157. How to Eat to Build Muscle

from Strong Is a Mindset · host Carrie Holland, MD, CPT

The strength training world is buzzing with conflicting advice about protein timing, carb loading, and whether you need to eat in a surplus to see results. With influencers pushing everything from 1.4 grams of protein per pound to keto approaches for muscle building, it's no wonder so many women feel confused about what actually works.    This week, I'm breaking down exactly what you need to know about eating to build muscle.   We'll look at what the research actually says versus what's become accepted practice in the fitness world, and I'll also address the biggest misconception I see with my clients: the fear that eating carbs while lifting will make them gain fat.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://carriehollandmd.com/157
