Protein is the building block of muscle—without it, muscle growth and repair can’t happen. It’s essential for anyone looking to build or maintain muscle, and the question is: how much protein should you actually eat?

We recommend a minimum of 1.4 grams of protein per kilogram of your body weight daily. For those who want to optimize muscle growth, 1.8 grams per kilogram is a good target. If you’re an elite athlete or someone who trains frequently and intensely, aiming for around 2.2 grams per kilogram can help maximize your gains.

In addition to protein, adding BCAAs to your workout routine can further support muscle growth and recovery by providing essential amino acids directly to your muscles. This combination ensures you’re optimizing your potential for muscle development.

And with that, FITNERO out.
