Frequently Asked Questions

When should I take protein around gym workouts?
Pre-workout (1-2 hrs): 20-30g protein with carbs. Post-workout (within 2 hrs): 20-40g protein for recovery. Spread remaining protein evenly across meals for optimal muscle synthesis.
Do I need protein powder or can I use food?
Food sources work well: paneer, dal, eggs, chicken, fish, Greek yogurt. Protein powder is convenient post-workout but not essential. Aim for 1.6-2.2g protein per kg body weight daily.
