More protein does not necessarily mean more muscle. For most people doing resistance training, gains in muscle and strength appear to plateau around 1.6 g/kg/day. But there’s a good reason to push protein higher when the goal is fat loss or body recomposition. Higher protein intake can: - increase...

Supplementing with protein during strength training can increase gains in muscle size by approximately 27%, even when baseline protein intake is already considered adequate. The current RDA for protein, 0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight per day, is meant to prevent deficiency, not to optimize muscle growth or performance. Increasing intake to 1.5x the RDA leads to greater improvements in both muscle size and strength when combined with resistance exercise. Doubling the RDA is even better. Meta-analyses suggest that around 1.6 g/kg/day of protein is sufficient to maximize gains in muscle strength and fat-free mass, with potential (though smaller) benefits observed at higher intakes up to 2.2 g/kg/day for those aiming to fully optimize muscle growth and recovery (like athletes). This highlights how conservative the RDA truly is and why higher protein intakes are important, particularly for individuals engaging in regular strength training or other forms of physical activity.

Most people don't need more protein to build muscle. They need to train more. Protein isn’t the main driver of adaptation, training is. Muscle growth, strength, and metabolic health are primarily stimulated by mechanical tension and progressive overload, not just a higher protein intake. Protein’s role is supportive. It helps repair and build after you’ve given your body a reason to adapt. But without a meaningful training stimulus, more protein doesn’t translate into better outcomes (e.g., more strength, greater lean mass).

Up to 30% of the weight lost while dieting can come from lean muscle mass—but the right training and nutrition can help you preserve muscle, which is key for metabolic health and reducing the risk of sarcopenia. You can lose fat and gain muscle at the same time—a process called body recomposition—if you train and eat strategically. The most important factor is resistance training. Lifting heavy 2–3 times per week is essential for maintaining and building muscle while losing fat. Without it, muscle mass inevitably declines. Nutrition also plays a major role. Eating in a slight calorie deficit—around 10–20% below maintenance—allows for steady fat loss without sacrificing muscle, energy levels, or training performance. Protein intake is another key priority. Research shows that consuming 1.8 to 2.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day is optimal for muscle retention and growth during a calorie deficit, and going even higher may provide additional benefits. Beyond training and nutrition, recovery is just as crucial. Adequate sleep, stress management, and tracking progress help ensure you’re making real, sustainable changes. Get this right and you have a powerful strategy to build muscle and lose fat. If you want to learn more about optimizing body recomposition, improving VO2 max, and enhancing brain health, tune into the latest episode of the FoundMyFitness podcast, where and I break it all down with insights from top experts.

Muscle strength is arguably one of the most important predictors of healthspan and longevity—far more than muscle mass alone. Low muscle strength is associated with a 50% higher risk of early death. The good news is that strength can be regained at any age through resistance training, even in your 90s. One study showed that 90-year-old participants increased their strength by 174%, walking speed by 48%, and thigh muscle mass by 9% after just 8 weeks of high-intensity resistance training (PMID: 2342214). This highlights that age-related strength loss is primarily a reversible decline in muscle quality—not just lost muscle mass. But there’s another key piece: protein. For older adults, consuming about 1.6g/kg of body weight in protein daily has been shown to maximize gains in both muscle strength and mass. Combining resistance training with adequate protein intake is a game-changer for improving biological resilience, mobility, and overall quality of life as we age. I cover all this and more in Episode 97: The Science of Protein. It’s a must-watch for anyone looking to improve their health or help loved ones do the same. Watch Episode 97 now:

Protein is essential. But more protein is NOT always better for fat loss. If your meals are very lean, your body can convert excess protein into glucose through gluconeogenesis instead of burning stored fat. That can keep insulin higher than expected and slow metabolic progress, especially for people healing insulin resistance or trying to stay in deep ketosis. If you’re still hungry after eating, the answer is usually not more protein. It’s more fat. Fat increases satiety, stabilizes energy, and signals your body that it’s safe to access stored fuel instead of defending it. This is what eating fat-forward actually means.

On average, most people lose 1% of their muscle mass per year and 3% of their strength per year after age 50. It's even worse if you're inactive—strength drops by 4% annually in people who don't engage in resistance exercise! Strength training and a high protein intake can slow or mitigate age-related declines in muscle, and this is important. More muscle enhances metabolism, improves insulin sensitivity, and protects against diabetes. But muscle also safeguards against falls and fractures, which can be a literal death sentence for older adults— up to 58% of older adults who experience a hip fracture die within 12 months of the injury. The evidence is clear: more muscle lowers mortality risk, while less muscle and a higher fat mass increases it. And while resistance exercise is the most important factor for building and maintaining muscle, optimizing protein intake is a proven strategy to increase healthspan at every age. Discover the optimal protein intake tailored to your age, physical activity, and goals in my new episode, The Science of Protein (Episode 97), now available on all major platforms. Watch now:

Animal protein beats plant protein hands down when it comes to building muscle Three reasons why: • Higher protein density • Better digestibility • More complete amino acid profile If you’re plant-based, you can still build muscle, but you’ll need to work a bit harder harder—combining foods, supplementing, and eating more overall to match the anabolic potential of animal-based protein

8 key takeaways on protein intake: 1) Most people should consume 1.2-1.6 g/kg (0.54-0.72 g/lb) per day, and calculate needs based on lean body mass 2) The post-exercise "anabolic window" isn't as narrow as once believed — total daily intake matters far more than exact timing around workouts 3) Try to distribute protein evenly across the day (but again, total daily intake is much more important) 4) Pre-sleep protein intake (~30g) can be beneficial, especially for older adults and athletes 5) High-quality supplements like whey and casein proteins offer targeted benefits (and even if you meet your protein needs through diet, supplementation can provide additional advantages) 6) Animal proteins are generally superior to plant proteins for maximizing muscle protein synthesis 7) Concerns about high protein intake harming healthy kidneys are largely unfounded 8) High protein intake doesn't reduce longevity or promote cancer growth if you exercise (exercise helps direct amino acids and growth factors toward beneficial uses)

