Take Protein Immediately BEFORE and DURING Your Workout! (Not Just AFTER)

You should take / ingest free amino acids or protein (ideally whey isolate) immediately BEFORE and DURING your workout!! This results in a greater “net muscle protein synthesis response” (aka more strength and size benefits) than if the same amount of protein is ingested immediately AFTER your workout!

Think of it as boosting protein synthesis due to greater amino acid availability in your blood, during a time that there’s significantly increased blood flow to your muscles (while you’re working out)! 💪
