Protein is the building block of muscles. When we don’t get enough of it, we become weak and frail. In this article, I’ll discuss why women need more protein, and how to get it.
As we age, we start to lose muscle. If we are not involved in a strength training program, we lose even more.
Most women have spent years dieting. This spares precious muscle tissue and can make you look flabbier.
Protein is the building block that is in every cell. Your bones, teeth, skin, cartilage, and muscles depend on protein to survive.
If you are looking to raise your metabolic rate, look strong and sexy, this is the key.
Protein can come from animal or plant sources.
Eggs and whey-based protein powders are excellent sources. Eggs are easy to eat. Whey Based Protein powders can be mixed with water and are immediately absorbed. Post-workout smoothies are a mainstay in most fit people’s lives!
Other great sources are grass-fed bison, pasture-raised chicken, and wild-caught fish.
We need about 1 gram of protein per lean pound of body weight daily.
When we strength train, we break down our muscles. It is up to us to repair those muscle fibers so that we get stronger.
BioTrust grass-fed whey-based protein is free from fillers. It is low-carb and nonGMO. It tastes great and will curb your cravings as you lose weight and keep it off!
Dieting spares muscle tissue. So does too much cardio!
Most women do cardio and wonder why they cannot lose weight or why their buns are saggy!
I’ve coached women to fit, lean, strong bodies for 20+ years. Most of us are deficient in protein and suffer.
Protein keeps you full and wards off cravings.
The chemical make-up of protein is essential to staying lean and looking young.
Here is a great way to start your day and ward off cravings while supplying the amino acids you need to build lean muscle.
Start each day with a smoothie that is made of one cup of flax or coconut milk. Next, I add in 1/4 cup berries, and 2 tbsp. mixed flax and chia seeds. Then, I add a handful of baby spinach for more benefits. Then I add one or two scoops of Protein Powder (Vanilla!).
Do you want to look younger, leaner and stronger? Fitter, sexier and never have to count a single calorie?
Bigger muscles burn more calories…even while at rest. Start a strength training program now, no matter your age. Today is the day to prepare your body for the future.
