A hot topic, with bodybuilding competitions on the rise, is how to increase lean muscle mass. Protein is important for gaining lean muscle mass, but it is all about what type of protein, the amount and the timing of when you consume the protein. You want to make sure that the types of protein you are consuming are considered a lean source of protein.
It’s also important to space out protein consumption throughout the day versus consuming large portions in one sitting. From my research, I have found that the optimal amount of protein to consume in a sitting is between 20-30 grams to gain lean muscle mass making this a perfect snack option! Enjoy!
