Getting adequate protein everyday is crucial for building muscle, burning fat, being strong, and all sorts of other good stuff so it’s a no brainer that it’s one of the first, if not the first, things we take aim at.

As a person just beginning their training and embarking on this journey towards a healthier lifestyle, increasing protein means so much more than just nutrition.

In order to consume enough protein you have to make it a goal. Usually we start with picking one meal and focusing on getting a serving of protein for that one meal, everyday for a week. This one step incorporates goal setting, discipline, accountability, building habits, planning, and meal prep which are all required throughout your program in increasing fashion.

If the person succeeds in week one we can progress by a small, achievable increment. This teaches management of expectations, patience, and how to pace progress. If they’re unable to adhere to getting a serving of protein in then we take a look at what prevents them from doing so and work together to find a solution for that issue. This requires self analysis, problem solving, and behaviour change. It teaches them how to adapt when the going gets tough.

How important is protein?

More important than you think.
