Eating "Enough" Protein But Not Growing? LISTEN UP!

A common myth in fitness is that more protein automatically means more muscle. But the truth is, your protein needs depend on your lean body mass, not just your scale weight. And even more importantly than protein is having an effective training session. Most people think they are not growing muscle because they are not getting enough protein when it really comes from their ineffective training. In this video, we break down why not everyone needs 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight, and why overconsuming protein can do more harm than good—especially if you’re neglecting recovery, sleep, and other nutrients.

You’ll also learn:
Why protein isn’t the only factor in muscle growth
The role of omega-3s and vitamin D3 in recovery
How anti-inflammatory nutrition improves performance
What a balanced approach to nutrition looks like for strength and hypertrophy
How athletes and everyday lifters should think about protein differently
The importance of quality over quantity when it comes to protein sources

Whether you're a beginner or advanced lifter, this video will help you think beyond just protein shakes and focus on what really builds muscle.
