Industry Presented Webinar: Protein Myths vs. Facts: What active individuals need to know about protein intake, timing and more
Sponsored by: Clif Bar & Company
Active individuals have higher protein needs than sedentary individuals. However, while many active people meet or exceed daily protein recommendations, they may not be distributing their protein intake appropriately throughout each day - missing an opportunity to optimize muscle protein synthesis and support metabolic adaptations to training. Join Dr. Mike Ormsbee as he dispels common myths about protein and discusses the latest research and recommendations on the amount, type, and timing of protein needed to maintain overall health, improve body composition and maximize exercise performance.
Presenter: Mike Ormsbee, PhD, CSCS, FISSN, FACSM
