Pre-Workout Vs. Post-Workout Protein: When It Matters Most

Pre-Workout Protein

Consuming protein before a workout can improve muscle endurance and strength

Pre-workout protein intake helps prevent muscle breakdown

It can provide sustained energy levels throughout the workout

Pre-workout protein intake lays the groundwork for efficient muscle repair and growth post-exercise

Enhances nutrient delivery to muscles & ensures necessary blocks building for optimal performance

Post-Workout Protein:

Provides necessary amino acids for muscle repair and recovery & reduce post-exercise tenderness.

Promotes muscle growth and adaptation of muscle tissue in response to exercise

Restores glycogen depleted during the workout and supports energy recovery

Post-workout protein consumption maximises nutrient absorption

It reduces muscle fatigue & speeds up the restoring of muscle function
