Protein is queen when it comes to maintaining muscle and energy.
As we hit our 40s and beyond, our bodies naturally start losing muscle mass. That’s why getting enough protein isn’t just for bodybuilders, it’s essential for all of us!
Without it, we feel sluggish, struggle to recover from workouts, and even see more changes in our body composition than we’d like.
The good news? Prioritizing protein at every meal helps maintain muscle, stabilize blood sugar, and keep energy levels steady throughout the day.
I like to aim for a solid source like eggs, fish, lean meats, as well as veggies with protein to keep your body strong and thriving.
Do you know how many grams of protein you’re getting and how much is enough protein in your day? I aim for 110-120 grams and weigh 116 lbs.
Every meal has at least 30 grams of protein. Spreading it out through the day is key.
