The Protein Review

I’m such an impulse buyer that I bought these ebooks IMMEDIATELY after seeing the websites:

For the purpose of building muscle mass I think the goal should be a general recommendation of 70-120 grams of protein per day, and this should be an average intake. As long as you average around 70-120 grams per day you could be lower on some days and slightly higher on others, but muscle growth will still occur.

Probably the very best recommendations I can give you are to eat a variety of protein containing foods. As long as you are eating meals with a wide variety of foods you should be able to reach the 70-120 gram target very easily

I’m talking about ALL sources of protein. Whether it’s a chocolate flavoured whey protein shake or a skinless chicken breast, neither one seems to be overly effective at causing you to build massive amounts of muscle mass.

These results lead me to say that protein still has a role in everyone’s nutrition plan, and is an essential nutrient that is obviously important for building and repairing muscles.

Well, first up I’m going to run a series of posts taken from the ebook How Much Protein? by Brad Pilon. The post will give you an idea of what’s in the book and an insight into the discoveries that Brad Pilon has made while researching this topic. It’s pretty interesting and you will learn something new about how to approach your diet and training…. without driving yourself nuts!

“That guy” I was talking about is Brad Pilon and his ebook How Much Protein will challenge everything you thought you knew about protein supplements. Brad shows that there is no evidence to suggest that protein powder is anabolic.

Even a champion bodybuilder, with all the amazing genetic potential and anabolic steroid abuse, still does not have anywhere near ten times the muscle of an extremely skinny Olympic long distance runner.

It’s such a murky industry, all this diet and exercise stuff. Especially on the internet. Every crackpot has some stupid idea or a variation on an old theme. I really feel for people starting out not knowing who to trust or what to believe.
