Episode notes
Muscle Growth Essentials
- Consume sufficient protein and engage in resistance training to build muscle mass.
- These two factors stimulate muscle protein synthesis, essential for muscle growth.
Rethinking Protein RDA
- The RDA for protein intake is often underestimated, leading to potential muscle loss.
- Aim for at least 1.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight daily to avoid being catabolic.
Protein Timing and Aging
- Spread protein intake throughout the day, especially as you age, for optimal muscle protein synthesis.
- Older adults need higher and more frequent protein intake due to reduced sensitivity to amino acids.
