If you're getting in that, you know, one gram per pound of body weight, you know, that's for the vast majority of people, that's going to be more than enough for you to really like maximize the benefits of protein.
Well, I think, you know, the first most important thing, and I say this as a person who loves nutrition, who has a PhD in nutrition, who devoted their life to nutrition, resistance training is by far the most powerful tool to change your body composition.
And it's not really even close.
You can...
You can eat all the protein you want.
You can eat an appropriate amount of calories.
You can sleep enough.
You can do all those things.
But if you're not creating the stimulus to turn over that muscle protein and create new protein or new muscle protein, can you gain some lean body mass?
Yes.
Is it going to be really appreciable?
No.
And so really...
You know, I look at protein intake now or nutrition now as more of an anti-catabolic, right?
So if you don't resistance train and you eat enough calories and you eat enough protein, can you put on a small amount of lean mass?
Sure.
But more of what I look at is it's going to help prevent lean mass loss during catabolic periods like calorie deficit, certain disease states, and aging.
Hmm.
But yeah, but really resistance training plus protein is a synergistic effect where, yes, you will.
Regardless, you will add muscle mass from resistance training.
