers have concluded that it is even as effective as whey protein in regards to building muscle, although more studies will need to be conducted to reach a final conclusion. Soya is also densely packed with rich iron, which can carry o lot more oxygen to the muscles during aerobic exercise.
It’s been speculated recently in the fitness community that soya protein can cause man boobs. But I have never seen any evidence to support these claims so I personally take such theory’s with a pinch of salt. (And you should do your own research, don’t take my opinions as your own)
If you’re keen on your aerobic activities and you want to really feel the effect of having that extra iron in your system, try eating an orange along with your protein shake. It has been proven that vitamin C increases the amount of iron your body absorbs.