Older adults need twice as much protein per meal as younger adults to get the same amount of muscle protein synthesis. That's because muscles become less sensitive to amino acids in response to protein intake, a phenomenon known as anabolic resistance. Most people think this is due to aging, but physical inactivity is the real culprit. People are less active as they get older. Only about 30% of young adults and just 20% of older adults regularly engage in some form of resistance training. Older adults who stay physically active or who engage in resistance exercise right before consuming protein don't experience anabolic resistance. Their anabolic response is identical to that of younger adults. How do I interpret this? If you're older, you might need a higher daily and per-meal protein dose (30–40 grams versus 20–30 grams for someone younger) to maximize muscle protein synthesis and increase or maintain muscle mass. But it also means that staying physically active and strength training often is the key to preventing "age-related" anabolic resistance. It's not inevitable.

Eating protein before bed may improve muscle mass and aid recovery — if you lift weights. In the evening, especially in the hours before bed, our bodies are at their least insulin-sensitive. As melatonin levels rise, it interacts with receptors in the pancreas, signaling a reduction in insulin secretion. However, for the purposes of maximizing our adaptive response to resistance training, sleep is a period of long unbroken fasting. Evidence shows that during exercise training, consuming 30 grams of protein before enhances gains in muscle mass and strength. There’s two ways to look at this: One way is through the lens of time-restricted eating and the other is through the lens of actively optimizing for muscle protein synthesis on training days. Pre-sleep protein is just one way to increase total daily protein intake. A low-calorie protein shake on training days can support muscle growth by enhancing protein synthesis. However, keep in mind the natural drop in insulin sensitivity near bedtime, especially on non-training days when exercise isn’t boosting insulin sensitivity.

Increasing protein intake is one of the most important dietary changes older adults can make Typical protein consumption among that age bracket (0.8–0.9 g/kg/day) barely meets the outdated RDA Yet multiple studies clearly show adults need closer to ~1.2 g/kg (~50% more) daily to avoid negative protein balance Simply put, the current RDA is not enough If you’re serious about aging well, prioritize protein

Protein timing and distribution are important, but not more important than simply eating enough protein. This doesn’t mean timing is irrelevant. Spreading protein relatively evenly across the day is a reasonable strategy for maximizing opportunities to stimulate muscle protein synthesis. But emerging evidence challenges the idea that the body can only “use” 25-30 grams of protein at a time. In one study, researchers compared 25 g vs. 100 g of protein after exercise. The 100-g dose produced a greater and more prolonged increase in muscle protein synthesis, with very little of the additional amino acids being oxidized. The extra protein wasn’t simply “wasted.” Larger protein meals take longer to digest and absorb, extending the period during which amino acids are available to support tissue protein synthesis. Practically, consuming your daily protein across 2-3 larger meals is not inherently inferior simply because individual meals contain far more than 25-30 grams.

How to lose fat and gain muscle at the same time: – Keep calories 10% above maintenance, roughly 200 to 300 calories over. The surplus should come primarily from quality protein. – Protein is the key variable: aim for 1 to 1.5 grams per pound of body weight. Studies show that adding 80 to 100 grams of protein on top of habitual intake leads to fat loss, not fat gain. – Distribution of protein throughout the day matters less than hitting the total daily target.

It was associated with progressively lower mortality, up to ~33% lower risk at ~1.6 g/kg/day compared to the RDA Even in the most extreme cases, such as very sick patients receiving high-dose IV protein directly into their veins, research finds no signal of kidney harm For typical healthy adults who exercise and want to age well, the real danger isn’t eating “too much” protein, but eating too little, not training enough, and slowly losing muscle and resilience year after year

How to optimize protein and carbohydrate intake for muscle growth and recovery, according to Andy Galpin, PhD: – Total daily protein target: 1g per pound of body weight (2.2g per kg). Stay at or above this number. Protein timing and quality matter far less. – For strength training: aim for a 1:1 protein to carbohydrate ratio around your workout (roughly 35g protein and 35g carbohydrates). – For hard conditioning workouts: shift to a 3:1 or 4:1 carbohydrate to protein ratio (roughly 35g protein and 100 to 140g carbohydrates). – For a mixed strength and conditioning session: a 2:1 carbohydrate to protein ratio is the target (roughly 35g protein and 60 to 70g carbohydrates). – Timing is flexible: nutrients can be consumed pre, mid or post workout. What matters most is that they are consumed close to training. Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D.

Protein timing and quality matter far less. – For strength training: aim for a 1:1 protein to carbohydrate ratio around your workout (roughly 35g protein and 35g carbohydrates). – For hard conditioning workouts: shift to a 3:1 or 4:1 carbohydrate to protein ratio (roughly 35g protein and 100 to 140g carbohydrates). – For a mixed strength and conditioning session: a 2:1 carbohydrate to protein ratio is the target (roughly 35g protein and 60 to 70g carbohydrates). – Timing is flexible: nutrients can be consumed pre, mid or post workout. What matters most is that they are consumed close to training. Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D.

Intermittent fasting naturally reduces daily calorie intake by ~200 calories, making it an effective tool for fat loss Even without when calories stay constant, intermittent fasting improves metabolic health (glucose regulation, fasting glucose, HbA1c) and lipids On the slightly longer end (~18 hours fasting, 6-hour eating), blood pressure also improves Important note: Just make sure you're getting enough protein (~1.2-1.6 grams/kg body weight) to protect lean muscle
