For Exercise Day
Performance Benefits
Protein is important for growth and repair of muscle after training. Consuming a good source of protein in the morning helps to stabilise our blood sugars, sustain energy and keep us feeling satisfied for longer.
Health Benefits
When we are in a calorie deficit, it is important to consume sufficient protein to maintain muscle mass while losing fat. Muscle mass counts for more than strength and performance, it plays an important role in our health and longevity.
