Ladies, who’s ready to build muscle? Getting enough protein is KEY. Let’s break down the basics.

1. How much muscle do you lose as you age? After the age of 30, you lose approximately 3 – 8% of muscle mass every decade.

2. How much protein do you need to build muscle? An average person needs about .5 – 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight to build muscle.

3. How much protein should you eat per meal? Your body is only capable of absorbing about 30 grams of protein per meal.

Spacing up your protein intake and eating protein dense foods such as chicken, fish, pork, tofu, cottage cheese, beans, and Greek yogurt can help you achieve your goals.
