Saturday is one of our weekly gym-free recovery days. This means that we prioritize ‘us’ time, chilling, relaxing, recovering, eating healthy high-protein foods supplanted with plenty of whole plant-based foods, and doing nonexhaustive activities that are done for adventure, fun, family, relationship, calm, rejuvenating and quality of life time.

Welcome to yet another fact-based article from Strength By Fitness.
What happens if you lift weights and either consume protein following the RDA or use a high-protein plan with 1.6 grams per kilo of body weight and day for omnivores ( 1.8 for plant-based ). Double the progression is the answer.
You are welcome to tune in to episode 2 of our YouTube podcast as we discuss Protein Et Al. Namely the Fact-based importance of high-protein foods for your health, body composition, and fitness across your entire health span.
