If you want to achieve your physical appearance goals, protein is the way forward, it packs on the muscle, strips away the fat, and get you to that end result in lightning speed. But those results require that you only consume the highest quality protein you can get your mitts on. But not only quality matters here, to achieve that ripped look you need to, on a daily basis, feed your body 1 gram of protein for every single pound of body weight.

Taking The Number One Spot – Whey Protein
If you want your protein to be sucked into your muscles as quickly as possible, whey protein is the way to go. A study performed at a University in Indiana also found that consuming 1 gram per pound of body weight helps your body recover quicker after every workout, avoiding the plateau of over training.
If you are lactose intolerant try using whey protein isolate as it contains less lactose.
For every 20-30 grams of whey protein you should also mix in 40-50 grams of carbs and consume before or after training, or better still both. The carbs are need for the energy during your workout, and they also help to replace the glycogen you have spent during your session. The refined sugars found in carbs cause your body to release extra insulin into your bloodstream. This insulin then enters your muscles and enhances protein synthesis.
Quality protein is vital for the development of the abdominals. After you have finished reading this page check out this article for more information – How To Get Six Pack Abs Workout
And The Silver Medal Goes To – Soya Protein Isolate
Recent medical research has concluded that soya protein can build and strengthen muscles equally as well as its whey protein counterpart. An added bonus comes with the soya containing little to no traces of saturated fats. Soya is also densely packed with rich iron, which can carry o lot more oxygen to the muscles during aerobic exercise.
It’s been speculated recently in the fitness community that soya protein can cause man boobs. But I have never seen any evidence to support these claims so I personally take such theory’s with a pinch of salt. (And you should do your own research, don’t take my opinions as your own)
I recommend eating an orange with every soya protein shake. This is because Vitamin C increases your bodies absorption rate of iron, thus allowing even more oxygen enter your muscles.
