Q: I want to gain weight in muscle, are protein shakes a good?
A: Yes, if you are trying to add lean muscle and avoid gaining body fat, protein shakes will help. You should still aim to get most of your protein from real food and use protein shakes to complement your diet.
Downing a protein shake after your workout can actually help your body recover faster from the stress of training by feeding your muscles and refueling your energy stores.
Aim to consume about 0.8 to 1.0 gram of protein for each pound that you weigh.
(0.8 to 1.0 g) x (Your Weight) = Daily Protein Intake
So, if you weigh 175 pounds, you should try to consume 140-175 grams of protein per day.
Another part of proper building muscle growth is your diet. I'm going to show you some female bodybuilder tips that can help you out. The first point I want to make is that the easiest thing you can do is get a good night of sleep. The main time that muscles grow is while you sleep, so obviously the easiest thing you can do is make sure you're getting a full night of it.
