After you break down muscle tissue in the gym from resistance training, it needs immediate nutrients to replenish and begin rebuilding itself. This is why it is crucial to have a protein shake right after a weight lifting sesh. Opt for whey protein because it is the fastest digesting protein. Then follow up your protein shake 30 minutes later with a real meal consisting of a lean protein and complex carb. Your post-workout meal is just as, if not MORE important than breakfast! (YES, it is really THAT important).

***Working out is simply the stimulus for change… where you break down the muscle tissue… it is in the sleep and proper nutrition afterward where the real growth and change occurs. That is why it is SO IMPORTANT to sleep, drink water and eat WELL.
