But I'd argue that protein frequency, which is the amount of protein feedings you have across the day, and also the spacing of those feedings is important if your goal is to optimize muscle growth." Rachel Gregory Todays Questions: What's a good workout split for 5-6 days a week, for wanting to build muscle? I want to gain muscle. Is it necessary to eat every few hours? I usually eat 3 meals a day. To reduce cellulite, what do you recommend first, fat loss or muscle building? Top Takeaways: The optimal training split to get the most out of your workout and balance your busy schedule Basics on how to optimize your muscle building potential A simple formula to use to know how much protein to consume daily Benefits of incorporating more protein feedings throughout the day Show Notes: [0:00] Welcome back to MetFlex and Chill q&a day!
