Get more protein in your body.” Protein is known to be an essential nutrient you have to consume every day. This muscle-builder is a must-have for anyone who wants to get fit, grow more muscles and get a shredded physique. But even if it’s healthy, there are many common mistakes of consuming it. Avoid these blunders and you’ll reach your bodybuilding, fitness and weight loss goals faster.
1. Eating Proteins from The Same Source
A “complete protein” is one that offers all 9 essential amino acids. Getting your protein from various sources will ensure you’re getting all amino acids. Plus, you’ll get the fiber,vitamins and other nutrients that grow muscle, speed up weight loss and prevent disease. Aim to get these protein-loaded foods into your system daily.
2. Getting Your Protein in Only 1 Meal
Don’t limit proteins to a single meal. As much as you’ve got to eat several times a day to sustain a high metabolism, you also have to ensure those meals and snacks contain protein. So don’t wait until dinner or after your exercise to take it all in one swoop. Distribute your protein consumption to absorb it all and to keep you energized throughout the day.
"Note: Though protein is important, consuming too much of it (especially post-workout) is bad as your body will accumulate the excess as fat."
3. Munching On Protein Bars
Protein bars may be convenient and a healthy snack alternative, but many aren’t much better than candy bars. Do your homework and read the labels.
4. Buying ANY Protein Supplement
Don’t just grab any protein powder you see. Do your research and stay away from those packed with sweeteners. A quality whey like this one is a great choice.
Now that you know how to take your protein better, you’ll be able to take this nutrient’s benefits to the next level!
Here's to a new you!
