Why protein?

Protein is arguably the most talked about macronutrient when it comes to bodybuilding, simply because it is used by the body to build and repair lean muscle tissue. And protein is not only essential for bodybuilders, but in fact anyone involved in intense and regular exercise, seeking to build muscle and/or to reduce body fat levels, must increase their protein intake accordingly to prevent muscle atrophy, and to promote muscle hypertrophy.

Protein can of course be obtained from high protein foods in your diet, however there is a huge benefit in consuming extra protein, the most convenient of which being high quality protein powders, or 'protein shakes'.

High protein foods from the supermarket can be very expensive, especially given the volume of food required in order to achieve the levels of protein the body needs for adequate recovery. Protein shakes are the perfect solution, enabling you to consume large doses of protein conveniently, quickly, and cost-efficiently, without any unwanted fats or carbs.

Whey protein concentrate is the most commonly used protein supplement, regarded as one of the best protein sources as it is low in fat and carbohydrate, is absorbed incredibly fast, and has strong values of all 20 essential and non-essential amino acids. LA Whey Gold is particularly high in the most important amino acids; branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) and glutamine. The fast absorption rate of whey protein shakes makes it the ideal post-workout shake, delivering the amino acids to the muscle tissue where they promote protein synthesis, and allowing your muscles to repair, and grow bigger and stronger.
