You’re probably busting your butt at the gym lifting heavy weights, but are you supporting your muscle growth by getting enough protein (0.7-1g per lb of bodyweight)? 🍳
If not, I’ve got your back! Here are some high-quality protein ideas for each meal: 🍽
👉🏻 Breakfast: Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, eggs, whey protein shake, turkey bacon. 🍳
