Episode 42: Protein 101

Proteins (amino acids) are an essential macronutrient, meaning they are necessary for our bodies to function properly on a daily basis. That said, our bodies can’t naturally produce essential amino acids so we need to get them from the foods and supplements that we consume. In our culture today, carbs and fats get the most attention while protein has unfortunately taken a backseat. This has made it normal to under-consume protein and over-consume carbs and fats. We break down the importance behind making protein a focal part of your diet and macro split. In this episode, we give you guys 5 tangible tips to help you hit your protein targets with ease.
