When we lift weights, our muscle fibres tear/break -
which causes the all-too-familiar post-exercise aching (something we usually
associate with exercising muscles we don’t normally use and/or haven't used in a
while). Having a protein shake after your workout will help to speed up the
repairing process. Your body will use the protein shake (and other nutrients from
food) to replace your broken muscle tissues with more new muscle tissues (more than
you had there before) – which results in your muscles growing/expanding.
Millions of people all over the world use whey protein to speed
up their recovery rate and increase their muscle size and strength. And the
best protein shake will provide your body with the very best mixture of amino
acids for muscle growth, strength and a speedy recovery.
One of the main benefits of whey protein is that it is
fast ingesting – which means it gets to your broken muscle tissues
fast.

As well as helping to increase muscle size and strength, whey protein can act as an
antioxidant to boost your body’s immune system.
Who uses whey protein?
Whey protein is normally used by athletes and bodybuilders to aid muscle repair
and growth. But this isn’t the only use for whey protein. It is now more commonly being used
to aid weight loss, help people with dietary problems, support the diets of people with ill
health and help infants get the protein their body needs at an early
age.
