Protein Shakes - Are They Need?

PROTEIN SHAKES. ARE THEY NEEDED?

Important note to begin with team; You don’t need to get your protein from a supplement to increase muscle mass. Protein dense whole food sources like meat, poultry, eggs, and even some nuts are all great protein sources that we will always recommend. That being said, how many of us leave our gym class or personal training session and can quickly consume a well balanced high protein salmon poke bowl? If we’re grabbing a banana, a Pret sandwich or eating nothing, we really are missing a trick and a big opportunity.

We beat the protein target drum regularly. Protein helps to build and maintain lean muscle mass. And a high amount of muscle mass is a strong factor in keep us feeling younger, fitter and stronger into later life. We’re future proofing our bodies here people!

We understand that, for some members, hitting the protein targets we set is hard, especially if they’re not used to eating protein. Throw calorie limits into the mix and it can also complicate things (nuts may be a good protein source but, they are also high in calories. and). Eating a chicken breast on its own is certainly not appealing, no matter how hungry you are.

So how do we get 30g+ protein in a more efficient, quick and easy hit. Let us introduce you to Awesome Vegan Protein Powder.
