Today we are going to talk about the importance of protein post workout. When you exercise your muscles tear, so that they can rebuild bigger and stronger. Within 30 minutes after your workout you should take in some kind of liquid protein. In liquid form it doesn't have to be broken down before your body can use it, so the protein gets to your muscles fast enough to aid them in repairing.
Be mindful of what you drink after your workouts read labels and ingredients. Do research online before you buy protein shakes from the store. Many can be dangerous or counter productive because of high sugar or bad ingredients. I use Herbalife 24 Rebuild Strength because it is banned substance tested and has a great protein to carb ratio (and it takes like chocolate milk :) for more information about Herbalife email me at stdeal89@gmail.com
It is also important to know that if you are strength training (i.e. weights, muscle building exercises like squats, lunges and crunches) to not work the same muscle groups two days in a row. This allows them to heal before you begin the tearing and repairing process again. So split your days into arms, legs, core, back and shoulder, lower, upper etc..)
You can do this!
