Do you eat enough protein to recover from your workouts and to help you burn fat as efficiently as possible? Unfortunately 99% of us don’t!

Protein is an essential food for anyone who is exercising and/or trying to lose weight. Use the search tool in thr right column for more information on this.

But 99% of people don’t get enough of it. You should be eating around 1.5 grams of protein for every kilogram you weigh. For example, if you weight 70 kilos you should eat 105 grams of protein a day.

If you are just eating protein at lunch and dinner it is unlikely you will get near you target. Most people get around 1 gram of protein per gram of body-weight.

So what’s the answer?

Eat protein throughout the day. Most people eat lunch around 1pm and dinner 7pm. And between 7pm and 1pm they eat very little protein. So try eating it at breakfast. Eggs is one great example.

Also try snacking on nuts throughout the day as they provide a good source of protein as well.

If you really can’t see yourself doing either of these things, then you should consider a protein powder supplement (use search tool on right for more details).
