Lewis’s Myth of the

month

The more protein you have, the

more muscle you will gain.

Companies selling protein supple-

ments claim this but why wouldn’t

they; the more you have, the soon-

er you need to re-stock and the

more money you spend.

Having a protein shake within

20mins after finishing your

workout provides supply of amino

acid building blocks the body

needs for repair and building of

new muscle tissue. The rest

should come from natural sources.

Depending on your goal, having up

to 2g of protein per 1kg of body

weight per day is sufficient.

Proteins

It’s well known that protein is a very important nutrient in a diet; it is a key for building and repairing muscles. Chicken is well known for being rich in protein and less fatty than other meats such as pork and beef. A typical 86g ½ chicken breast (skinless and boneless) contains 27g of lean protein. This is a natural source of proteins.

Place a Kettlebell on the ground between

your feet. Position your feet wide and grasp

the Kettlebell with two hands. Set your hips

back as far as possible and bend your

knees. Keep your chest and head up. This is

your starting position. Begin by extending

the hips and knees, simultaneously pulling

the Kettlebell to your shoulders, raising

your elbows as you do so. Reverse the mo-

tion to return to the starting position.
