A main supplement for people that work out is protien shakes. It is a great and simple way to get protien to your body without having to make a meal. Sometimes you are in a hurry after the gym and you cannot make a proper meal with protien so a protian shake provides you the protien you need for muscle repair and growth. 

How does protien help muscle repair and growth? 

Without suitable protein, our bodies can't put together the structures that make up every cell, tissue, and organ, also your body will not generate biochemical substances needed for cardiovascular function, muscle contraction, growth, and healing. Without a suitable amount of protien after working out our muscles will not heal as fast. This could lead to injury because you will be overtraning your muscles.

When is the best time to take protien?

Right after a workout is the best time because than it can get to repairing the micro tears in your muscles. 

 

Why is taking a protien shake better than eating a meal after a workout?

A protien shake will reach your muscles much faster than if you eat solid food because food takes much longer to break down, digest, and hit your muscles. 

How much protien should you take? 

The minimum amount of protien you should take to build and repair muscle is 1 gram of protien per pound of body  weight.
