Protein intake, are you eating enough? #Ep 003
Glen and Mike dive into the hot topic of protein intake and tackle some of the old myths.
How much protein should you be having, especially if you train?
How to calculate your protein needs?
How much protein do you need as you get older?
How to get protein in, if you are vegan or vegetarian.
*Disclaimer- we are not doctors or dietitian's. We are speaking from anecdotal evidence. In saying that, Glen has worked in a medical industry for over 20 years, with specific focus in age care and longevity.
*Muscle protein synthesis (where your body absorbs protein to repair and grows muscle fibres) studies show it's at least 40-50 grams, new studies as of December 2023 shows it could be up to 100 grams. This is only based off one study.
*We do give a shout out to Bulk Nutrients, a Tasmania brand.
We have no sponsorship to the company, other than selling their products in the gym and we just recommend them/ their products.
*Correction- a full size chicken breast has more like 40g of protein. 100 grams of chicken breast has about 30 grams of protein.
