Why Eat Protein After a Workout?

Protein is the key to strong, healthy muscles and is absolutely necessary for our everyday diet. Protein is essential for helping us grow, maintain a healthy immune system, keep our heart functioning properly and to help build and repair lean muscle. Protein is needed for cells to be able to carry out their required functions. After a strong workout, muscles start to break down and need time to repair, heal and rebuild. Lean protein is essential in this part of this process as it helps repair and build lean muscle mass. Protein also helps us feel full for longer periods of time, meaning we tend to eat less and not overeat. Those who are trying to lose fat while gaining muscle should keep this in mind and make a point to eat protein soon after the workout.

Eating protein after a workout helps build and repair existing muscle that has been exhausted from the workout. It is that simple. Any person who wants to gain lean muscle and lose body fat (which, as we all know, will help speed up their metabolism) should look into eating a meal with protein soon after the workout and consider eating some type of protein 5 times a day. Whey protein, in particular, gets digested very quickly which means that it immediately starts repairing and building muscles. Ideally, the Amino Diet whey protein shake or some meal that is high in protein should be consumed within 45 minutes of completing a workout.

The Amino Diet whey protein shake comes in chocolate or vanilla and tastes amazing. It’s nothing like the old “chaulky” tasting protein from the past, the chocolate flavor actually tastes like chocolate milk. It is great tasting, mixes instantly and free of all artificial sweeteners and colors. Perfect post workout, all natural protein supplement.
