If you haven't heard, getting adequate protein intake is very beneficial for adding muscle tone and losing weight.
That's right, protein is not just for meatheads looking to beef up. The science has shown that it is also very beneficial for the general population for health and weight loss.
It keeps you satiated (full) for longer periods of time than carbs and fat. That means getting enough protein in will keep you from getting hungry as often and leads to eating fewer calories.
In fact, one study showed that higher protein diets cause people to eat several hundred fewer calories. That's enough to make quite a big impact on most peoples diets.
Despite the benefits, most people do not get an optimal amount of protein. In fact, I'd say 90% of my clients are getting well below what's best for them when they first come to me.
We get it, adding in healthy protein sources can be tough. Especially if you overcook them (see what I did there?).
Often, protein sources take forever to cook and don't end up tasting all that great.
Fortunately, pro trainer and fitness bikini competitor Emily Clark knows how to make some delicious, protein filled recipes, that don't take forever to cook.
1. Chicken Lettuce Wraps (My personal fav)
2. Turkey Chilli
Yummmmm, hope you enjoyed them!
