Whey Protein Powder
Whey Protein - a lot of scientific studies have been done on the
benefits of Whey Protein Supplementation including:
December 2001 - Consuming Protein Supplements Can Help Deter the
Effects of Overtraining!
Protein intake of approx. 0.88 grams per pound of body weight resulted
in increased prevention of overtraining. This study was conducted at
Ball State University on 17 weight-trained men. They were put on a four
week "overtraining" program were they did 8-12 rep maxes for three sets,
eight exercises for the first two weeks, then five sets, five exercises
for 3-5 rep maxes for the next two weeks. The men were chosen to receive
either an amino acid supplement or a placebo for the duration of the
four weeks (0.88 grams/lb body weight/day). Those that were given the
amino acids had measureable positive changes in total testosterone, the
ratio of testosterone to the protein that transports it, and hemoglobin
compared to those given a placebo. This proves that adequate protein
consumption is the key to making gains! Be sure to get enough (approx.
1gram per lb. of body weight).
December 2001 - Protein Taken With Carbs is Better than Protein Alone
for Building Muscle!
This study, conducted at University of Texas Medical Branch, measured
the amount of uptake of the amino acid L-phenylalanine into healthy leg
muscle tissue in one of three protein shakes. The shakes were consumed
one and two hours after intense leg training and provided about 6 grams
of protein, 34 grams of carbs, or both per shake for a 150 bodybuilder.
The L-phenylalanine uptake in the protein and carb shake was measured as
being three times higher than the carb shake and roughly twice as great
as the amino shake! So, there you have it! As you know, the post workout
shake is the most critical meal for your increased anabolism
twice.
