HOW MUCH PROTEIN SHOULD I EAT?

People are often quite surprised to hear about the increase in required Protein by the body if you lift weights with any real intensity (& that can include body weight & boot camp type exercise).

When we exercise or lift weight we break down muscle tissue, what repairs muscle tissue you ask?? Protein does!

After you finish a workout you are actually weaker than when you started, what you do (rest & eat)between leaving the gym & coming back for your next workout will determine how quickly you move forward with the results everyone wants.

WEIGHT & FAT LOSS – BROOKVALE SYDNEY

Weight Loss  

Our total number of Fat Cells can actually increase, but not decrease! Fat cells don’t just get bigger as you put on weight! ?

It’s called Fat Cell Hyper-Phasic.

Generally the number of Fat Cells you have going through adolescence determines the minimum amount of Fat Cells you will have for the rest of your life.
This is why a kid that struggles with his or her weight growing up will tend to struggle with weight issues more than others their entire life.
It also makes it a lot easier for someone that has been over weight before to put on weight again.
Once a fat cell is as big as it can get it starts to be replicated, once this new fat cell is replicated it is near impossible to lose it.
The new Fat Cell can be shrunk but it will always be there.
