Building muscle mass has a lot to do with your diet. Your muscles may get more defined with plenty of weight lifting and exercise, but if you don’t have a calorie surplus then they won’t get that big. It’s just not possible.
So as long as you’re eating around your calorie maintenance you won’t get huge.
Make SURE that your nutrition plan is completely dialed in, as it is the most important part of your success. As you get leaner you will look more “ripped” So you can reduce your body fat or increase your mass. You cannot do both at the same time. Keep your diet, training and whey shakes up!! Good luck. Whey protein helps athletes maintain a healthy immune system by increasing the levels of glutathione in the body. Glutathione is an anti-oxidant required for a healthy immune system and exercise and resistance training may reduce glutathione levels. Whey protein helps keep athletes healthy and strong to perform their best. Whey protein is a rich source of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), containing the highest known levels of any natural food source. BCAAs are important for athletes since unlike the other essential amino acids, they are metabolized directly into muscle tissue and are the first ones used during periods of exercise and resistance training. Whey protein provides the body with BCAAs to replenish depleted levels and start repairing and rebuilding lean muscle tissue. I consume a chemical free whey product minus the fillers and additives from http://www.bulkprotein.com
Whey protein is an excellent source of the essential amino acid, leucine. Leucine is important for athletes as it plays a key role in promoting muscle protein synthesis and muscle growth. Research has shown that individuals who exercise benefit from diets high in leucine and have more lean muscle tissue and less body fat compared to individuals whose diet contains lower levels of leucine. Whey protein isolate has approximately 50% more leucine than soy protein isolate.
Whey protein is a soluble, easy to digest protein and is efficiently absorbed into the body. It is often referred to as a “fast” protein for its ability to quickly provide nourishment to muscles.
I agree with Frank.
