RESISTANCE TRAINING
BENEFITS (PRE & INTRA)
Significantly increases strength by 22 - 30% compared to non supplementation. Pre-exercise & intra protein ingestion prevents negative muscle breakdown for energy and increases protein synthesis (leading to muscle maintenance & growth).
​
BENEFITS (POST)
Resistance training stimulates protein synthesis but also stimulates protein breakdown, resulting in an overall negative protein balance after exercise. To prevent negative protein balance and restore glycogen levels, correct nutrient intake must be consumed post resistance training.
BENEFITS (PRE)
Optimise endurance performance by 20%
BENEFITS
Helps to reduce the risk of injury from training. Can include activities such as yoga and Pilates.
​
Can enhance mental wellbeing through relaxation and proper breathing.
