Bitesize Biohack: Biohack Optimal Body Composition
No matter where we are in our fitness journey, we all need to focus upon optimising our body composition, and in this bitesize biohack, we look at insights from the marvellous Gabrielle Lyon, and how protein consumption might be the key to making sure our physical make-up is at its best.
Key Takeaways
- The key to understanding body composition and optimal body mass is understanding that blood levels of amino acids need to rise to a specific point.
- We should be consuming a minimum of four and half ounces of protein in order to his the best threshold. When we hit it, it triggers muscle.
- Exercise and weight training in particular, must be tailored to the point where the resistance is enough to trigger the stimulus to the muscle tissue.
