Protein and muscle growth

Protein supports muscle growth and repair.

It provides amino acids for muscle synthesis, aiding in recovery.

Consuming enough protein is crucial.

Timing matters.

Protein after exercise optimizes muscle synthesis during the post-workout window when muscles are receptive.

Recommended protein intake varies based on weight, activity, and goals.

Typically, 0.8-1.2g/kg is advised for regular exercisers.

A balanced diet is important.

Carbs fuel workouts, fats support health.

Exercise is vital for muscle growth.

Resistance training stimulates adaptation.

Understanding protein, exercise, and muscle growth guides diet and exercise choices.

Adequate protein, exercise, and recovery optimize muscle and fitness.
