Collection: Protein

Protein is the most important building block of our body, significantly determining how healthy, muscular, and capable we are. However, protein is not only important for bodybuilders to build muscle; every person needs protein because without protein, no life would be possible.

The average recommendation for athletes is about 2 g of protein per kilogram of body weight to build muscle. An 80 kg athlete would therefore need about 160 g of protein per day for muscle building. It is not uncommon for highly advanced athletes and competitive athletes to use 3 to 4 g of protein per kilogram of body weight and achieve excellent results in terms of muscle growth and performance. If the required daily protein intake cannot be met through normal nutrition, a high-quality protein concentrate is recommended as a supplement. The total amount of protein should ideally be evenly distributed over 4 to 5 meals per day.
