Notes: (1) The idea behind this chart is to show you how you can get your required protein through the day. Adjust the chart according to your needs. (2) This sample with the protein powder in the morning is for those of you who don't eat breakfast. Ideally, you need protein within 30 minutes of the end of your workout - preferably liquid (whey powder) protein that is quick to digest. So, be smart and take the time to eat breakfast. Milk, yogurt etc.
