Now, many have debated in the past as to whether or not to consume protein powder or supplements when training, however the individuals who trumpet against taking a protein supplement clearly just ignore, or perhaps, do not educate themselves on the benefi ts and in most cases the advantages of taking a powder vs. conventional foods such as chicken breasts. Chicken, eggs, red meat, as well as other foods sources obviously contain protein- and you do get pro-tein from them when consumed, how-ever, the rate of absorption is not fast enough to directly benefi t the muscles being trained, especially right before you train. Be honest with yourself, do you see yourself eating an 8 oz. chicken breast with 6 egg whites right before you train? I didn’t think so. The
role of supplement protein needs to be a foundation when you train. Much like taking a multi vitamin every day, protein needs to be at the top of your list if you are any type of fi tness enthusiast.
The most common type of protein is WHEY Protein, not to be confused with WEIGH as in gaining weight. Trust me, I have come across people thinking that

taking Whey Protein means they will gain Weight. In any case the most bio-available type of protein is Whey and most supplement companies produce a whey protein.
Whey protein comes from milk such as in cows. In milk there are two types of protein, Whey and Casein. You might be familiar with the two types when off ered in a protein supplement. Whey is the most bio-available form of protein be-cause of its fast absorption process that allows it to feed the muscle quickly for protein synthesis. This is why it is highly recommended to take 20--30grams of Whey before you train.
If you take a whey protein BEFORE training it allows for the work you’re about to put your muscles through the chance to have fuel to help build more muscle. Research studies conducted where individuals who took whey before they trained saw an increase of protein synthesis by 70% than compared to in-dividuals who did not take whey before
they trained.
Without a doubt, these facts do not lie. If you are serious about gaining and sustaining muscle then you need to start or continue taking a whey protein sup-plement.
What diff erent types are out there? There are many but I am only going to cover a few which are easily available in most retail stores.
Now, what would a good eBook about Protein be with a nutrition and workout plan to follow? In the next few pages I will lay out a 4 week plan to get you SHREDDED for the Summer months and to help keep you informed with helpful tips from Prolab Nutrition’s own Moji Oluwa.

The month long program has you executing the same workout for
four weeks.
First Week:Use 60 Second rest periods in between each set of each exercise and keep track of your weight used for each ex-ercise
seccond Week:Use 60 Second rest periods in between each set of each exercise. Increase the weight during this week for each exer-cise
THIRD Week:Use 30 Second rest Periods in between each set of each exercise. Use the same amount of weight you did for each exercise from the fi rst week
Fourth Week:Use 30 Second Rest Periods in be-tween each set of each exercise. Use the same amount of weight you did for each exercise from the 2nd week
By doing this progression for 4 weeks, you should be doing the same weight you started with in the beginning, only now you cut your rest periods by HALF in the end. By doing this you will notice that you will be moving faster through the workout by the fi rst week, yet push-ing more weight. Congratulations you just fi nished one MesoCycle of Training using Linear Peiodization and increasing both Strength and Endurance in as little as 4 weeks.

The leader is of course Whey Protein. Whey Protein as I said before comes from cows milk. As a result of its fast ab-sorption it is best taken at the beginning of a workout. It is recommended to take anywhere from 20-30grams before you train. Additionally, you should consume 30-40 grams after you workouts to pre-vent muscle breakdown. A good whey protein should also have key essential amino acids included in the blend. Re-cent studies have also confi rmed that in some cases a Whey Blend with other types of protein can be better than just a standard Whey Protein only, such as Whey Isolate with a blend of essential amino acids.
For those who are interested in fat loss, Whey Pro-tein can also be used to kick start the metabolism fi rst thing in the morning by taking 10 grams right after you wake up in the morn-ing.

Whey Isolate Protein When and Why should I take it?

Whey Protein Isolate is a great form of whey protein because of the low fat and lactose free benefi ts. Most don’t have to worry about having an upset stomach or other gastrointestinal issues and can feel confi dent in consuming a whey Isolate. Additionally, whey isolate has many ben-efi cial amino acids such as Leucine and Cysteine which both help with muscle growth. I would suggest that you con-sume the same amounts 20-30g of Whey Isolate before you train and afterwards 30-40grams.

Casein Protein is known as the slow protein. By slow I mean slow digestion and absorption. This is benefi cial be-cause Casein can be used when your body needs it most. Before you sleep it is recommended to take Casein protein so that your body is fed while at rest or sleeping during those 8 hours. Taking Casein Protein directly before bedtime is also essential for fat loss as it keeps your metabolism working for longer periods throughout the night as you sleep.
Overall, taking protein powder is essen-tial when you are serious about gaining and maintaining muscle.
